After the Faroe Islands I was heading for World’s 50 Best Restaurants Number 1 Mirazur in France but with a quick one night stop over in London so I got to pay another visit to one of my favourite spots in London, @maos.bms
I was interested to see how chef Eduardo @edoardopellicano had dealt with the restrictions put in place due to Covid as this was formerly a single communal table where the guests were encouraged to interact with each other and also where one could wander around into the kitchen and chat to the chefs, even eat courses in the kitchen, or into the wine room. Quite the opposite now applies of course with the room divided into several tables observing social distancing. In an effort to maintain that interaction with the kitchen they have built a small counter on one side of the room where Eduardo finishes a lot of the dishes over a Japanese style grill. So it’s a shame to lose what I felt, having visited several times, was a great concept in the communal table and the general vibe of being at someone’s house at a dinner party rather than at just another restaurant.
However, the food still stands out and it’s clear to me that Eduardo and his team are very much included in the group of kitchens and chefs that have been using their time during lockdown wisely and to great effect to develop and hone their menus. The result is a menu of 12 or so dishes that I will be rushing back for.
Highly recommended

- Neil A. Chef added a new meal Dinner at Áarstova at Áarstova
It may not look like much but this bisque made with local shellfish was mind blowing. Reminiscent of the amazing bisque at @restaurantwillemhiele , which I still rate as the best I’ve ever had.
Then followed by a lovely cheese plate and some local rhubarb with cream to round off a really great meal

The next stop on this month long trip was to fly from Copenhagen to the Faroe Islands. Of course I was there for another visit to ⭐️⭐️ Koks but first I went to try the famous Faroese lamb.
This was after quarantining myself in the hotel while awaiting the results of my latest Covid test. Everyone who arrives is tested at the airport and then given the all clear (or not) via text a few hours later. Where else better to try this lamb than at The Lamb House. Áarstova is in Tórshavn, where I was staying, and is a traditional grass roofed house on the cobbled main street. They do a short taster menu where you can try some of the local specialities along with a main course of slow cooked Faroese lamb shoulder. The service is friendly and there is a very homely vibe to the place. A very good start to my short stay on the islands. If you do go, then bring a friend as the leg of lamb is quite an undertaking as a single diner. I did not disgrace myself though and put a sizeable dent in it.

One of the highlights of my recent restaurant tour was another visit to the Faroe Islands and to ⭐️⭐️ restaurant Koks @koks_restaurant But one of the highlights of any of the travelling and eating that I’ve done was when chef Poul Andrias Ziska of Koks @poulandrias picked me up from my hotel and drove me to the spot where the local fishermen and harvesters of seafood drop off their catches and where the chefs at Koks drive by every morning to collect these treasures to take to the restaurant.
Before I knew it, I was standing on a short wooden pier surrounded by incredible scenery watching Poul pulling crates of live shellfish out of the water and selecting a couple of each specimen to enjoy with some shots of warming aquavit. I’ve been to hundreds of Michelin star restaurants in recent years and even the most intricate and luxurious three star meal doesn’t come close to standing in the cold drizzle watching Poul dispatching fresh shellfish with a simple pocket knife and handing over some of the best seafood in the world to pop into my mouth. Horse mussels, langoustine, Queen scallops, razor clams and mahogany clams decades old all washed down with aquavit and conversation. Unbeatable. And the following meal at Koks wasn’t bad either. Actually better than my previous visit I felt. There are exciting times ahead for Koks with new investment found they will hopefully be moving to a brand new premises in the coming years. From what Poul was saying, the plans are very ambitious indeed. Something to keep a close eye on.

The last stop of the Copenhagen leg of my restaurant tour before Christmas was a lovely (as always) lunch at @barrcph Barr with some old and new foodie friends and of course I had to drag @ericvildgaard and @ed_lee87 out to pick their brains some more about the incredible meal at Jordnær the night before. I love and already miss Copenhagen. One of my favourite food cities on the planet and can’t wait to go back in better times. See you all soon I hope @monaway @toennies

On a side note I was sorry to hear that chef Andreas will soon be moving on to new things. But also very excited to see where he lands as I’ll be banging on the door begging for a table.
