Why cooking is the best onboarding activity
Unlike team workshops or networking events, cooking requires real collaboration — from the very first moment.
The fastest icebreaker there is
Ask someone to pass the salt and you've already broken the silence. Cooking requires constant collaboration — new team members start talking naturally within minutes.
Low stakes, high reward
No pressure, no performance reviews. Everyone is equally out of their comfort zone — which is the perfect leveller for teams from different backgrounds and seniority levels.
A shared story from day one
"Remember when we all tried to fold dumplings and it was a disaster?" A shared cooking story becomes team lore. New hires feel part of the group from their very first week.
