MICASA’S JSOMETHING COOKS FOR WINNING STUDENTS


Two lucky students from TUT (The University of Technology) and UJ (University of Johannesburg), along with their friends, recently received a once in a lifetime opportunity to enjoy unparalleled cuisine with J’Something, award-winning lead singer of the music group Micasa.


The competition required students across Gauteng to ‘Join the Food Revolution’ by submitting their best recipes to Philips in order to have the singer cook dinner for them. The students with the best recipes also received a full kitchen appliance make-over for their res, adding home inspiration from Philips.


Preparing Salmon Fish Cakes accompanied with a unique twist on Aioli in the Philips Avance Airfryer and blender, J’Something demonstrated to the students just how easy it is to prepare a gourmet meal with all the added health benefits and in record time. The Recipe for the salmon fish cakes

The demonstration was followed by a dinner hosted by the singer at the Munro Boutique Hotel in Houghton, a rare and spectacular venue overlooking the world’s largest urban forest. The conversations were endless as students looked to J’Something for advice on career aspirations enthralled by stories about his road to success and passion for food.


Winners Puseletso Mokoena from UJ’s Auckland Park Campus and Mandlenkosi Kwababa from TUT’s Main Campus in Pretoria West both found a new interest in food and Philips’ innovative products.

“Tonight was unlike anything I have ever experienced before. J’Something was able to show me that cooking can be simple and still taste good if you choose to work with the right ingredients and products,” said Puseletso.

“It’s not always about being fancy and complicated, simple yet smart dishes are possible, even on a student budget,” added Mandlankosi.

Though the talented performer is not a trained Chef, he is passionate about food with a family background in the restaurant industry. His keen sense for Portuguese and African culture has fueled his cooking flair and inspired his interest in culinary art.

“I have always had a love for good food and never dreamed that I would be teaching others about some of my favourite meals and recipes. I didn’t learn how to cook and am certainly not a chef, but I am passionate about food and now I can share healthy, tasty meals that look good with others too,” said J’Something.


“The evening was a great success. Wining and dining with J’Something and some of his biggest fans from UJ and TUT made the night all that more enjoyable. We are all about creating more memories and we are sure our products, J’Something and his culinary skills have done just that for these students and their res,” concluded Lucy Jones, Marketing Head for Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Africa.
