Eleven Madison Park is the perhaps most beautiful restaurant in New York . . . a fitting backdrop to Daniel Humm's spectacular modernist cuisine, which has just received its third Michelin star.

That is what has made him a leader in the industry and Eleven Madison one of the best restaurants in the United States. --Grant Achatz, Alinea, Chicago

I have always thought of Daniel as a humble, unpretentious, understated character with a sharp, clever, and generous sense of humor. Dining at his legendary restaurant, Eleven Madison Park, not only did I have the feeling of being in a quintessentially New York space, but I also found that the food reflected his personality. Eating delicious food that makes you smile and laugh, while simply having a good time, is special. We can all indulge in this same experience page by page in his book. -- Rene Redzepi, Noma, Copenhagen
