"NoMad Restaurant, the Sydell Group partnership with 2017 World’s Best Restaurant winners chef Daniel Humm and restaurateur Will Guidara, makes its highly anticipated debut tonight with soaring ceilings overlooking a three-story library replete with more than 20,000 books. The sophisticated decor takes its inspiration from the Royal Portuguese Cabinet of Reading in Rio de Janeiro as well as the original NoMad in New York City. Rich Bordeaux velvet swaddles the seating, duplicating its sister restaurant NoMad Bar’s vibe across the hallway. So far, much of the menu remains under wraps, but diners can expect American classics interpreted as only Humm can with theatrical splendor. Communal courses sit alongside a selection of salads, pastas, and entrees, complimented by large-format dishes for two, including the restaurant’s signature roast chicken. Humm and Guidara’s Make It Nice includes the NoMad hotels in New York and Los Angeles, Made Nice, and Eleven Madison Park in Manhattan’s Flatiron District with its six James Beard Foundation Awards, three Michelin stars, and No. 1 ranking by the World’s 50 Best in 2017." - Susan Stapleton
