Congratulations to Jamaican Chef Andre Fowles. Although he didn’t win the “Chopped” Battle of Champions, he represented himself and Jamaica to the best of his ability and earned a second place finish. The winner, Chef Adam Greenberg, made special mention of Andre and their competition in the dessert round, which ultimately played a big role in the decision of the judges, saying that Andre “was such a good competitor…He was a great competitor. He was an honest competitor, He was fair, and I like that. I like that about people that if we both give it our all, we’re on an even playing field.”
