If you’ve never heard of Eleven Madison Park, all you need to know is that it’s a Michelin starred, multiple award-winning super expensive restaurant.
And now its own Daniel Humm is getting in the bagel game, as Eaterrevealed.
Black Seed (a New York artisanal bagel bakery) continues its monthly bagel partnership series, and this time they’ve hooked chef Daniel Humm for their next venture. Daniel Humm’s June bagel creation is a celery seed bagel with black truffle cream cheese, smoked sturgeon, pickled celery root, pickled shallots, and thinly sliced celery.
But all that sturgeon ain’t cheap. We’re talking about $16.50 a bagel. I guess that’s just the price of art.
I mean, it has nothing on the $1,000 gold-flecked bagel of tabloid fame, but still.
Bon appetit!
