That’s 14 stars when counting the rising as half a star.

Latest news I’ve got is that we will know the result Monday or Tuesday next week.

My only other Michelin restaurant experience in Cph being Kiin Kiin, I will say they are probably better than most of the one-star restaurants in L.A., definitely better than the ones I’ve been to.

Geranium must be on the list for my next visit. And Søllerød Kro is very tempting, just for the desserts!

You left Kiin Kiin off your final list.

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts here! Your remark about formel B stroke me. Too serious is what I too felt about two years ago, when I went there last.

Laurent, dear, I am so thrilled to hear this! I would love to see Geranium with ** and noma with *** but the quetion is when the Michelin settle their rating. I’m afraid that this progress have shown too late for this year’s guide?

- Noma has clearly a 3* level (best meal from the 3 i made there since 2 years)
- Geranium : 2* for sure, was so impressed by this meal, significant progress compared to last year.

Hope the Michelin guys will do it and take a little bit more risks than here in France (which is not that difficult).

Cheers
Laurent

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Unfortunately I don’t get out so much anymore, so I feel a little bit outdated on some of the restaurants.

Noma and Geranium are my favourites – I am not always sure how to rank them – it depends on the evening. But overall – Noma comes in first, as they just have a broader spectrum of flavours on the plate. As a wine lower I am seriously impressed with the way Noma expresses texture, when you blend the ingredients on the plates together. It’s simply breathtaking. Geraniums food can at times be almost too perfect – I feel like I am eating a competition dish. Still they play a lot with humour and humbleness, so it feels natural and overall it’s no problem. Both restaurants have a high level of elegance and lightness in their food and I that’s what separates and good and a spectacular restaurants in my opinion. Talking wine, I find Geraniums rather restricted biodynamic wine list intriguing. They have a lot of new rising stars on it. However, no one comes close to sommelier; Pontus from Noma – even though I really like Søren Ledet from Geranium.

I vistit Noma again on the 21st of March, so I get a fresh update

Søllerød have improved a lot – and I really like coming back to the place as a reference point. When it comes to wine tastings with classic French wines – that’s the place to be.

Formel B – I visited about a month ago. It was really nice, actually. Food is lighter and really precise. But I missed some soul there – I can’t explain it, maybe everything from atmosphere and interior just too serious.

Herman – good restaurant with great food. Beautiful location Great service – some of the best I have seen in Copenhagen. The wine list is ridiculous expensive.

Era Ora – visited for lunch some month back. Not much have changed. I just had dinner @ Assaggi and Zafferano in London, both * Michelin. Era Ora is 100 times better than these two – but yes I can see the level is constantly rising in Copenhagen. But I certainly feel they should keep the *.

Paustian, Kong Hans, The Paul, MR and Ensemble – it’s been to long since I have visited, so I can’t comment.

If it where up to me:

Noma ***
Geranium **
Søllerød Kro *(*)
Era Ora *
Herman *
Formel B *

/Thomas

Le Bristol receives its third. Quiet edition with 9 new 2 stars and a lot of new 1* including Agapé or Bigarrade. France still counts around 550 michelin starred restaurants : 26 ***, 74** and more then 440*

Cheers

Laurent

ps) D-3 for Noma… héhé

Personally I cant see the rain over Copenhagen this time. I think Ensemble and Era Ora are in the risk zone, Herman might get one and Noma might get the rising third.

Other European stars came out, and Im happy too see that Schlossberg in Nennig and Clairefontaine in Luxembourg – two of my favourite local places – have both kept their 3 and 1 star rating.
