ROUND 1!
Welcome to "The Amazing Race"! There are five teams competing again one another to win, but only one can win! Round one will take Place in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso! Burkina Faso is rich in culture and in their food. This challenge will be a "Detour". Your team will walk to the local food market in Ouagadougou and gather the ingredients to make the three common dishes of Brochette- a skewer with meat and vegetables on it, Ragout d'lgname- a grilled chicken dish, and Fufu, a ball of grain or maze, cooked and often dipped in a soup. Once you gather the ingredients, you must go to the check in point, Espace Gondwana, a local restaurant in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, where we have arranged for you to use their kitchens to prepare the three dishes. You must prepare them by 7:00 PM when we will have locals join us for dinner. The locals will score your food, and the team with the highest ratings wins the round. The team with the lowest will be eliminated.
