A LaHave resident says competing in MasterChef Canada was a great experience. Trevor Jessome made it into the top 50 of the television show before losing out. He cooked grilled tenderloins of lamb with a potato gnocchi, a kale pesto and ribbons of zucchini and red onion. Jessome says it was a risky dish but he wanted to make an impression.
He needed two votes from the three judges to move on, but only received one. Jessome recently returned home. He is a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force and was deployed overseas just before the show started. Jessome says he will continue cooking with his wife and catering locally.
