FOUR COURSE PRIX FIXE MENU
The food is remarkably innovative, harmonious, and balanced. I like the restaurant itself as well, modern wooden furniture with funky Scandinavian decor. The restaurant staff took care of us all through the meal and the food was absolutely delicious.

Crisp flatbread and warm Danish rye bread with creamy brown butter and sea salt flakes.
