This week's episode was recorded live at the Culinary Academy of Las Vegas, and centers around a conversation with chef/instructors, Nick Preston and Culinary Apprenticeship Coordinator Chiara Astriab. They share all sorts of info on how they can help advance your culinary career, whether it's a new idea or a continuation of your journey.

Other interviews this episode include Evan Glussman talking about the opening of Bramare, and Richard Femenella discussing the brand new Mae Daly's. We also have news on Bastille Day celebrations at March Bacchus, Sparrow + Wolf and Mon Amu Gabi (plus a short interview about wine pairing with the latter's sommelier). And you'll hear about Al's recent visits to Eat Your Heart Out Food Hall, Boom Bang and Hard Hat Lounge, as well as some of Gemini's recent takeout adventures.
