I can really recommend the restaurant 108.
It’s currently a pop-up restaurant at Noma’s premises here in Copenhagen and they call it their “training camp”. The restaurant will re-open in their own new premises mid April in Strandgade 108. That’s why it’s currently called 108 at Noma. 108 is Noma’s littlebrother restaurant.
108 has got the same kind of cooking style as Noma, but without the strict rules. And 108 a different and more low key set-up with a selection of small dishes and no fixed menu. The prices are much lower and the atmosphere is more relaxed.
The Wednesday night we were dining at 108 they played quite loud rock music – and it was actually nice. They also have big common tables to give it that more low key feeling.
I think we got an extraordinary good and unpretentious service. They really made us feel welcome and as a guest you got the feeling that they really love their work and had fun at the same time. The food was exquisite with new and different combination of flavors. All servings were beautiful made on stoneware.
We had these 5 dishes:
CURED SQUID
squid, bacon broth and mirabelle plums
LUMPFISH ROE
with green strawberries and hip berries
BRAISED OX TAILS
with coriander seeds and fresh pine
PORK BELLY
with green gooseberries and spruce
ICE CREAM
rausu kombu ice cream with roasted barley cream and blackcurrant wood oil
