Who says developers only know their way around code?
This week, we swapped our keyboards for chopping boards and headed to the
Mediterranean Culinary Academy for an evening of team bonding, culinary school style. Walking into the kitchen felt a bit like stepping into a live cooking show. A large professional kitchen and seven fully prepped stations. Each one was neatly laid out with fresh ingredients and shiny utensils just waiting to be used. Think MasterChef: Tech Edition.
