SUPPER STARS Invites Event Organisers to Spice Up Their Virtual Events with New Launch
SUPPER STARS, the international community of professional chefs offering gourmet private services, has launched a brand new online team building solution to help the events industry spice up interactions with an exclusive cooking experience for remote groups.
The need to socially distance and the restrictions on travel plans has led the event industry to reinvent itself, moving from on site to online events. Like so many brands, SUPPER STARS has also found itself forced to adapt – it has embraced this challenge and put its community of talented chefs to work to launch a series of all new culinary activities for groups, delivered entirely online, in real time. This will help event organisers to shake up virtual boot camps and conferences, creating real connections between participants at a distance.
The interactive, real time experiences see designated SUPPER STARS chefs running the session, directly from their kitchen into the homes of participants around the world. Participants are invited to cook one or more recipes, live with their exclusive chefs who will also share some of their own professional tricks and tips. At the end of the session, the group can sit down (in their own homes) to enjoy the prepared dishes while socialising and networking online.
With tasks for all tastes, savoury and sweet, plus a choice of simple or restaurant-style challenges, there is an option for groups of all abilities. Participants can cook the recipe themselves at the same time as the chef, or simply take notes for later use, asking questions throughout the process.
SUPPER STARS also offers a more testing dynamic in which the chef accelerates the pace of preparing the recipe, adding a pinch of challenge to the task to get participants working under pressure and managing their time in the best way possible.
“Team building and group activities have never been more vital – yet so frustratingly out of reach,” says Tiago Ribeiro, co-founder of SUPPER STARS. “This is true for corporates working remotely, as well as for event organisers. On site bootcamps and conferences offer so much more than just speaker sessions. The challenge is how to engage participants, boost relationships and create collective memories in online events. And what better way to connect people than offering new experiences, with great enthusiasm and useful information, around gastronomy? That’s the power of food; it brings people together in an immersive online experience that feels very real.”
SUPPER STARS also suggests that participants photograph their dishes and extend the experience by sharing photos afterwards. Organisers could additionally run a best plating award, challenging the competitive spirit of each participant.
SUPPER STARS has an international and multi-lingual community of over 100 professional chefs, who have worked in some of the best restaurants in the world in over 30 countries. While it is unable to offer its chef services in client homes currently, its community of talented culinary professionals is available to support families and businesses online. The team building sessions are just one of a number of new digital initiatives on offer, which include 1-on-1 private sessions with a professional chef, parent and child cooking classes, and birthday parties where friends and family can jointly enjoy a shared experience to celebrate a special occasion.
To schedule a culinary online group session, contact SUPPER STARS for a personalised proposal. Each session typically lasts 45-60 minutes, depending on the level of interaction, the questions asked and the pace of preparation.
