Eleven Madison Park Abandons Its All-Vegan Menu, Bringing Back Fish, Meat And Honey-Glazed Duck

Eleven Madison Park is reintroducing meat to improve business and customer satisfaction after vegan-only menus led to fewer bookings and a drop in wine sales, Chef Daniel Humm said.

  • Chef Daniel Humm announced on Wednesday that Eleven Madison Park in New York will reintroduce meat and seafood starting October 14 after four years as a vegan restaurant.
  • This change follows lagging business and sparse bookings for private events, with Humm noting difficulty getting 30 people for corporate dinners at a plant-based venue.
  • During its vegan era since reopening in 2021, the restaurant offered a 10-course $365 vegan tasting menu and created a new culinary language featuring plant-based alternatives.
  • Humm acknowledged feeling nervous about being labeled a hypocrite but believes that fostering an inclusive dining experience is key to supporting plant-based cuisine.
  • The reintroduction of meat and seafood, including honey-lavender-glazed duck, aims to welcome broader diners and address economic sustainability, implying a strategic shift for the restaurant.
