PRICE: $75
per person

 

In the early 2000s, a young chef and a culinary entrepreneur opened a small restaurant in Christianshavn that would come to redefine Nordic cuisine. This walking tour begins where it all started — at the original location of NOMA — and traces the restaurant’s journey and lasting impact across Copenhagen.
Over 2 hours, you’ll explore how the New Nordic Food Manifesto transformed not just fine dining, but everyday food culture throughout the region. Along the way, you’ll enjoy two tastings from places directly influenced by this gastronomic revolution — from reimagined smørrebrød to bold, world-class baked goods.
Your guide will share the story of how figures like René Redzepi and Claus Meyer challenged tradition, championed local ingredients, and sparked a global movement. As we make our way through the city — including a visit to the current site of NOMA — we’ll connect the dots between past and present, giving you fresh insight into what food means in Copenhagen and the Nordic world today.
