An elite hotel just got rid of its famed chef over his vegan plans
The owners of Claridge’s in London have saved Daniel Humm’s lavender-glazed duck from his plant-based fixation that’s already upended Eleven Madison Park.
Society owes a debt of gratitude to those who protect a work of genius, even if only from the genius who created it. Please join me in three huzzahs for the owners of Claridge’s hotel in London, who have just saved chef Daniel Humm’s lavender-glazed duck from his newfound vegan fixation.
The hotel, a grand old pile in London’s posh Mayfair neighbourhood, has turned down the chef’s proposal to convert its Davies and Brook restaurant, run by Humm for the past two years, into a vegan-only eatery along the lines of his New York flagship, Eleven Madison Park.
