The atmosphere at the free-entry event, organized by My Food Network and Tusker Light, was nutriment aromatic as folks immersed in a contest of who cooks and serves better and best.

 

The food festival attracted a crowd of soul food enthusiasts, who geared to show off their cooking skills. By midday, the venue was abuzz with activity. They created "food gangs" of 10 people each, making seven cooking groups. The mission was, create a food delicacy that would be judged by the audience

 

 

 

Each party was given six kilos of goat and chicken, cooking ingredients and drinks for the day's cookout adventure. Stokes lit. Sizzling soon took over the ambiance. Cooks on each stall got completely absorbed into preparing a scrumptious meal.

The guests were taken on a mouth-watering ride. The picnic-themed event would later turn out to be a delightful afternoon of munching on tasty ‘meaty delicacies.'

 

 

Folks tested as they gave their views on the different cuisines. My Food Network's Mark Kaheru, one of the audience's most look-out chefs, called this ‘a delicious experience."

 

 

Revelers were later treated to a silent disco evening.
