How to Play With Your Food: Game Curious at Evergreen Brick Works 🍪

How are we playing with our food in this workshop? We will be playing a variation of one of Jenn Sandercock’s games in her Edible Games Cookbook called “Roll for Flavour”. In her version of this game, players compete with one another by rolling dice to obtain their favourite cupcake ingredients and toppings to create a yummy–or questionable–flavour combination!

Roll For Flavour on ‘The Games‘ tab of Edible Games.

Instead of baking cupcakes, we have modified Roll For Flavour into 3 rounds, or 3 courses if you will, of competing for ingredients that will go towards a non-alcoholic mixed drink, an appetizer bowl, and a dessert tray. Roll for ingredients to assemble the most delicious meal you can dream of! Sabotage other players by stealing or swapping the ingredients they want for themselves! Or try new food & drink combinations you would have never thought of before! This activity will require assembling your meals. No cooking or food prep will be happening on your end. NOTE: we suggest that you grab an actual meal before or after this event as the foods prepped during this activity are not meant to be a full meal replacement.

Food options provided are based off of what’s available during the fall season and has been planned for what works best with the format of this game. Because the Fido Kitchen is a communal activity space, we unfortunately cannot guarantee that the space is free of ingredients that may cause severe allergic reactions (e.g. nut-free, gluten-free).

Play with your Food may use a wide range of ingredients during gameplay, including nuts, soy, dairy and gluten products. If you are signing up as a participant please contact us with your dietary preferences before the event. Please email us at info@handeyesociety.com and we will accommodate as best we can.
