Brent and Andrew may have left the MKRSA competition in their semi-final but it seems the duo are the official people’s choice season 1 winners.
South Africa’s Good Things Guy Brent Lindeque and one of MKRSA’s most talented contestants Andrew Ross have left the show on a high note.
Brent & Andrew were the first and only team to score a 10 out of 10… twice! The team scored a perfect 10 for their Cheesecake in the instant restaurant round and their Chocolate Fondant in the semi finals. They also went on to cook up a storm serving incredible dishes winning awards along the way throughout the first season of the show.
Since leaving the competition last night, social media has exploded with love for Brent & Andrew. The top social media trend was for team #BrenDrew who have been crowned as the season 1 “people’s choice” winners.
#MKRSA #brendrew bad luck guys. You will be OUR winners of Season 1. Thank you for keeping it real and being nice from day 1!
