Nomaの長らく待ち望まれ、完売したロサンゼルス・ポップアップがSilver LakeのParamour Estateで2026年3月11日にオープン。New York Timesによる創業者René Redzepi氏の過去虐待疑惑の調査、American ExpressとBlackbirdのスポンサー撤退、会場外でのOne Fair Wageの抗議予定にもかかわらず。
2003年にRené Redzepi氏が設立したコペンハーゲンの三ツ星レストランNoma（2010-2021年に世界最高峰に5回選出）は、2024年に通常営業を終了し、シドニー、京都、トゥルムに続く今回の16週間のLAイベントなどポップアップ形式に移行しました。1人1500ドル（返金不可・譲渡不可）の42席限定で、American Express傘下のTock経由で1月26日に60秒で完売、1晩あたり6万3000ドル、総額400万ドルの売上を見込む可能性があります。
Xユーザーやメディアアカウントは、New York Timesの調査で詳細に報じられたRené Redzepi氏の虐待疑惑、American ExpressとBlackbirdのスポンサー撤退、Paramour Estate外でのOne Fair Wageの抗議予定のさなか、Noma LAポップアップの開催について議論しています。フードジャーナリストは論争にもかかわらず完売イベントが進行中と報じ、一部の一般ユーザーはボイコットを呼びかけています。
