Our team building event with Wild Thyme was amazing!! The chefs helped us with a “Chopped” style cooking competition between teams with random ingredients (including a jackfruit for one team😮). We flew around the kitchen making all our dishes with laughter and teamwork and at the end sat down for a wonderful meal together. We had THE BEST time! Thank you, Wild Thyme ❤️

The Wild Thyme hosted a Chopped Cooking Style Event for my work team and it was amazing! They handled all of the logistics from start to finish and made the experience so fun for everyone. They were professional, fun, easy and were a big help in the kitchen too. This was one of the most memorable events that we’be done that my team is still talking about and we owe it to you- thank you for being so wonderful! We hope to be back again soon.
