27/04/2025: Many Michelin star restaurants offer a prix fixe menu where you may be less than thrilled on some of the dishes you will get, but Formel B offers you to select any five dishes from the menu which contains appetizers, entrees, desserts and you can select any combination. I chose one appetizer, two entrees, and two desserts while my husband had three entrees and one dessert. The entrees and desserts seemed equally sized.
We both enjoyed the salted hiramase which is a creamy clean fish that came out elegantly presented in a rose shape.
I got the roasted langoustine with pickled pumpkin, orange, and vadouvan followed by the Danish beef tartar with kale, pickled red currant, crispy sourdough and olive sauce.
The desserts were the Blood orange with pistachio and sour cream with timut pepper and the Sea buckthorn au surprise (signature dessert that looks like a hedgehog in meringue). I highly recommend both desserts. My husband got the cheese and rye bread dessert, so we got to try all the desserts.
We thoroughly enjoyed all our dishes and the
service from Frida and Mikkel which was perfectly timed, never rushed or waiting too long between courses and explanations were clear and at a good volume. We had one of the first tables under the window that was slightly below street level and fortunately it was not crowded or noisy. We had a wonderful, relaxing evening.
After Mikkel refilled our second bottle of water after dessert, Frida let us know we had to ask for the check when we wanted it and we were welcome to stay as long as we wanted since we had the table for the night. We then had a nice discussion on Danish vs American health care, education, and safety at night.
We had an incredible culinary journey with excellent service from Frida and Mikkel and would definitely return when we are in Copenhagen.
30/03/2025: The concept is simple enough but very effective. They have 12 dishes and the menu is 5 dishes to chose from those 12. Since we were 2, they suggested to order 10 different ones (or the 12 and pay 2 as extra) . We ordered 10 different ones and shared. Since they do that often, they pair them so both clients have always a dish. I would recommend in that case they say which one to eat first if the clients are sharing. We found out some combinations of starting with one vs the other were much better. Otherwise, everything was super tasteful, well prepared and very different. At the end we were very satisfied which is also an important aspect. The place is cosy and the employees were very friendly and attentive.
