Are you Malaysia’s next food celebrity?

Calling all young foodies, chefs, baristas, bakers, bloggers, food truckers, etc. – here’s your chance to win RM10,000!

THERE’S a new wave of food entrepreneurs here in Malaysia – creative and enterprising young people who are breaking the F& B mould with their brilliant ideas.

We’ve seen home bakers selling their goods on Facebook, artisanal ice- cream makers coming up with quirky local flavours, food truckers who build a following ( literally) on social media, and so much more.

And now, the R. AGE Food Fight is here to give them a huge boost, by giving them the chance to become Malaysia’s next food celebrity!

The winner of the competition will get a food column in The Star, his/ her own online video series pro- duced by R. AGE, and – wait for it – RM10,000 in cold hard cash. There are a few other product prizes, but you get the picture.

The five finalists will get a pretty sweet deal too. They’ll get masterclasses with some of the best in the business – Chef Wan, Le Cordon Bleu master chef Rodolphe Onno, Chef Darren Chin of the very swanky Restaurant DC, top food blogger KY Speaks and performing artiste/ up- and- coming restaurateur Chef Liang.

With their powers combined, you’ll be getting a huge foot into the door of the industry, whether you’re looking to build your food business, or be the host of your own food show.

To join, all you’ve gotta do is record a video of yourself preparing a dish/ beverage using our featured ingredient – palm oil – and mention at least one of its benefits. Then, write a blogpost to complement your video, and send them to us at alltherage@ thestar. com. my.

We’ll be featuring all five finalists’ stories right here in R. AGE, so stay tuned ;-)
