noma in Copenhagen the world's best restaurant 2012

Third time in a row noma was yet again voted the world's best restaurant making Copenhagen's position as one of the leading culinary destinations of Europe even stronger. Copenhagen has become a magnet for food-savvy travelers who plan vacations around chefs, restaurants, local cuisine and food, wine and beer events. With 14 Michelin stars and 12 Bib Gourmand awards, not to mention noma and Rasmus Kofoed winner of Bocuse d'Or 2011, Copenhagen is the indisputable epicentre of the New Nordic Cuisine movement.

Copenhagen Cooking

A great way to experience Copenhagen’s food scene is to visit the city during the Copenhagen Cooking Festival, which is fast becoming a fixture on every food lover’s calendar. Look for special events and tastings of everything from green cuisine (we are devoted to our local produce!) to Danish beer (naturally!), as well as unique festival menus offered by restaurants and cafés all over the city.

For all Tastebuds and Budgets

Copenhagen’s culinary scene goes beyond its Michelin stars and its annual food festival. Across the city, chefs are adapting time-honored Danish dishes to innovative preparations and it's all about using local produce staying true to the Nordic legacy and the changning seasons. “New Nordic” is more than just a catchphrase - it's a movement with its very own manifesto - and it offers something for all tastebuds and budgets.
