Team Building Activity: The Ultimate Pasta-Making Competition
Dive into the world of fresh pasta in this hands-on team building activity. Under the guidance of Chef Deanna, you'll learn how to prepare authentic pasta from scratch and flavorful sauces to pair with it.
To begin the class, you'll learn the time-honored recipe to make homemade pasta dough using flour, eggs, olive oil and salt. Then, you'll master the technique to knead the dough and shape it into pasta noodles. As the pasta cooks, transform crushed tomatoes into a classic marinara sauce flavored with onions, garlic, basil and oregano. You'll also learn how to make a creamy Alfredo sauce with heavy cream, butter and Parmesan cheese. Finally, break into groups to test your culinary skills and improve communication and collaboration as you work together to make a unique pasta dish by mixing in ingredients like chicken, sausage and mushrooms.

Class was terrible, awful and not even close to worth the money. Lady who ran the class didn’t have enough equipment for everyone. It felt like we were taking a cooking class in a 3rd grade class room. Very little instruction and education was given. Lots of down time. And no snacks! Everyone in the class was starving. Couldn’t the instructor have brought bread or even bar snacks. Have to buy your own drinks so not sure what you get for the money. We ended up leaving early.

Overall good experience. Great atmosphere and the chef was very knowledgeable and personable. Only complaint would be equipment. Not enough of everything for all stations.
