Adam Sobel reflects on his competitive spirit, highlighting his intense focus and drive in Tournament of Champions while balancing the camaraderie and fun of the experience. The chef opens up about insights from culinary mentors like Jet Tila, emphasizing the importance of always having a "magic trick" up his sleeve to surprise both judges and diners alike. Adam explains his new hospitality group, Aether Group, and why he felt it was the right time to step out on his own, despite having one of the most coveted chef roles in the industry. He reflects on the deep friendships and sense of community that competitions foster, comparing them to "summer camp for chefs," where fierce battles in the kitchen give way to shared meals, storytelling, and support. The chef explores his love for Las Vegas as a culinary hub, calling it the true city that never sleeps, with unparalleled late-night dining and a thriving chef-driven culture. He recalls his title as King of Porc, a prestigious win in a whole hog cookery competition, detailing the grueling road to victory.
