Relaxing and Connecting Through Cooking

Are you looking for a fun event for your team to bond outside of the workplace? A group cooking event with me is a fantastic way to help your team connect while creating amazing food together.

Food naturally brings people together, so it is the perfect starting point for your team building event. Your team will be able to connect with one another in a fun environment outside of the workplace and have a tangible product (an amazing plant-based meal) at the end of our time together.

With Chef Mark, the team building begins before the event even starts. Each participant will receive a shopping list along with a video of Chef Mark buying ingredients at the store, complete with product recommendations and tips on what to look for. The team will be invited to join a private chat where they can ask questions and share local shopping tips.

Participants will receive a list of the cooking equipment they will need, plus Chef Mark's signature flowchart-style recipes (basically IKEA instructions of cooking). On the day of the event, they will set out their ingredients, equipment, and recipes and join the live class on Zoom. We will cook together in real time, and each participant will have an incredible meal ready to eat at the end of the class.

This format is ideal for remote teams, since each participant can join from anywhere in the world! We can choose a time that works across time zones for all participants.

The link below is a recording of an event I did for Kaiser. You can get a feel for what to expect if your team works with me.

"My team event was a success thanks to Mark's enthusiasm, clear communication, dedication, and passion! It was so easy to coordinate the event with Mark and he took care of all our needs. My team felt connected and had a really fun break from the daily grind, while learning something new. I've come back to him a few times and look forward to working together again soon."

"We have worked with Mark on several virtual events for our employees and their families. Mark conveys concepts of how eating plant-based can be beneficial to one's health; as well as tools, tips and techniques for cooking. Mark is very creative, easy to work with and goes the extra mile to ensure that everyone has a wonderful experience. We have received so much positive feedback from each class offering that we have done with Mark."
- Laura Fraser, Employee Wellness Director, Kaiser
