Guess what? I frickin’ won that trip to Japan.
Obviously, I wouldn’t have won without help from good people like you. So, if you voted for me or even took a moment to consider it and wish me well, thank you.
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever actually won any sort of popularity contest before. Double thanks for that.
A bonus of this mega win was finding out that I’ll be able to bring a guest with me. Here we go, Kemey! We’re going to have a blast with an epic and delicious itinerary that’ll take us to Tokyo, Mount Fuji and Kyoto.
Once back in the UK, I’ll meet up again with Ainsley and crew to discuss my ideas for a new flavour for his Cup Soup range inspired by my trip.
Big up to the four others peeps who were in the comp. By all means, they deserved to win as much as me, and their blogs are definitely worth a look.

The fine folks at Ainsley Harriott Foods and Fleishman Hilliard (they do the PR for Ainsley) are all really cool as well and have been incredibly helpful, supportive and very much on top of everything. I’m impressed … and already feel pampered. Thanks!
Oh and by the way, here’s the link to my Shiitake Steak Handrolls with Wasabi Mayo recipe that I cooked alongside Ainsley for this competition.
And don’t forget! If you voted in the #SoupSearch Challenge and are a UK resident you eligible for a chance to win a free trip to Marrakech. The winner of that comp will be announced tomorrow (Friday 28 September 2012).
