Sous Chef

noma

Hey! I'm Nate. I'm from Boston, but have been cooking at noma for the past 8 years, 4 of which have been spent as a sous chef helping to develop new dishes and menus in the test kitchen. Currently, I'm working my way towards going to graduate school. I believe it's impossible to choose a top 5 in Copenhagen as the city is spoilt with so much talent in the industry, but here's 5 of the many spots that I love to frequent.

» Some of the best pizza I've ever had. And Pizza is Love. «

Palæ Bar

beer, jazz

» As an expat, I'd be remiss to not include a bodega in my top five of CPH. Palæ Bar is not exactly a bodega--there is no smoking inside, but it oozes culture and history. Great spot for a cold pint. «

La Fontaine

bodega, jazz

» For a Sunday evening jaunt, this pearl of a jazz bar stands alone. Get there early if you want a seat. «

Det Vide Hus

breakfast, coffee, ice cream
