San Diego based company, Lajollacooks4u, is in the national spotlight for specialized cooking classes and exceptional team building events. Renowned companies from all over the world, like Hewlett-Packard, Illumina, Price Waterhouse, and Domino Sugar, have all sought out and traveled to Lajollacooks4u to participate in an experience unlike any other.

Each event begins with a palette-stimulating olive oil and salt tasting competition in the garden that adjoins Lajollacooks4u’s indoor and outdoor kitchen. The initial exercise is an enticing warm-up that allows team members to break the ice while enjoying a glass of wine and a breathtaking panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean.

As the group moves towards the kitchen, members are divided into teams where they collaborate in creating several different menu items. Lajollacooks4u’s founder and culinary expert, Chef Jodi Abel, guides and educates each team on professional culinary techniques, skills, and farm-to-table cuisine. Participating teams are encouraged to compete against each other to produce the top dishes judged by taste, presentation, and teamwork. Team members even vote on the colleague most deserving of “Top Chef” – a title bestowed upon the most involved, creative, and most engaging participant.

When the competition portion draws to a close and the winners are crowned, company members reconvene at the dining table to enjoy the fabulous 4-course meal they prepared, complete with a wine pairing for each gourmet dish. Be it in the comfort of Chef Jodi’s elegant dining room or on her outdoor Tuscan-inspired terrace, guests laugh and mingle over their experiences and the delicious creations of their fellow team members. Guests leave Lajollacooks4u with a satisfied palette and a newfound love for cooking. They also appreciate their time was well spent establishing a deeper unity with colleagues.
