A man who quit his job at JD Wetherspoon to become a chef is set to serve 1,000 litres of Scouse at Eurovision.
Adam Noble, 27, started his own street food business, Noble's Kitchen, in January this year and has spent the last four months serving pulled pork and pulled jackfruit buns from his food trailer in the likes of Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester.
The idea for Noble's Kitchen came after Adam was furloughed from his job as a manager at JD Wetherspoon during lockdown and decided to start his own food blog on Instagram, testing out different recipes from his family home in Fazakerley.
Adam has now landed the opportunity to serve food from his three metre by two metre trailer in Eurovision's Eurovillage, where he expects to serve 1,000 litres of Scouse from Friday 5 May up until the Grand Final on May 13, reports the Liverpool Echo.

Adam said: "I was a bar manager and restaurant manager for six years. I've always been passionate about food and drink as well, but obviously front of house when I was manager.
"I was just making food in the family home during lockdown and started an Instagram called Noble's Kitchen with recipes. I had 1,000 followers within a week and thought 'I must be doing something right.'"
In September 2021, Adam was involved in a serious motorbike crash which left him in a wheelchair for a few months. He said: "Going back to Wetherspoons [after the crash] was a big eyeopener. I didn't want to run someone else's business for them."
After quitting his job, Adam went on to work as a chef for the likes of Bill's in Liverpool ONE and Duke Street Market. With encouragement from his girlfriend of nine years Laura Bennett, Adam decided to start his own street food business in January alongside full-time employment.
Adam said: "I just put pen to paper and started writing a business plan. The idea behind the business was feed everyone great food as quick as possible.
"My late dad always said I should be a chef. It was never something I took on board until I realised 'my dad said this years ago.'"
Adam was keen to cater to different dietary requirements including gluten free and vegan food, as well as pulled beef for the Muslim community. As of last week, the 25-year-old decided to leave his job to focus on his business full-time ahead of Eurovision.
Adam said his friends and family including mum, June Noble, have been helping him with the business and have been really supportive. He now hopes "Eurovision will be the kick-starter to really make it a career."
