Between learning to love dosa in 2018 and ravishing a home-style Kashmiri meal in 2023, veteran chef Daniel Humm has found a certain fondness for India. "It is an incredibly special place," says the Swiss-origin restaurateur, who is at the helm of Eleven Madison Park (EMP) - New York's big league fine dine that's held the #No1 ranking in World's 50 Best Restaurants (2017); and made waves by becoming the first plant-based diner to have three Michelin stars.
When he writes to us, he is touring Kashmir heaven on earth, haven for culinarians with the team at Masque (ranked #No16 in Asia's 50 Best Restaurants 2023), as part of a sourcing trip. It was the precursor to a one-of-a-kind collaboration between the Manhattan institution and the award-winning, Mumbai-based, dining landmark, where Humm's signatures were re-interpreted through an Indian lens and fused with Masque's Head Chef, Varun Totlani's sensibilities for a special, limited-edition menu that lasted over a weekend in August.
