Cooking event for the managers of OE 446 EBOe, Remote Sales & Service department

"Doing a lot with little effort". Oliver Lando's statement about the Social Day organised by Erste Bank's cookery group (Remote Sales & Service) at Fonds Soziales Wien Obdach (FSW Obdach) hits the mark. Just like the statement by his colleague Georg Schneider: "vüü Fleisch". The department conjured up delicious roasts from a total of 25kg of minced meat. The lovingly prepared menu was rounded off with parade soup to warm up, mashed potatoes and cucumber salad as side dishes and pudding and cake as a sweet finish.

"It ran like clockwork, everyone knew what to do and we chatted while we worked, the atmosphere was great! I talked a lot about our everyday life in the warming centre. The morning flew by and by 12.30 pm we had served 120 portions to the visitors of the warming centre," reports the team leader of the facility, Sabine Danzinger, enthusiastically. The delicious aroma pushed the warming centre to its capacity limits and did far more for the guests of FSW Obdach than fill their bellies at lunchtime.

To keep their strength up, the members of the cookery group repeatedly fortified themselves with their common elixir: cola (zero, light, normal and even with bull), which was presented to us as a team drink with much laughter and a wink. But it wasn't just the joy of working together and interest in the work of the Wärmestube team that was palpable on the day, but also the desire to support the organisation in the long term. As a result, the hard-working chefs from Erste Bank are now helping the Sautergasse shelter to cook more practically, efficiently and with better equipment. Thank you for your thoughtful gifts in the form of two large knives, an apple masher, a garlic press, a pasta ladle, three large chopping boards and a hand blender! 😊

Because everyone present enjoyed the day together so much, two follow-up dates were arranged in spring next year to keep the Obdach Sautergasse alive before it closes its doors at the end of April (only for the summer). All in all, the day together was, as we at FSW Obdach agree with Koch-Banker Robert Wolmerstofer: "Simply Leiwand!
