The Antigua and Barbuda Hotels and Tourism Association (ABHTA) has congratulated Chef Eustace Cabral Jr. of Jumby Bay Island Resort and Chef Maurine Bowers of Moon Gate Antigua following their appearance on BBC MasterChef UK’s Finals Week episode.

The episode, which aired on June 3 on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, showcased Antigua and Barbuda’s culinary heritage and local talent to audiences in the United Kingdom and beyond.

According to the ABHTA, Bowers guided finalists through the preparation of traditional Antiguan dishes at Nelson’s Dockyard, while Cabral challenged contestants to recreate contemporary Caribbean-inspired cuisine at the Jumby Bay Estate House.
