Team Building Activity: Handmade Pasta Dish Face-Off
In this Italian-themed team building activity, your group will face off in an exciting (and delicious) pasta-making challenge. Learn an expert's techniques for creating perfect pasta dough and flavorful sauces before the competition settles in.
Your team will split into groups and you'll see as the team's natural leaders take charge, innovators get creative and team players bring everything together. Using their new culinary knowledge and a variety of mix-in ingredients, teams create their own pasta shapes and sauce to compete to see who can make the best dish in the room. Dishes will be judged on creativity, taste and appearance.
This team building activity brings out excitement, camaraderie and some relaxing downtime in the office. You'll all also get to eat plenty of fresh pasta!

Chef Kelly was awesome! She made us feel welcome in her home which was very clean and organized, and made sure she pointed out food safety and hand cleanliness. We enjoyed her wealth of knowledge and would love to hire her for a private event in the future!
