For this Nordic culinary trip in early summer, we drove from Copenhagen to the Österlen area in the south of Sweden, which took about two hours. The journey didn’t feel particularly long due to stops at various scenic spots along the way.

The most influential restaurant of this generation, noma, has been named the best restaurant in the world five times, changing the global perception of Nordic cuisine. Since its opening in 2003, after more than 20 years, it announced it would cease public operations at its peak and transition to a new model, which is regrettable. As the seafood season approaches, I have been looking forward to this for a long time.

Entering through a two-ton bronze door leading to a mysterious world, created by Danish artist Maria Rubinke and named "I Found Myself Within a Forest Dark," we were greeted by enthusiastic staff.
