Swiss-born Daniel Humm is the feted chef and co-owner of Eleven Madison Park, and the NoMad and NoMad Bar at the eponymous hotel. Humm began working in kitchens at just 14, and at the age of 24 earned his first Michelin star in Switzerland. In 2006 he became the executive chef of Eleven Madison Park. Three Michelin stars and six James Beard Awards (among many other accolades) later, the restaurant is one of New York's most coveted reservations. Herewith, a look at Humm's "desk"—the chefs workstation in his acclaimed kitchen.
