The Samuel
Copenhagen, Denmark
1 Star
The Experience
From Michelin Guide
An extensive renovation has given a pristine shine to this over 100-year-old restaurant inside a red-brick villa. A ring-shaped, marble-topped bar sits in front of a gleaming open kitchen, where the chefs craft boldly flavoured dishes from superb produce – such as Jutland beef tenderloin glazed in cognac, truffle and green Madagascan peppercorns. There’s a sense of classic luxury throughout, typified by the collection of prestige champagnes housed inside an impressive wine cellar.

Chef's Background: Jonathan Berntsen, the chef and sommelier, has experience with Michelin stars from his previous restaurant Clou. 3. Locally Sourced Ingredients with Global Flair: The restaurant sources most ingredients locally in Denmark but also imports items like lemons from the Amalfi Coast for their superior taste.
