A great way to learn about cultures is through food, but I chose to share ingredients….I picked a few vegetables and had everyone share how they prepare that vegetable. I had restricted invitations to get a good mix of cultural backgrounds so that we could share more info. I had also requested everyone to wear traditional clothes but only 2 of us wore costumes…Indian and Cambodian….still good.
We laughed when some said, Oh no, I don’t like this veg, no thanks! Overall, it went well, but I learn something new at each project I hold, which helps improve any upcoming projects/workshops I manage.
I made a short video and sent it to all who attended. And was very happy that our group picture was used to advertise the ‘recipe competition’ later in the year!
