And desserts? Yes. We had three and they were as daring and unconventional as every other course. The first featured a creamy parfait of buttermilk, a common Danish ingredient, topped with an uncommon ‘mother’ of kombucha. The second multilayered dessert, a beeswax bowl served atop leaves and cacao pods, had layers of saffron ice cream and spicy Mexican chocolate as well as a poppy seed and licorice topping. Our final Noma dessert course, served in a reindeer bone, featured sweet reindeer marrow, blueberries and flower petals. The LED components are now made from copper which eliminates the traditional problem of rust within the bulb holder. I first ate at Noma a dozen years ago, when it was still in a damp semi-basement with paint peeling off the wall; they moved to the sleek, stripped-wood “Noma 2.0” in 2018. The restaurant has regularly ranked among the top 10 on the “World’s 50 Best Restaurants” list, including No 2 in 2019 and No 1 for three years running from 2010 to 2012 as well as in 2021.
Caviar and cream in some variation is another Noma signature, which comes in a brilliant version for the game and forest season. The caviar is from the Danish producer Rossini, so high quality, and served with a dollop of the lightest whipped cream you can imagine (with tiny sprinkles of salt on top, I believe). The two ingredients are paired with a cold pheasant broth, which has formed a jelly in the bottom of the bowl. I loved this one! Small items may not require a date to be booked in, a courier may arrive whenever they have the availability to deliver, they may ask you for delivery instructions if you are not in on the date of attempted delivery. Did we mention that we started our evening by hopping on a bus to travel across town to Noma? Considering the restaurant’s ginormous price tag and multinational clientele, we were likely the only diners that night who were that ‘in touch with the city’ and our wallets.

Whether you place this deer in your garden or on your patio you are sure to fast become the wonder of the neighbourhood! The restaurant, by choice, seats fewer than 100 diners each day. Tens of thousands of people attempt to pry one of Noma’s precious few tables the moment that each dining ‘season’ opens for reservations. It’s that competitive. We’d love to know who else would take a bus to such an extravagant event. On one hand, it seems silly not to spring for a taxi. Then again, perhaps the bus is more appropriate because, despite Noma’s astronomical price, something about the place still feels grounded and unpretentious. Food At Noma In this dish, shaved beets were arranged like flower petals over plum and piquant cloudberries.
Weeks after eating at the legendary restaurant, after our lives had returned to their normal rhythm, we couldn’t stop glancing into each other’s eyes, wistfully realizing that we had eaten at the best restaurant in the world. We’d then announce “we ate as Noma!” as a reminder and private badge of glory. We even ate bear. Noma may be the only restaurant in the world that serves bear dumplings. The spoon on the side featured a drizzle of “Bear Caramel.” In 2025, our restaurant is transforming into a giant lab, a pioneering test kitchen dedicated to the work of food innovation and the development of new flavours, one that will share the fruits of our efforts more widely than ever before.” Complete with easy timer which allows you to set your lights to come on for the same 8 hours each day, simply press the button when you want them to come on and they will stay on for 8 hours. They will come on at the same time every day until you reset them! If you would prefer the timer can be turned off completely. We couldn’t help but notice a certain element of genius born of necessity in dishes like the deliciously odd (or was it oddly delicious?) bear dumpling. Noma isn’t located in an agricultural hotbed like Italy, France or even Thailand. Its Nordic locale forces chefs like Redzepi to use the limitations of the region to stretch culinary creativity in new and exciting ways. Noma’s “Mushroom Broth with Sumac” may be the most innovative course we’ve ever eaten.Finally, in an intentional nod toward our ossified first course, a piece of reindeer skeleton appeared. But this time it was a narrow, long bone filled with sweet, honey-like reindeer marrow, dotted with freeze dried blueberries and topped with a lovely yet subtle confetti of flowers.
