4) White kimchi

Apples with summer herbs and elderflower oil. If you look at the base of the bowl, you can see a separate and distinct piece underneath. This fragment comes from China, dating back between the 14th and 16th century, when Korea was under Sino rule. The Seoul-based ceramicist who made the bowl repurposed these broken and historic pieces of pottery, giving them new life as well as tying the past to the present 🇨🇳 🇰🇷

(SWIPE FOR MORE PICS) My last two meals at 108 in 2019 before covid confirmed to me that @kristianbaumann and his team made some of my favorite food in Europe. I came into @koancph with high expectation in Oct 2021 and they did not just match, they blew my mind. The members of the core team did not change much but the cuisine reached new maturity.

The precision and balance of flavors is a proof of their continual refinement to perfect the dishes. The harmony and sensibility of the dishes demonstrated the understanding of Korean / Asian flavors, elements and philosophy by Kristian and his team.

After almost 2 months from my trip, after visiting 115 restaurants, I asked myself, which are the meals that I still remember fondly and savor the most. Which meal brought me to a journey of the chef’s history without the need to explain it? Which meal told me about the stories of the kitchen with the food as the narratives? Which meal had deeper thought and context beyond the dishes we ate? Which meal that expressed the passion, the care and thoughtfulness of the team?

This meal, at Koan, is one of them.

I wholeheartedly love this restaurant and Kristian’s creations, and will not have a second thought to recommend it to all my friends ❤️

BLACK BEANS
hazelnuts and GastroUnika Osceitra selection @[instagram] Koan, Copenhagen (Oct 2021)

We had donut and caviar in our savory courses and we ended with donut and caviar together 😄. This mini donut was filled with black bean miso and hazelnut butter finished with @gastrounika Osceitra caviar on top. Kristian knows caviar well and his caviar on kombu ice cream with hazelnut oil remains to be one of my favorite desserts of all time. This is a continuation of his caviar dessert series and he nailed on it.

Knowing when to use caviar is parallel to knowing when adding salt is already enough. There are many desserts these days that have caviar but many show how caviars are misused instead of being a genius touch (eg caviar in pure vanilla ice cream 🙅‍♀️). When you eat this donut you will understand why salt would not be enough and caviar is the icing on the cake
