108

Copenhagen


In a soaring, concrete-pillared warehouse, 108 offers a more casual, accessible take on New Nordic cuisine than its world-renowned sibling Noma. The family-style sharing-plate menu is all about seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, farmed or foraged, preserved, fermented and pickled. While not all dishes hit the mark, many leave a lasting impression. Three dishes per diner should satiate most appetites.

Although the glazed pork here is legendary, don't overlook the seafood dishes, which might include silky crayfish served in a green tomato and crayfish-head broth, or fluffy monkfish glazed in a piquant, earthy sauce of fermented bread and mushrooms. Attached to the restaurant is 108's small cafe, The Corner, serving coffee and house-made pastries in the morning, a short lunch menu (95kr to 135kr) and one main in the evening (100kr). Wines are also served from midday.
