Gabe Bertaccini shares how a spontaneous weekend in New York City made him fall in love with its vibrant energy and ultimately led to his new bi-coastal lifestyle. He reminisces about the contrasting pace and personality of Los Angeles, where he still treasures his connection to nature. The chef dishes on his nerve-wracking competition debut on Wildcard Kitchen and the intense challenges of 24 in 24: Last Chef Standing, where lack of sleep, spicy street food, and imposter syndrome tested his limits. Gabe reflects on how competing has deepened his empathy and reshaped his approach to judging. The chef honors Anne Burrell with stories of their meaningful connection on Worst Cooks in America, including a touching moment when she crocheted him a heart and made him a hot toddy while he was under the weather. Gabe shares his mentoring style, emphasizing patience, specificity, and the joy of watching even the most hopeless recruits find confidence in the kitchen.
