Hotel du Vest Odsherred

28/07/2025: Visited in July 2025. We had the "lyst og trygt" 10 course lunch menu and the psykel pairing, which included 1 glass of wine and 3 of kombucha. The food was good, beautifully presented, and it felt like every dish told a story. You could almost feel Claus Henriksen's enthusiasm and passion for food in every course, from the food to the ceramics used for serving, which he makes himself. It was great to see him around the dining room a lot and I am sorry that I did not get to say "tak for mad" before heading home. With menus with many courses, usually some courses shine and some are less interesting. In the menu we had here, the food was reliable - tasty, excellently cooked, an amazing show of skill. However, while Mota served me the best onion I've ever eaten, it was still an onion, so I can't go as far as to say that this was the best food I've ever had. The venue itself is beautiful - I loved all the wooden elements and the ceramics. The kombucha was excellent, interesting, and complemented the food nicely. Finally, service was good, professional and timely. I can definitely see why Mota has a Michelin star - it is an experience worth a (short) trip to a beautiful area. I'd be happy to come back and see what Claus comes up with in a different season.

24/07/2025: The most amazing food experience ever. The whole setup was amazing. Hope this is not the last time I go there
