About this FieldTrip
Food symmetry and balance are incredibly important, not just for plate presentation, but for the ‘gram too! So, how do chef’s plate food? In this Discover Series of FieldTrips, we’re proud to partner with BiteUnite for February’s theme: SYMMETRY. BiteUnite will share some fun facts and intro tips about food plating, as well as styling symmetrically and asymmetrically.
Come sample some of the members’ culinary pastry perfections, and learn how food can be designed to promote conversation just by the way it’s prepared, styled, and plated. Fresh baked pastries provided by the in-house chefs.
*Feel free to bring your camera for this one!

How to make the most of FieldTrips
The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Show up fully
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Stay curious
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Celebrate your host
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
Support each other
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
Not vibing?
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
