On the 13th June the 2nd ESF Masterchef Final took place, at King George V school.

Pupils were give the brief of Iconic Hong Kong and asked to use their creative flare to interpret this how they wanted and they would have one and half hours to make their dish.

Representing island school for the Juniors ( working in pairs) was Kaela- Mei Townson (9W) and Melodie Karbassian (9W). They decided to show the history of Hong Kong on  plate, with the British influence of fish cakes and chips, Japanese Teriyaki Salmon skewers and Crab spring rolls. these were represented don a long plate, with the dishes growing in height to represent that growth of the sky scrappers along Victoria Harbor.

jason Lim (10R) was Island school’s competitor for the Seniors and he decided to make a East/West Fusion of Chinese Spiced Rack of Lamb, with hairy melon stuffed with “lucky mushrooms,” served with hoe made Pasta with mint pesto. he certainly gave himself a challenge but he completed with time to spare.
