Copenhagen 2008 Michelin


Recommended Posts

Noma didn't get a third, but Copenhagen retains its status as the #1 city in Scandinavia in terms of the number of restaurants with stars. Sweden continues to be the #1 country in Scandinavia however, with 12 star-restaurants in total... So now, the tourist boards can spin it either way :wink:

formel B *

It is note-worthy that formel B lost their rising star designation from last year. Many had expected them to get the 2nd star.

Also worth noting is that Kiin Kiin is the just 2nd thai restaurant in the world to have a star (according to the owner and danish media)

Can someone tell me whether the 12 stars is a record and if not, what's the max. number that Copenhagen has ever had?

Also, it could be interesting to know exactly what wasn't good enough for formel B to receive the second star this year. Anybody?

Everybody should have a change of dining at Noma - at least once in their life.

I can not believe that Noma didn't get it's 3rd star. I ate there in January and I have to say that I had the best meal ever (so far). I also ate at two other 3 stars on that gastro tour and they didn't come close. Keep going Rene it will come!

12 stars is indeed a record for Copenhagen.

As to why Formel B lost its rising star, I am not sure anyone other than the Michelin inspecotr knows. They have been getting consistently great reviews in danish media.

Noma just got its second star last year, they probably need to maintain their level of cooking for at least another year to get the 3rd star. I am rooting for them though...

Thanks a lot for input! :smile:
