Agenda / Run of show

A breakdown of how the 2 hours runs.

  1. 0:00 – 0:10

    Arrival & welcome

    Your chef sets up while the team arrives — drinks and something to nibble.

  2. 0:10 – 0:24

    Introductions & the plan

    Meet your chef, hear the menu and split into stations.

  3. 0:24 – 1:12

    Hands-on cooking

    Each station takes a part of the menu, with the chef moving between them.

  4. 1:12 – 1:30

    Team activity

    A short competition or tasting challenge between stations.

  5. 1:30 – 1:48

    Sit down and eat

    Everything comes together and the team eats what it made.

  6. 1:48 – 2:00

    Coffee, photo & clean-up

    Your chef clears everything away. You do not.

As a cultural learner, I enjoyed how the Southern Seafood workshop invited us to explore its theme with curiosity rather than treating it as just another activity. I enjoyed learning how the theme connected to shared traditions. The experience encouraged me to keep exploring the subject.
