We kept a small team employed, and with their remarkable effort, in collaboration with the nonprofit Rethink Food, we prepared close to a million meals for those experiencing food insecurity in New York | It was clear to me then that this work must become a cornerstone of our restaurant |
The essence of Eleven Madison Park is stronger than it has ever been, and we look forward to sharing this journey with you | It is time to redefine luxury as an experience that serves a higher purpose and maintains a genuine connection to the community |
