Food always brings people together, so spend an evening with co-workers outside the office and enjoy an evening of cooking customized for a team building event. With the assistance of our chefs, guests will work together to prepare a delicious, gourmet meal which could be duplicated at their own kitchen or party.
The Chef will divide the menu up into teams; each team will be responsible for creating their own segment of the meal with recipes from CHEF JOHN BOGAN RECIPES FROM THE SEASONS OF MY LIFE cook book. The Chef and his staff will float between participants to assist, offer tips and suggestions, and address questions or concerns to make sure that every dish is a success!
Once the meal preparation is completed, our guests will have the opportunity to sit down and enjoy the fine dining portion of the event.

Christmas Candlelight Dinner
After a day of shopping, enjoy a beautiful Christmas Candlelight Dinner at the Lake Geneva School of Cooking.
Allow us to take you on a culinary field trip as we present a dinner menu highlighting classic Holiday Dishes and
match each with excellent wine tasting.
Begin the Christmas Candlelight Dinner with a Sparkling Wine Reception with Holiday Popovers, as Chef introduces himself and goes over the Holiday Themed menu. The Lake Geneva School of Cooking team will demonstrate some basic cuts and important safety techniques before getting broken up into teams.
Then let the "Hands-On" cooking begin as you slice, dice, chop, laugh, and dance to traditional favorites and new Holiday music; while each team creates a delicious dish from the four-course menu under the guidance of
Chef and the Team.
After all the cooking is completed, everyone will resign to the Dining Room, and enjoy a candle lit dining experience you helped create.
