A soup cookoff with a Boston twist
If you happen to be from Boston, you already know there’s no need to ask why. For everyone else – culinary team building events are hotter than ever. Chowder is one of the greatest foods ever. And our Boston-based crew knows how to do it right.
Working in happy, high-energy teams, participants will turn cartons of cream, butter, onions, corn, potatoes, eggs, fish or clams into cauldrons of prize-worthy chowder. Choose fish, clam and/or corn chowder. And did we mention there will be judges? After all, this is a competition.
TeamBonding will bring all the fresh ingredients you need for this tasty team building event. We also provide a hilarious emcee to entertain and guide everyone through the experience. Awards are given for the best-tasting chowder, but also for teamwork and creativity.
All in all, it makes for an uplifting break from the day-to-day grind. So engage your inner Bostonian, and let’s get cooking.
