Corporate Parties and Team-Building

Enhance professional connections through a delicious team-building experience, wine country style.

Relish offers private cooking parties, dinners, and team-building events that are sure to bring your group together in a fun and delicious way.

We offer a variety of events from simple appetizer and wine pairings to more elaborate hands-on cooking experiences. All Relish events combine culinary education, fabulous cuisine, and world class wine in a way that is sure to be memorable. We can host your group at one of our unique and scenic wine country locations or a place of your choosing. Our events are great for cooks of all experience levels.

Corporate events include

• Hands-on Cooking Experiences where cooking becomes a forum for collaboration and communication. Your group is split into teams who work together to create a dish and share pride in the delicious results. We offer many variations that meet various corporate objectives:
  • Enhance communication and cooperation with a Mystery Basket Challenge where teams each create dish following a general method with room for customization. Teams are judged on taste, plating and presentation.
  • Foster creativity and increase wine knowledge with a Wine Pairing Challenge where each team creates an appetizer that pairs with a specific wine varietal.
  • Fire up your team with a flaming Gourmet Pizza Competition making individual wood-oven pizzas.

• A Cooking Demonstration that adds a fun twist to a corporate lunch or dinner. Your guests not only enjoy a seasonal, gourmet wine country meal, they see how some or all of the dishes are created and receive the recipes to try at home. Combine this with a beautiful wine country location such as a vineyard or wine cave for an extraordinarily memorable dining experience.

• Wine Education to complement a visit to the wine country. Relish works with a number of engaging and talented wine educators to offer a wide variety of wine events. Each event is sure to be educational and fun for wine beginners to experienced wine connoisseurs:
  • Fundamentals of Food and Wine Pairing
  • Introduction to Sonoma County Wines
  • How to Taste Wine - deductive (blind) wine tasting
  • And more

• Custom events can be created based on the specific requirements of your group. We are happy to accommodate virtually any special event request. Past custom events include
  • Paella Party at the Beach
  • Holiday Appetizer Party and Wine Pairing
  • Farm Tour followed by a Winery Tour, Tasting and Lunch
  • Cooking in the Vineyards
  • And others
