Battle of the Star Chefs - Mrs Singapore & Mrs Classic Singapore 2016

When we talk about domestical role of a wife and a mother, taking pride in cooking for love ones is definitely part of it. It is also another way to refine a woman's femininity. Aren't we proclaimed as the domestic goddess right? 

Today, the next challenge will be "Battle of the Star Chefs.", where our ladies displayed their culinary prowess by creating a variety of innovative dishes, using our sponsors' products; iLite sugar replacement (half the calories!) and either the curry or laksa la mian from PrimaTaste.

This event is another of the organiser's endeavours to enrich the contestants experience with a well-thought creative concept, as well as the opportunity to hone their skill. Furthermore, our ladies also get to receive useful tips on how they can improve their skills from our cooking experts as judges today.

Walking into the competition hall is like entering a Michelin 6 stars restaurant with all the food lay out impressively, feasting the eyes. 

Check out the photos below to witness this unique culinary twist!

 We have some of our talented contestants here, tagged team with their beloved hubby.

Every contestant takes turns to talk more about their dish and present them to the judges for tasting. Winners get to walk away with the prizes on the stage!

Being an avid noobie cook myself, I was truly trilled to be present at a live cooking competition and witnessed how the contestants battle it out to be the next Star Chef of Mrs Singapore & Mrs Classic Singapore 2016.

When the focus in life has shifted to taking the role of growing the family and nurturing your marriage, it is still necessary to take time for yourself and remember the hobbies, joy and passion in your life that once excite you.

Today's Talent show is a good opportunity for our Mrs Singapore (age 25 to 45) & Mrs Classic Singapore contestants (age 46 and above) to recollect reminiscences of their interest or pastimes that they used to enjoy, or are still participating in.

Below are all the talents that our contestants are showcasing, from ethic dances to oldies singing, and even playing of instruments, these talented ladies are truly awe-inspiring!

Our panel of judges giving very constructive feedbacks on how the ladies can further improve their performance.

 Instead of 3 winners, we had 4 top winners this year! All 4 of them earned the chance to perform at the Grand Finals next month. 

 

Putting up an entertaining show on stage in front of a vast audience is no easy feat, but our talented ladies did a splendid job, and most importantly they all had an awesome time enjoying that few minutes of limelight!
