The Parties that Cook event was, hands down, the best team-building exercise that I've participated in. Pulling together with my co-workers in a fun and fast- paced environment -- and then kicking back to enjoy the fruits of our labor -- was a great way to bond and celebrate a year's worth of hard work. Throughout the process, Bibby and her team of professional chefs provided expert tips and coaching, cleaned up, and in general made us feel like we really were on our own Iron Chef show. All in all, a great experience that I would rmend to any team!
