His winning plate, featuring a tempura lobster lollipop and lobster ceviche, was a flavorful tribute to New England’s multicultural roots. The competition, held at the Morial Convention Center, celebrated the nation’s seafood talent and the unsung heroes who bring it to our tables. Second place went to Chef Ferrell Alvarez with snapper aguachile, and third to Chef Mike Parhm with binchotan grilled Gulf redfish. This victory continues a legacy — Chef Erin Miller previously won in 2022 and 2024 — proving Massachusetts is the undisputed seafood powerhouse on the national stage.
