Culinary Challenge - Hyatt
Hyatt hosted one of its kind cookoff challenge amongst individuals from corporate industries. Each participant was paired with a child from partner NGOs to show off their talent and interests in the culinary field. Hyatt hosted the event - ‘Hyatt Culinary Challenge - people cooking for people’ for the fifth consecutive year. >
The challenge took place at various Hyatt hotel properties across the country.
I got an opportunity to witness amazing cooking battle amongst India’s corporate veterans in Pune. It was exciting to see the knives and spoons in the hands of techies whose fingers run on tablets & laptops. At the same time, it was motivating to see the passion and enthusiasm of the participants, who left the comforts of their cabin and wore aprons to present their amazing dishes.
This event not only showcased the culinary skills of the corporate individuals but also the team building skills in each team. The interaction and communication between child and participant proved that battle is best won by working together as a team.
