Avital made me look like a rockstar in front of the team. We had a wonderful time, and it was the perfect end to our time together in NYC. I can’t thank them enough.

In between courses, your Avital Guide leads your team through one of two original games. Both designed in-house for foodie fun and genuine connection.
Tonight’s Special is a creative card game where players think like chefs, combining trendy ingredients to build mouthwatering menus. Collaborative, competitive, and delicious.
Embrace Quirky is our all-time favorite: a get-to-know-you game that challenges your team to uncover each other’s most unexpected histories. Someone here once drank rum with real pirates. Who is it?
Note: Adding the team building upgrade does not reduce or impact the number of restaurants you’ll visit nor the number of dishes you’ll enjoy. However, adding the team building upgrade does cut in on your “mingling” time during the tour – the in-between moments where you might otherwise enjoy organic conversation time will instead be spent playing these fun and engaging games!
No surprise fees. Our prices include applicable taxes. Private events have a per-person service and gratuity charge, which you’ll see in our proposal.
Depends on your group! The NYC Interactive Meal is a crowd-pleaser if you want a full meal in one location. If you’re looking for more of a happy hour, the NYC Interactive Mingling Hour is perfect. If mixing and mingling is the priority, a food tour is hard to beat. Not sure? Email groups@avitalexperiences.com and we’ll help you figure it out.
