Goals

  • Strengthen team spirit through a dynamic, competitive, and fun challenge.

Our approach to the event

We adopted an experiential storytelling approach, transforming the classic treasure hunt into a themed adventure. We combined the adrenaline rush of competition with the discovery of local street food and practical challenges, ensuring that each task was an effective team-building exercise.

Description

We organized a customized gastronomic treasure hunt themed “Pechino Express” in the heart of Catania. The activity involved participants, divided into teams, in a dynamic journey through the historic center and local markets. Some of the challenges included:

  • Skill and Speed Challenge (Cooking): A competition to make the most Sicilian cannoli in the shortest time possible, testing coordination and precision.
  • Sensory Challenge (Street Food): A challenge to taste and identify at least five ingredients hidden in the typical dish of Sarde a Beccafico.
  • Negotiation Challenge (Market): Tasks requiring teams to purchase ingredients at the city market using cunning and communication skills.

The format guaranteed a highly engaging, fun experience and a true immersion in Sicilian culture.

Takeaways

  • Immediate strengthening of team cohesion and dynamics, put to the test by challenges of speed, precision, and negotiation
  • Acquisition of real sensory and practical skills, ranging from assembling cannoli to identifying typical ingredients
  • A fun, hands-on experience that transforms a simple visit into the beating heart of Sicilian culture (markets and street food)
