Musgrave Methodist hosts MasterChef inspired food fair

Musgrave Methodist Church is hosting a Saturday lunchtime MasterChef-inspired food fair in the church garden on Saturday, July 23 from 11:00.

Teams of competitors will be cooking up a storm with pre-selected ingredients to find the best meal in Musgrave! Competitors will be cooking al fresco (on braais, Webers, potjies or skottels) and will be preparing a selection of unusual main meals for visitors to enjoy. There will also be pudding and drink options available.

A panel of judges will choose the best meal of the day!

The family event is a fundraiser for the church’s property and projects. The particular focus of this event is to raise money to restore and de-borer the church’s magnificent arched wooden roof. The idea is also to create awareness about the activities of the church, and to enjoy unusual food, fellowship and great company.

There will be a Jumping Castle and play area for children – and hotdogs for sale.

“We are hoping our MasterChef food fair provides a fun, family-friendly, affordable alternative to a home-cooked lunch for families on the Berea and beyond – and a chance to enjoy the company of friends and neighbours,” said Musgrave Methodist’s Pam de Wet, one of the organisers of the event.
