Go.Asia announced the collaboration with The University of Hong Kong today. The 1st SciChef Cooking Challenge will be co-organized by The Faculty of Science of The University of Hong Kong, Education Bureau and Go.Asia in 2015.

This project aims to foster food science, chemistry and nutrition knowledge to junior secondary school students, and arouse their interest towards science and healthy eating habits. Participants will be joining an interactive lecture in the latest food science and nutrition knowledge given by the professors from HKU, having a chance to join a live cooking demonstration by renowned chefs and presenting their new design recipes to the jury. Finalists will have one hour of cooking time to unleash their creativity and prepare their masterpieces. They may incorporate the knowledge of food science and nutrition gained from the lectures and the feedback received from the judge panel on the Semi-Final.

All  F.1 to F.3 students of local schools (Y.7 to Y.9 students of international schools) are welcomed to join the 1st SciChef Cooking Challenge!
