AIR JORDAN 1 '85 OG EARLY ACCESS DINNER

THE BRIEF

Curate a menu and produce the early access VIP dinner for the Air Jordan 1 '85 OG

THE RESULT

Inspired by Michael Jordan’s favourite foods, the menu paid homage to his legacy while creating a memorable dining experience for 23 VIP guests – his iconic jersey number. The first course featured a “Bred Basket” with local flair, including freshly grilled roosterkoek and black sesame-infused bread, served with biltong butter and smoortjie. The main course was flame-grilled ribeye with classic sharing sides – Caesar salad, garlic-infused creamed spinach, and grilled pumpkin pie with maple glaze. (Each ribeye was seared with the Jumpman logo, adding a bold tribute to the sneaker legend.) Dessert paid tribute to comfort food with an ice cream cookie sandwich.
