Welcome

Food has always been a big part of my life. Being born into a rather food-obsessed family, with a mother who took the time to cook everything from scratch, I was constantly surrounded by authentic home-cooked Korean Food as a child. More about Judy

@judyjoochef Instagram profile image🔥 Cooking up some K-Quick flavor on @fox5ny’s @gooddayny with the amazing @rosannascotto and @curtmenefee! 

We made one of Korea’s most trending dishes — Sweet & Spicy Rice Cakes (Tteokbokki) — chewy, bold, and totally addictive 🇰🇷✨

So much fun sharing a taste of Korea with the GDNY team — thanks for the warm welcome and great energy!

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageSuch a special and fun night @citifield with the @amazinmetsfdn and the @mets 💙🧡

It was incredible to be part of Home Runs & Highballs — an evening full of heart, laughter, and community.

Huge thanks to @tiaalexnymets & Steve Cohen for the amazing work they do to support so many in need across New York and beyond. The Mets Foundation funds housing, food insecurity, education, health & wellness, youth development & programs, and more.... Truly inspiring. 

And, what a treat to see @seoulbirduk on the menu! It was an honor to  share a little taste of Seoul Bird at such a meaningful event.

An unforgettable night for an incredible cause.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageNot your average pizza party @stretchpizzanyc 🍕💥

Cheers to @choibites & @wyliedufresne for hosting an unforgettable AAPI celebration — a fusion of Korean-American-Italian hearts and Seoul.

And that bulgogi pizza? Chef’s kiss 👩🏻‍🍳🔥

So happy to be part of a night that honored the power of food to connect, reflect, and to celebrate cultural stories.

And a special shoutout to my Seoul sister Esther Choi — we’ve shared laughter, tears, travels... and now, slices of pizza. What a journey. ❤️
