“Action speaks louder than words, we will show you why we are called the ‘pride of Ahafo’” one of the Acherensua SHS indicated.

But representatives from Kukuo SHS maintained their silence. They were, however, confident of a victory at the end of the day.

At the end of the first round of competition, Kukuo SHS and Boakye Tromo SHTS led the contest.

The contestants then had to impress the judges with their culinary skills. They had two hours to prepare a tasty meal with leftovers.

The judges evaluated the contestants’ application of the various cooking techniques.

Failure to apply the right technique when preparing a dough, for example, meant contestants lost vital points.
