NOMA has inspired Danish restaurants to be among the worlds best

STORY

The Michelin stars have again been given recommendations and Denmark’s NOMA was again in the very top with 3 stars. NOMA was 4 times awarded as the worlds best restaurant between 2011 and 2019.

NOMA has inspired the Copenhagen and Denmark restaurant stage and the result came this year with a new record-breaking 27 restaurants getting Michelin stars.
The Director of the national tourist organisation VisitDenmark Flemming Bruun are “very proud proud of the new Nordic kitchen now have a wide range of Michelin star restaurants all over Denmark”.


What is a Nordic Michelin kitchen?

The Nordic kitchen is define by using plants, vegetables  and animals from the Nordic countries, that were either not used for cooking before – or not prepared like this before.
When you have lunch or dinner at NOMA or the other restaurants, are you often served 6, 12 or even more plates. 

NOMA head chef Rene Redzepi explains at the award ceremony: “We consider Noma as a service, as a spirit, when we attack our guests – which we are so proud of”.

Noma moved in 2018 from the city to the port of Copenhagen. Here are they growing there own special vegetables, inorder to be able to serve new dishes never seen before, all year round.

Michelin gave 27 stars of which 2 got 3 stars, 7 got 2 stars, 18 got 1 star, and many restaurants got various fine recommendations.
Formel B got 1 star and is located in the inner city. Head Chef Asger Majgaard Klausen, explains: “I would say that food in this restaurant is like anchored in French cuisine, but with Nordic ingredients. We have also taken the Nordic way of making food into us, but we get inspired from all over the world, from Asia to Mexico.”

Michelin also awarded NOMA’s head chef Rene Redzepi the Michelin Chef Mentor Award “in recognition of the huge influence he has had on many chefs who passed through his world-famous kitchen”, as Michelin writes in there pressrelease.
Michelin Headoffice is located in Paris and visits restaurants all over the world anonymously.
