Lucille Fuggle from JBFS said even though the cook-off is a great way for corporates and local businesses to network and team-build, anyone is invited to try and take on the other teams.
“We’re also inviting people to come in the evening to check out the stalls and taste the efforts all the teams. There will be tons of other things for families to do such as listen to live music or take part in a tug-of-war,” she added.
