Congratulations to Hitesh who drew confidence from his 2nd place in Island School Senior Masterchef  competition last year and entered a local cooking compition with a friend from another school. The completion was part of a talent show organised to promote the fight against crime in Hong Kong and they entered the non-ethnic Chienese category of the competition.

Hitesh says “My friend and I were invited by the district councilor of Yau Tsim Mong district, to join this cooking competition which was organized by the Mong Kok police station with a friend of mine (Dhiresh Buxani). With the theme of crime, we named our dishes accordingly. We first made paneer tikka skewers as our appetizer. Flowing on we made farfalle pasta in tomato sauce to show the color of blood and to finish it off we made a light and refreshing watermelon mojito to balance the strong flavors and the heat from the entree and appetizer. Our main area of focus was presentation and taste. We were fortunate enough to win with the position of champion”

I am sure we have a future star chef in the making here.
