Odre New York

It’s never easy saying goodbye to a restaurant you genuinely love.

Last night marked the final service at @odre_nyc, and I can’t think of a more meaningful way to close this chapter than with a collaboration alongside @oilje_official.

The evening centered around Miyeokguk, the Korean seaweed soup that’s long been a symbol of love, care, and family. It’s the first meal many mothers eat after giving birth and a dish that returns every birthday as a quiet reminder of where life begins. I thought it was a beautiful choice for a final service because, in so many ways, that’s what restaurants are about too. They’re places where people come together, create memories, and care for one another through food.

A huge thank you to Chef @chunongpapa and the entire Odre team for so many memorable meals over the years. Your cooking, hospitality, and passion left a lasting impression on so many of us, and I’m grateful I had the chance to experience it.

Wishing you nothing but success in whatever comes next. I have no doubt this is only the beginning.

Swipe through for a look at one final unforgettable meal.
