Chef and owner of Decca, Annie Pettry is departing from her upscale restaurant. Pettry announced on Decca’s social media channels Monday afternoon.

“It is with a heavy heart that I share with you that after 9 amazing years my time in Louisville and as the Chef Owner of Decca Restaurant has come to an end. This has been a long and difficult decision to make but in my heart I know it is the right one. Although, I am super sad, I’m so very grateful for all of the wonderful experiences and lovely people that I’ve been blessed with knowing because of Decca. You will always hold a special place in my heart and I hope that our paths cross again soon,” Pettry said.
