Bravo, producers of Top Chef ™ Season 21, say: 

"Jacobs, who lives in Milwaukee, is no stranger to this season’s Wisconsin backdrop. He’s the head chef and co-owner of popular Milwaukee restaurants EsterEv and DanDan. Jacobs was diagnosed with Kennedy’s Disease, a genetic neuromuscular ailment that is often mistaken for ALS. The disease can make simple tasks like chopping up an onion difficult, so the pro chef is “proud to run two standout restaurants,” according to Bravo."
