Nigerian chef and 2023 cook-a-thon contender, Adeparusi Damilola, popularly known as Chef Dammy, has taken a significant step in her culinary journey by enrolling in a professional culinary school.
It would be recalled that the 25-year-old conducted a 120-hour cook-a-thon in 2023, which had gone viral.
Although the attempt went unrecognised by the recording body, Chef Dammy had garnered the attention and admiration of Nigerians.
Popular food critic Opeyemi Famakin, recently revealed that the chef had joined a culinary school to improve her cooking skills.
A video he shared captured Chef Dammy in her culinary school garb while they posed together for a video selfie.
