The Danish chef and four-time winner of the World's Best Restaurant for Noma, in Copenhagen, Denmark, opened his eagerly awaited pop-up restaurant in Sydney, Australia, on Jan 26. The menu is testimony to Redzepi's skill in getting the best out of local produce, with a host of dishes largely inspired by Aboriginal culture. Here's a closer look at what's cooking at Noma Australia.
For 10 weeks only, Rene Redzepi will be in the kitchen of a pop-up Australian restaurant, borrowing its name from his world-famous Copenhagen eatery. But the menu at Noma Australia couldn't be more different from the original Strandgade address, with Redzepi's locavore cuisine proving inevitably respectful of his new surroundings and the seasons. Over the last few months, the Danish chef has dipped into Australia's finest culinary resources to build a menu which – consciously or unconsciously – pays homage to the country's vast gastronomic diversity.
