Multichoice Uganda, in partnership with Rubis Energy Uganda, has rewarded winners in its exciting cook-off competition dubbed Lockdown Chefs.
The public was tasked with watching the reality TV show, House of Chefs and thereafter recreate any one of the dishes from the show each week and share their cooking process and results on their social media pages.
With enthusiasm, Ugandans took to their kitchens to get creative and cooking and submit their entries for their followers to like and vote for them.
Commenting on the performance of the competition, Joan Semanda Kizza, the PR and Communications Manager at MultiChoice Uganda said that “Since the launch of the competition, we have rewarded eight winners out of all participants who made their entries.”
According to Rebecca Nassiwa, the Marketing Manager, RUBiS Energy, there has been higher participation and winning from gents compared to women.
“To date, participation has interestingly seen 70% male and 30% female participation while winners registered are seven gents and one lady,” she observed. “It has been interesting for us to note that Ugandan men have taken on this challenge, perhaps owing to the fact that our men have found themselves needing to fend more for themselves in the kitchen during lockdown.”
In the first week, winners walked away with assorted gift hampers from MultiChoice Uganda as well as gas cylinders of 12kgs and 6kgs from RUBiS Energy.
To participate in the competition, watch the House of Chefs show on Honey TV and thereafter recreate the dishes on the show and share your videos with friends and family across social media, and tag DStv Uganda and RUBiS Energy pages on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Participants are required to submit their entries every week on Monday while voting takes place during the week and winners announced on Thursday/Friday each week.
