Food Tasting
Ethic Food Sampling
Event Type: eating
Contributors: several
Planning required: food preparation, background knowledge about the food preparation and presentation
Event Summary: If your chapter has someone who enjoys cooking or has some delicious family ethnic food recipes have them prepare some traditional meals that may not be common to most Brothers. Have them host a dinner where they explain the background of the food in their culture and you expose Brothers to various ethnic foods they may not have otherwise been brave enough to try. You can expand this event to present nutritional information, cultural significance and history of various ethnic and/or cultural foods. You can also easily broaden the scope of the event and Brothers participating by having an "around the world" meal where there are several food presentations.
