Terratela Tales

We’ve partnered with world-renowned chef Diego Oka of La Mar, the acclaimed Peruvian restaurant in Miami, for a limited-edition t-shirt. Chef Oka is celebrated as one of the most creative, sensitive, and stylish culinary talents in the United States.

We teamed up with Food & Wine Best New Chef 2022 and James Beard 2023 Outstanding Chef Rob Rubba and his team at DC’s Oyster Oyster for the latest release.

One of the chefs who best incorporates this idea and our newest Terratela ambassador is Zizi Hattab from restaurants Kle and Dar in Zurich. We are proud to work alongside Zizi who has dedicated her restaurants towards developing some of the most delicious plant-based menus in the world.

Did you know that a truckload of abandoned textiles is dumped in landfill or incinerated every second? Or that it takes 2700 liters of water to make a cotton t-shirt? That’s enough water for a person to drink for two and a half years. We want consumers to question their choices when filling their wardrobes.

One of our first supporters is JP Park from the award-winning Atomix and NARO restaurants in our hometown of New York. JP and his partner, Ellia Park, helped us launch Terratela with an amazing dinner on Earth Day, and we love that Korean cuisine relies heavily on the use of seaweed, aligning perfectly with our first SeaFibe™ T-shirt which is made using regenerative seaweed from Iceland.
