Why CHAMP chose a Luxembourg culinary experience
Marjorie Guerrero, Executive Assistant to the CEO and ESG Coordinator at CHAMP, came to ChefPassport through a referral in October 2024. The brief was clear: create a meaningful team event that would bring colleagues together, celebrate their work, and offer something more memorable than another corporate dinner.
As a large organisation with formal procurement requirements, CHAMP needed a partner who could navigate vendor onboarding, contract approval by the CPO, and invoicing through a dedicated purchasing department.
What ChefPassport created: a full Luxembourg feast, cooked together
ChefPassport designed a Luxembourg Classics Feast—a full-course menu rooted in the country's culinary traditions. The team worked in small groups at individual cooking stations, guided by a team of chefs including Anne, Jo, Portia, Spenser, and Betti on bartending duties. Ingredients were sourced through Cactus and Cactus Wines, ensuring quality and authenticity.
Participants prepped, cooked, and plated each course themselves. The menu celebrated Luxembourg's rich food heritage: layered pastries, slow-cooked mains, and a show-stopping strawberry meringue dessert that teams assembled, garnished, and served to one another. The format was collaborative, not competitive—everyone contributed, everyone tasted, and everyone sat down together at the end to share what they'd made.
What the team valued most
The event succeeded because it made space for connection. Colleagues who normally work on separate projects or in different departments found themselves chopping, stirring, and problem-solving side by side. The chefs set the pace, demonstrated techniques, and kept energy high, but the real work—and the real bonding—happened at the stations.
For Marjorie, the value was also in what she didn't have to manage. ChefPassport coordinated the venue, organised ingredient delivery, briefed the chefs, handled dietary requirements, and ensured the event ran smoothly from start to finish. Even when email delivery issues meant switching to personal Gmail for a time, communication remained clear and the planning stayed on track.
Why this works for corporate teams in Luxembourg
Organising a team event for 26 people—especially within a large company with procurement protocols—requires a partner who understands both the logistics and the people side. CHAMP needed an experience that felt personal and engaging, not generic or scripted. A corporate cooking class in Luxembourg delivered that: real food, real collaboration, and a shared sense of accomplishment.
The Luxembourg Classics menu grounded the event in local culture, which mattered to a team based in the Grand Duchy. Cooking together created natural conversation, laughter, and moments of pride when a dish came together. And sitting down to eat what they'd made turned colleagues into dinner guests—relaxed, present, and genuinely enjoying each other's company.
