Hello Hello beautiful foodies of the Steemit World!

I am here today to announce the closing of the first round of the 2nd act of Steemit Iron Chef 2021! The last 7 days went so quickly and later today the chef will be announcing the 2nd theme for the contestants to work on the next 7 days!!!

What a great number of entrants!!!

It is simply amazing to see how many participants joined us for this first round...57 ENTRIES!!!

If you look around other contests on the Steemit Platform...not many contests manage to get such a high rate of participation and nearly all of the entrants have been producing top quality posts - THANK YOU ALL!

Round 01 Is over and out !!!

Well if I receive some new entrants ... I will surely have a look and hopefully take them into consideration before I complete the judging!

Booming Support

As you are all aware, we have been granted the booming support once again and will last at least until the end of September 2021, then we will have to re-apply and see if we are selected or not for October, I will keep you informed!

Everyday I nominate minimum 4 posts in our community and since August, they have all been accepted and curated accordingly!

Make top quality post and get good rewards!

This is a simple equation for success in SIC Community! The more effort you make in writing your post...the higher are your chances to get bigger rewards!

Round 01 Results

With this high number of entries + the new #foodcolorchallenge launched, I am getting more busy than before...but I will try me level best to complete the judging by Sunday and make the winners announcement!

For now...please support each other!

The chef + my account will give 100% votes to all valid entries, this is guaranteed...but it would be just great if all 57 participants cast a vote on all the entries...and also leave some genuine comments!

Counting on you all to keep our level of engagement to the highest possible...it is only like this that more support will come our way from the Steemit Team!

Let's keep up the hard work!

Ps. Dont forget to enter the daily food color challenge - There's 5 STEEM that will be given away everyday to top entries!

Stay tuned for the theme of the 2nd round on @progressivechef's blog later today!

Wish you well!
