Chef/owner is Bo Jacobsen and the focus of the food is traditional Danish dishes. My recommandations for Sunday night is Søllerød Kro or Manfreds & Vin (Relæ's "baby brother" accross the street).Let me know if this doesn't surafce! :-) Simon,

Thank you very very much for you sweet words. :-) :-) Congrats and enjoy Noma, wow! Go for AOC, the contrast will work well I think. Take Schønnemann if Classic smørrebrød is no 1 for you or Aamanns if you fancy a more modern style ;-). Torvehallerne is nice but not near Boulevard Raspail. Hey hungry hungry hippo!

From a long-time reader of your blog - truly one of the best, Denmark or anywhere. Will be in Copenhagen for 2 full days and am lucky enough to have a Noma dinner reservation; would you go for AOC or Fiskebaren the other night? It was always going to be AOC but then thought the latter might be a better balance - or am I mistaken? Wish one of them would be open for lunch... and how do Schonnemann and Kanalcafeen compare to Aamanns? Would go for the latter except they're opening a branch here in New York. Thanks in advance!

I'd say that the 7 course menu is ok for lunch but the 12 course might be better for the evening. No prob at all with the allergie, just mention it when Noma writes you to confirm your reservation (2 weeks in advance). Hope you'll have a wonderful experience! :-) Hey Nina

Your blog is fantastic - my husband and I truly enjoy reading your posts. I had a question regarding Noma: do you have a preference between lunch and dinner? My husband and I had the good fortune of securing two reservations (one for lunch at 12:30 and the other for dinner at 19:00) and while the date of the lunch reservation would be more convenient for us, we have a track record of slowly savoring such meals and don't want to feel rushed if they close at 4 pm. Is 3.5 hrs enough time for the experience? Or is our dinner reservation a better option? Thank you in advance! Hi Trine! Your blog is fantastic – my husband and I truly enjoy reading your posts.

But, to be perfectly honest I'd take her for a beer in Nyhavn and lunch somewhere else like Schønnemann http://www.restaurantschonnemann.dk/ or Aamanns - more value for money. :-) Hi Metz

Your list looks good. For Sunday, you could take brunch at http://manfreds.dk/ Or you could swap Søllerød Kro dinner for lunch and have dinner at Geist (pick shrimps and zucchini plus the turbot ravioli dish if available), or Ricemarket which is casual by the way. Thanks Jamie. Your list looks good.
