The World’s 50 Best Restaurants
Perfect day trip lunch at No. 27 of the world: Restaurant The Clove Club (31. October 2019)
How does the perfect day look like? Fly to London in the morning, have lunch at No. 27 of the world, The Clove Club, and fly back in the evening. That was my program for the day! Definitely something you can and should do. Visiting The Clove Club for lunch is an absolutely memorable experience. […]
Outstanding lunch with the only female three star chef in France: Restaurant Anne-Sophie Pic (1. August 2019)
Anne-Sophie Pic is the only French female chef in France which has been awarded three Michelin stars in 2007 and still has them. The “Maison Pic” is located in Valence and is a rather ‘normal’ place from the outside although it carries the name quite visible at the entrance. One of the first things you […]
Not keeping up with the original restaurant of Enrique Olvera: Restaurant Cosme (16. June 2019)
I had such high expectations for the second restaurant of Enrique Olvera (he is also the owner of Pujol in Mexico City which I loved when I visited it last in 2012) and I must say, I was partially disappointed. When you arrive, they make sure you’re brought to your table relatively swiftly. But then […]
Once in a lifetime experience with a visit to the kitchen: Restaurant Eleven Madison Park (14. June 2019)
Dining at the Eleven Madison Park was on my bucket list for a while and it was finally the day when this was possible. You have to be super swift the moment the booking opens as pretty much the whole month is sold out within two minutes. I was lucky enough to score a booking […]
It’s easy to understand why this used to be No. 1 in the world: Restaurant Noma 2.0 (1. June 2019)
Getting a table at noma is something I intended to do since 2010 and haven’t succeeded until today – well, until September to be more precise. Finally, the day to visit noma had arrived. When you enter, you’re presented with a lovely interior and if you’re lucky you even get the table right in front […]
Interesting concept but unmotivated waiters: Restaurant Relæ (31. May 2019)
This weekend I somehow ended up again and again in the Jægersborggade and the Relæ was the place of choice. They offer a “Relæ Menu” (475 DKK) which is basically a tasting menu which started with “new potatoes and summer truffle” which was a pleasant start into the meal. The first dish looked incredibly bland […]
Very traditional local dishes you’d normally not have for breakfast: Restaurant Fäviken Magasinet (12. May 2019)
After a luscious meal in the evening, it was time to also try breakfast (250 SEK) in the Fäviken Magasinet. The table is preset and you don’t get to pick what you want to eat but the selection is sufficient … … with a freshly prepared jam … … a traditional cheese as well as […]
The best king crab I’ve ever had: Restaurant Fäviken Magasinet (11. May 2019)
I was first inspired by the Fäviken when I saw the episode on Chef’s Table in October last year. The idea of going to an absolutely remote location to try exquisite food was really appealing to me. However, actually getting there turned out to be much more of a hassle than initially expected. After flying […]
