Two chefs
from Visayas are now qualified for the nationals of the Solane Kitchen Hero
Chefs’ Edition, a nationwide cooking competition which aims to recognize a new
generation of local talented chefs, after they won their respective regional
competitions.
Chef Mario Sembalante from Cebu City bested nine other
contestants in the seventh regional leg of the said culinary competition with
his winning dish, Cebu Surf and Turf — malunggay crusted Visayan deep-sea cod
fish with a millet risotto crust and local ingredients such as Mango Wine from
Argao and homemade fish chicharon with Cebu chorizo foam. On the other hand,
Chef Jimmy Boy Basa was hailed as the winner of the Eastern Visayas leg thanks
to his pickled turnips and beef strips with authentic coconut wine/Bahalina
tuba.
Both of them will compete with other regional winners in the national
competition round with P100,000 cash and a culinary trip to Japan at stake.
