Corporate Team Building at Orlando Kart Center

Corporate team building can be beneficial to a wide range of companies, small, medium or large. In small scale companies, workers often have to perform more than one task; therefore the training and building of teams attains more importance. In large scale companies, individuals cannot achieve the best results, unless they are incorporated in a good team and work environment. Corporate team building minimizes the expenses and time consumption of recruiting and training new staff.

All corporate team building events are great entertainment providers, just as vacations are.  These events provide realistic experiences that empower members to contribute to common goals. Corporate team building events also provide a great opportunity for team members to get to know each other and establish strong working relationships.

Summer Seafood and Wine

Summer is here!! 

The season of fantastic wine and seafood.

While there are no set rules for pairing wines and food,  it helps to keep the texture of the dish in mind while pairing it with a wine.

Here are a few dishes from the sea and a few wines that you may want to pair with them.

Shrimp:
Chardonnay or Chenin Blanc
(if you prefer breaded or tempura shrimp, go with a Sparkling Brut or a nice  Micro Brew)

Crab:
Sparkling Brut or dry Riesling

Tuna:
whites and reds will pair nicely
Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, or Merlot

Sushi:
Dry Reisling or Sparkling Brut

Salmon or Swordfish:
Because of its weightier texture, you can go with either white or red.
Pinot Noir is a perfect match!

Raw Oysters:
Sauvignon Blanc, Sparkling Brut, Chardonnay, or dry Chenin Blanc

You’ll find that a well paired wine and food can make all the difference! The wine enhancing the flavor of the food and the food intensifying the qualities of the wine.  The best part is it doesn’t have to be expensive- just pair simple, great tasting wine with great tasting food!

Family Style Wedding Dinners

The latest trend in weddings and dinner parties are Family style entrees. It incorporates a more casual tone rather than dinners that come plated to each guest. The idea of passing around serving dishes and helping one’s self  is meant to set the mood of family dinners. I think it’s a fantastic idea and I have some pointers on how you can make your family style wedding dinner a hit!

It is important to choose menu items that are hardy and will keep their form. Flaky fish fillets are too difficult to serve from a platter. The fish will break apart, leaving a mess for the next guest. Another item I would not suggest is soup.

 

Foods that are great for Family Style Dinners:

* Italian food:  Eggplant Parmagiana, Chicken Picatta, Spaghetti with Meatballs, and Lasagna.

* Indian food:  Curry Chicken, Chicken Masala and traditional side dishes with Nan Bread.

* Chicken Dishes, Beef/Steak, Pork dishes.

*Fish/Seafood:  Shrimp Scampi, Paella, Salmon Wellingtons, Lobster Thermadore.

Cupcakes make a great family style alternative to cakes. Cupcakes are the newest trend in Wedding desserts and can be enjoyed by everyone!
