Cooking Parties
- Global Dining Series
You pick the date and let us help you arrange a private cooking party or group class. Cooking parties can incorporate a specific cooking trend or theme, and customized to suit your palate! Chef Donna can stew on your ideas and create a menu for you, or here are few seasonal themes to get your ideas simmering! A minimum of 6 guests required. Price per person varies based on theme.
Chopped Challenge
A "chopped-style" challenge is a great team building experience. Your guests are broken down into teams and given recipe inspiration and a time deadline. Each team's creation is judged by our staff panel. Incorporate a regional cooking influence or signature ingredient if you like, or Chef Donna will help you to design the format that meets your objectives.

Dear Kelli, Your team, the set-up, and the food quality was outstanding! The Chopped Challenge between the appetizers and the main meal was everything I hoped for and more. It was fun, it sparked creative thinking, and it enabled team bonding. The overall evening far exceeded my expectations. I will be recommending Catering Works to everyone!
