Team Subisco out of Suriname evolved the winner of Last Sunday’s
clash of “the Past Champions,” Duck Curry Competition sponsored by King’s Jewelry World.
The event which has become a family tradition for Guyanese saw scores of people in attendance.
Team Suriname was announced the winner late last Sunday from among a string of local and international participating groups from Guyana, and Trinidad and Tobago.
Fourteen Guyanese and three Trinidadian teams took part in the annual cook off competition.
Some of the local participating groups include Ramlakan and Sons Rice Mills, Travel span Inc, Jamal’s Ultimate Curry Crew and Bombay Massala. Trinidadian teams included Trini Limas and T&T Jz Steak House.
Team Subisco walked away with the grand prize of $1.5 million. G&P Jaigobin and Son Supermarket came in second place, while Jaikarran Duck Curry Crew placed third, Jamal’s Ultimate Curry Crew, fourth and Mike’s Haslington Crew, fifth.
Apart from those prizes, teams were also awarded for the best presentation and the best dressed/largest group. Team Suriname captured the best presentation prize and G&P Jaigobin and Son Supermarket secured the best dressed/largest group prizes.
The competition commenced at 14:00h and the competitors were given two hours to prepare their curries. The contestants were judged based on presentation, aroma, texture and taste of the food by a panel of ten judges.
The Chief sponsor of the event and proprietor King’s jewelry world, Looknauth Persaud, said that the event has become a family tradition among Guyanese. The event was also sponsored by eight other entities.
Scores of people came out in their numbers to support the 13th annual duck curry competition.
Those in attendance of the cooking competition at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence, East Bank Demerara last Sunday were greeted by the melodies of a live band and Tassa drummers.
