"I've decided to step away and allow our extraordinary leaders to now guide the restaurant into its next chapter."
The head chef of Noma, one of the highest-rated restaurants in the world, has resigned amid allegations of abuse.
Former employees had accused René Redzepi of creating a toxic work environment, including verbal and physical abuse, according to media reports.
The fine-dining establishment, which is based in Denmark, has been preparing for a Los Angeles residency.
But corporate sponsors pulled out after the abuse claims and protests outside his pop-up location.
