David Chang's restaurant group Momofuku has named its first CEO: 29-year-old Marguerite Zabar Mariscal, reports Eater. Mariscal rose through the ranks after joining as an intern in 2011.
Momofuku president Alex Munoz-Suarez now reports to Mariscal. She's charged with overseeing all aspects of the business, including opening new restaurants, new liens of business such as consumer packaged goods, and overall brand growth.
The structural change will give Chang more on-the-ground time at Momofuku's new restaurants, training chefs and instilling company culture in those new places, as well as allow him to focus on media and spend more time with his newborn son, a big factor driving the changes, Mariscal says.
