Thanks to the generous sponsorship from La Cage, our participants and celebrities were treated to a tailor-made gourmet menu to give them strength for the competition, which turned out to be quite fierce. Congratulations to Billy Karaoke’s team for winning this year\u2019s tournament and fighting until the end to give us a thrilling finale.<\/span><\/p>\n
