21-year-old bubbling with talent

21-year-old bubbling with talent

Despite the Fourth Asean Skills Competition having ended recently, 21-year-old Chef Muhammad bin Haji Mus is still ecstatic. He won a Diploma in Cookery at the competition held in Jakarta, Indonesia between October 1 to 10.
The young chef together with his partner, an apprentice in catering at the Technical College, won themselves the title after competing against 10 other talented participants.
"We had to make an order from the Mastershop to obtain the ingredients for our recipes, and would later be rated by a judge from another Asean country," said Muhammad. "It was very challenging as many of the other participants were professionals from various Asean countries", he added. Chef Muhammad is a very skilful chef, having served delicious cuisines at the Jerudong Park Country Club for almost three years.
"I was encouraged to participate in the competition by my Head Chefs Ismail and Azhar", said the jubilant chef.
"He is an asset to the club. He is very useful in terms of preparing good quality food and we here at JPCC would like to have more workers like him in the future," commented Haji Dennis bin Haji Roslee, CEO of JPCC Sdn Bhd.
He had previously received a gold medal in cookery during the Technical College Skills Competition in Brunei Darussalam.
