'I'm so happy, I can not believe I won, it feels like a dream,' a somewhat more composed but clearly still elated Heather told the show's cameras during a later confessional. 'Heather clearly has great leadership qualities and this, for a 25-year-old cook, is a phenomenon - this woman is going to be a big success.' She stuck to what she knew best and she controlled her kitchen from start to finish,' Gordon explained to the cameras. 'Heather won Hell's Kitchen due to her determination. 'Thank you Chef, thank you,' Heather told Gordon as she hugged him. oh my god,' a tearful Heather exclaimed after opening an unlocked Hell's Kitchen restaurant door that revealed her victory and a cheering crowd of supporters. In addition to becoming T-Bones' executive chef, Heather also received an undisclosed 'financial interest' in the restaurant. As Hell's Kitchen 2's winner, Heather, a 26-year-old sous chef from Port Jefferson, NY, received the executive chef position at the T-Bones Chophouse & Lounge restaurant in the Red Rock Casino Resort Spa, a new Las Vegas casino that opened in April.
