Summer is a great time for catching up with friends and family and having a picnic in the park.
The team at Insight spend their time raising money for a raft of charity organisations and just before Christmas they decided to take time out for a weekday team lunch with a twist.
I wanted to improve on the sausage-in-a-bun or cold-chook approach to the average and decided to hit the team with a Mexican inspired feast.
Taking full advantage of the beautifully maintained free barbecue (thank you City of Sydney), I set up operations under a couple of giant Port Jackson figs in Prince Alfred Park MAP and got cooking.
The team enjoyed home made salsa and oven roasted tortilla chips as they sipped on sparkling margaritas and Mexican beers while the barbecue heat did it’s thing.Chipotle chilli marinated prawns, chicken skewers with lime and coriander and whole sirloin steaks rubbed with chilli and garlic salt were charred as I whipped up a giant platter of salad.
It was a challenge to set up a party in the park, but I’m definitely looking forward to the next outing with the Insight team.

Mexican food is great for these types of gatherings. Very informal, fun and, of course, tasty.
