Daniel Humm Will Part Ways With the NoMad Hotel

"I learned that Humm opened the NoMad with his former business partner Will Guidara in 2012 and has now alerted staff that he’ll no longer be working with the NoMad Hotel. The Sydell Group will take over restaurant operations from Humm’s Make It Nice hospitality group; beverage director Leo Robitschek and wine director Thomas Pastuszak have agreed to remain while Sydell looks for a new executive chef, and the deal should be finalized by the end of the week. Humm called the move “a very difficult decision,” writing that “Partnerships can end, and restaurants can change — that doesn’t mean they can’t continue to grow,” and on Instagram he added, “It was not for a lack of trying — this was not the outcome I wanted or hoped for… but, at the end of the day, we just could not see eye to eye.”" - Nikita Richardson
