Chef Wanitha Tanasingam Set to Wok Your Team with VictorsFood

Announcement posted by VictorsFood 03 Mar 2015

Chef Wanitha Tanasingam and VictorsFood launch tasty new team building options

VictorsFood is delighted to welcome an old friend into its team. Chef Wanitha Tanasingam, affectionately dubbed ‘The Wan’, is a living, breathing Asian cuisine icon. Having worked together in many ventures over the years, ‘The Wan’ and VictorsFood Executive Chef Victor Pisapia founded the first cooking team building company in Australia in 2002 and then headed in different directions. Together again, they have developed two new hands-on cooking team building options.

Wok into Action is an ‘Asian Action Adventure’. This 3.5 hour event will take your team on a journey through the flavours of Asia. Wanitha will build tailored team building metaphors through ingredients, recipes and techniques. Bring ancient philosophy into everyday action using the alchemy of the kitchen to transform your team into gold.

Wok On! is a one hour event where teams can participate or simply watch The Wan and the VictorsFood team cook up a range of Asian specialities. This high-energy event is a great way to fire up a product launch, conference icebreaker or motivational presentation, not to mention an enticing way to serve canaps. This fiery interactive cooking experience will delight and entertain your guests.

Tanasingam says, “Victor [Pisapia] and I have a very similar approach to cooking, eating and living. We both believe that you need to respect your ingredients, respect the earth and above all, enjoy your life. Cooking together is a really easy way to enhance a team’s sense of cohesion as well as their collective joyfulness, a factor that should not be underestimated. I am very excited to be sharing my knowledge and passion for Asian cuisine with new audiences by partnering with VictorsFood.”
