Process and timeline

From the moment you book to the moment the chef says hello.

  1. When you book

    Hold your date

    A $250 deposit reserves the date and comes off the total in full. Dates 2 weeks out book instantly; sooner than that, ask and we can often expedite.

  2. Within a day

    Your event planner gets in touch

    Every event gets a dedicated planner, at no cost. They shape it around your team — the menu, the timings, dietary needs, and the parts that make it yours.

    • Free customization of the menu and the run of show
    • Free engagement games to open or close the session
    • Extra cheers, toasts and shout-outs for birthdays, wins and farewells
    • Dietary adjustments for anyone who needs them
  3. As soon as you like

    Collect guest addresses

    We send every guest a short form to fill in themselves, so you never chase anyone for a home address. Prefer to handle it yourself? Send us the list instead.

  4. 10 days before

    Addresses in

    That is the deadline for free standard shipping anywhere in the US. International delivery is available to most countries at additional cost, and those addresses are due earlier.

  5. A few days before

    Kits arrive

    Each guest gets their own kit at their own address, with everything the workshop needs in it. Shipping is insured, so a lost, delayed or damaged kit is replaced.

  6. Event day

    Everyone joins and the chef takes it from there

    One link, no software to install. Your planner is on hand in the background if anything needs sorting mid-event.

Agenda / Run of show

A breakdown of how the 90 - 120 min runs.

  2. 0:11 – 0:29

    Round one

    The first act — everyone gets their part and the clues start landing.

  3. 0:29 – 0:56

    The investigation

    Teams work the evidence, compare notes and start ruling suspects in and out.

  4. 0:56 – 1:16

    The accusation

    Each team makes its case, and the host reveals what really happened.

  5. 1:16 – 1:30

    Debrief & group photo

    Who spotted what, who was closest, and the team photo.

As a parent, I loved that Chef Emily made Some serious game and mixology fun feel approachable enough to try again with my family. The instructions were clear, the pace kept everyone engaged, and sharing what I made afterward was a fun bonus. It gave us a fun story to share at home.
