With Caribbean cuisine as the focus of Tuesday night’ show, one of the meals Fowles opted for was a Jamaican spiced shrimp with papaya chutney, which was a clear favorite by the judges.

Fowles is currently the resident sous-chef at Miss Lily’s Caribbean restaurant in New York.

Originally from Kingston, Fowles attended Donald Quarrie High School and was trained at the Runaway Bay HEART Academy. He credits his grandmother, Veronica Davis, affectionately called ‘Mama Cherry’ for his foray into the culinary arena.
