This might be the world’s best Korean restaurant and it’s not in Korea 🇰🇷⭐️⭐️

At 2-Michelin-starred @koancph in Copenhagen, Chef @kristianbaumann tells his story: Korean heritage, Danish roots, trained at Noma and Relæ. The result is a seamless blend of Korean flavors and Nordic ingredients that feels deeply personal.

White kimchi with Danish cabbage. Oolong tea soufflé with seaweed ice cream and caviar. But the revelation: rice cooked in a traditional Korean cast-iron Gamasot, served with Danish fjord shrimp. It felt like a window into Baumann’s soul, the best rice dish of my life.

Unlike many of Copenhagen’s fine dining restaurants, Koan has its own identity. Not a copy and a story still being written.

Send this to someone you’d like to go with and let me know in the comments where I should chase stars next.
