Christian Pugliesi and Kim Rossen, who met each other when working at noma, are in early April going to open their brand new restaurant Relæ in the Nørrebro area of CPH.
From what I understand their philosophy is similar the one of the successful Le Chateaubriand – very good food, wine and atmosphere combined with high-quality at low price (40-45€/four courses).
The concept is intriguing and I’m certain it’s going to be a success with the experience and talent both posses. What I also find interesting about this restaurant to be, is how Christian and Kim utilize the internet and in the best web 2.0 manner, spread the news about their place in a down to earth and very trustworthy and authentic way on the blog Relæ http://relae.wordpress.com/. This means that you can follow the genesis of the restaurant and all the chef’s thoughts about the big decisions and the small details. Ultimately it makes me want to experience this restaurant even more. My luck I don’t live too far from it .
Watch the interview with Christian Pugliesi and Kim Rossen:

At the Omnivore Food Festival Rasmus Kofoed, former co-owner of Geranium, reveals that a new press release will be sent out in about a week’s time stating the exciting news about the new restaurant he and Søren Ledet are going to open later this year. Check-out the interview by Laurent, Gastros on Tour, recording by Stephane. Like Geranium this new restaurant will also be located in a garden, but different from King’s Garden… where I wonder. What’s your guess?
So, I’d just like to stress that I cannot see that anything has really changed since elBulli sent out the press lease on 26th January about the future plans of the restaurant.

In an interview last Friday (February 12th) Ferran Adriá informed that in December 2011 El Bulli will close for good. This was stated on the Diner’s Journal about dining out on the New York Times blog.
OK, so after the January announcement of the closure of two years I guess that we’re not that surprised about this news. But as Ferran Adrià is and for years has been such a huge source of inspiration to gastronomy, I wonder what the closure will mean for the whole culinary world. I’m interested in knowing if it will affect how people find gastronomical inspiration? Where will people be looking for inspiration? What do you think?
