Cookarama 2014

Hola!

What's Cookarama you ask? Cookarama's an outpost tradition that we celebrate every year where all the young aspiring chefs that is our rangers cook up a storm to showcase their culinary expertise (or some culinary tragedies). In this year's edition, the commanders decided to pick the rangers' creativity in cooking.... MUSHROOMS! And as all you rangers should remember, Cookarama was just five days ago! Just in case some of you start to forget what you guys came up with, (cause our brains are getting tinnier relying on smartphones all the time) here are pictures of the day to evoke those almost faded memories...

But before we get to the food! Beginning last year, Selangor #6 decided to instill a BIT more fun into this annual cook out of ours, and yes as you can see below, it's the infamous BLIND TASTE TEST! Fully equipped with blind folds and headphones so you can't cheat *sly and evil laugh*

What happens is that every patrol from the Adventure and Expedition Rangers will send one of their members to blind taste some insects and reptiles that we feed them blindfolded and whoever gets the most correct answers get to have a first hand choice in the protein that they will be cooking together with their mushrooms! So much fun isn't it? :P

Nah.. just kidding.. we don't serve insects and reptiles. This was what we really served them last Sunday. From apples to carrots to french beans to almonds. Healthy living people!

Ranger Shannon vs Ranger Adam. It is on!

Ranger Daniel vs Ranger Calvin

Ranger Krystal vs Ranger Jonathan

Having gone through the blind test taste and getting their proteins, the cook off officially commenced!

After putting much effort in plating and presenting all their dishes in the best way possible, it's time... for the judges... to taste the fooooddddd! (We pray no one got food poisoning :P)
