Lalu Surdiham, a chef working in Lagos has emerged as the winner of the Knorr Taste Quest cooking competition. It was a grand finale filled with tension that could have been cut with a knife, as the trio of Ifeyinwa Mogekwu, Lalu Surdiham and Patricia Allison got ready to battle to become Nigeria's best.

minutes using Kpopo garri, Water leaf, Ikolo (worms) and Offili. It continued
with the main course, where the contestants had to create a sea food
delicacy using; Cat fish, Electric fish, Stock fish, Coco yam and Cassava. The
final task was to whip up a dessert, using; Guava, Dates, Agbalumo, Sugarcane,
Zobo leaves and Garri.
After the
judges’ deliberation, Manny, the show’s presenter announced Saratu as the 3rd
place winner, Patricia in 2nd place, and Lalu the winner of the competition.

The
third place winner went home with Five Hundred Thousand naira cash, and kitchen
