KSA Masterchef competition in conjunction with HIRSCHS, SMEG and LG

Every year the KSA arranges 3 or 4 supplier product evenings where members showcase their products or services. On Valentine's Day the KSA, in conjunction with Hirsch's, Smeg and LG invited members to take part in a Masterchef challenge and pit themselves against their industry colleagues.

The Hirsch’s store was a-BUZZ with lucky draws, product dashes, wine tasting and many other activities including additional suppliers like Whirlpool and Liebherr. The teams, representing 9 countries, took on the challenge fighting to be the overall winner.

Amongst the prizes were: Hirsch’s vouchers, a bed sponsored by Rest Assured & a pressure cooker awarded to the best “dressed” team. The judges found it difficult to select the over-all winner as all teams showed such spirit as well has delicious dishes. The overall scores only differed by 1 or 2 points.

Congratulations to Sariga Designer Kitchens who took 1st place with their mouth-watering 3 course: chicken nachos, bean buritos with guacamole & salsa & and the quick thinking dessert which took the form of a pressure test - cinnamon & nut-brittle pastries.

What a HUGE success with more than 40 contestants and equally as many spectators!

Thank you to Norman Brassel, Lesley Oates and their team at Hirsch's who thought outside the box and offered to host this Masterchef competition and for allowing contestant use their products.
