Eleven Madison Park’s chef-owner Daniel Humm says that his fine-dining Manhattan restaurant will reopen for business during the next six months. This follows several months in which the future of the restaurant, named No. 1 in the world in 2017, was in question.
In May, Humm told Bloomberg Pursuits that he was not certain he would again serve customers in the soaring space off Madison Park, even after the pandemic ends. “It will take millions of dollars to reopen,” he said at the time. “You have to bring back staff. I work with fancy equipment in a big space. I want to continue to cook with the most beautiful and precious ingredients in a creative way, but at the same time, it needs to make sense.”
