One winner will receive a one-on-one mentorship with every person on this Board. And a cash prize of $5,000 to kick start your dreams! #chefs #cooks #cashprize #mentorship

Meet our final 2026 Honorable Mention: @ramenbyra owned by Rasheeda Purdie. Based in New York, Rasheeda is redefining the city’s brunch scene with her breakfast ramen concept, changing the way we think about traditional ramen. It’s clever, comforting, and honestly, the perfect hangover cure. 🍜 #nyc #comfortfood #chefspotlight #intentionaldesign

We’re inspired to share one of our 2025 Honorable Mentions: @forsythfireescape by Isabel Lee. What began as a creative experiment on a New York fire escape has grown into a vibrant dining concept blending Chinese, Thai, and Dominican flavors. Meeting Isabel was such a highlight, we’ll definitely be stopping by for a taste next time we’re in the city. 🌶️ #NYC #diningconcept #chefspotlight

Dala here 👋🏽 Each year I get to call the winner of Off the Menu to share that they won. This is the moment I pinch myself - the hours upon hours that the Off the Menu team dedicates to making this program a success, and it all comes down to this moment where I get to tell someone that we are changing the trajectory of their culinary life. I’m so thankful for the impact this program makes, to the chefs, the Mentors, and for myself as well ❤️ #offthemenu #chefs
