16/09/2025: @lydieats 💕 A true three-star experience. From the beautifully executed dishes to the warmest professionalism, and the way they celebrate their Nordic roots—this meal is truly worth a special journey.
The summer universe opens with a clever nod to Danish tradition: a refreshing, pickled bite made of salted herring and schnapps 🙂↕️ My favorite came early—a silky sour milk pudding layered with kale and apple oils, topped with dashi crisps and trout & bleak roe. Every element had its moment, yet tasted so delicate together.
Next, a stunning dish of beetroot and cherry jelly “flowers” in a horseradish dashi sauce. Earthy, fruity, and sharp—a total visual and textural dream 🌸 Highly recommend adding the caviar supplement. It’s a generous serving of high-quality savory eggs paired with chewy waffles and beach nut cream.
For a green reset, zucchini ribbons with burnt goat cheese. The apple-cucumber sauce and fresh mint made it taste like summer in one perfect bite 🧚♀️ And then, what I’d consider their signature: a gorgeous swirl of kohlrabi and apple topped with hazelnut oil. Out of this world—crunchy, nutty, fresh, and rich all at once.
Geranium had the strongest start I’ve ever experienced. Their starting dishes were some of the most memorable dishes ever 💯 Each ingredient shined in its best form, with an attention to texture and shape that felt otherworldly. A true work of art.
The warm courses opened with a sourdough donut baked in oil and filled with truffle mayo—decadent and quite oily. From there, things grew richer: scallops in brown butter balanced with blackcurrant leaves. This was almost too rich, tasted quite flat. The stuffed turbot was interesting in texture (kinda like oden) but just too salty. The side peas were the standout.
The main was a beautiful “today’s harvest” dish with a variety of onions and greens 🌱It was a wonderfully bright ending but came with some unwanted critters. They prepared another plate - still had the extra protein but impressed by the exact replica they created. Probs would have missed it if we dined at a darker time 👀
Desserts leaned bright and thoughtful: seabuckthorn panna cotta, two takes on plum one ethereal with fig leaf granita & the other a dense tart with currants. Finale was a light punch of licorice cream with raspberry jam and some gorgeous crackers. Some misses in the ending but overall a once in a lifetime meal! Ask for a picture with the chefs and they’ll clap for you 😂

Every dish we tasted was a discovery – as stunning to look at as it was delicious, with surprising flavors that really stood out. A memorable experience I would recommend without hesitation!
