Team Building in Bologna

The team building experiences at La Soffritta di Bologna are corporate activities where teams cook and share a full meal together, guided by our professional chefs.

They are designed for companies looking for an alternative to the traditional corporate dinner, offering a more engaging experience that strengthens relationships and teamwork among colleagues.

The experience is suitable for teams of any size and industry, including mixed groups and participants with no cooking experience.

No cooking skills are required. The experiences are designed for mixed corporate groups, and our chefs guide every participant step by step throughout the entire activity.

Food allergies and intolerances are common in corporate groups. Simply let us know when requesting a quote, and we will prepare everything in advance to ensure a suitable experience for everyone.

The Bologna venue can host up to 16 participants in a 70 sqm open space, fully equipped for cooking and dining together.

If your group is larger or you have specific needs, we can explore alternative or tailored solutions together.

For weekends and high-demand periods, we recommend booking at least 2 to 3 weeks in advance. For customised events, a bit more time helps us organise everything properly.

Team building cooking experiences usually last between 2 and 3 hours, regardless of the chosen format.

The structure is simple and well organised: welcome and introduction, hands-on cooking session in teams guided by our chefs, and a final moment where everyone shares the dishes prepared together.

Each phase has clear timing, making it easy to plan the rest of your corporate event.

Team Cooking focuses on collaboration. Participants work together to prepare a traditional Bolognese menu and then enjoy it together. It is ideal for building connections in a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere.

Team Challenge adds a competitive element. Teams compete in the kitchen through creativity, technique and teamwork, making the experience more dynamic and energetic.

The best choice depends on your event goals. If you are unsure, tell us more about your group and we will help you choose the right format.

All ingredients, equipment, space setup and full chef guidance are included throughout the experience.

We handle all the organisation, so you only need to bring your team.
