The famed Copenhagen restaurant reprises its residency last spring with a brand new autumn menu from October to December
There is just one more opportunity to have a taste of a restaurant that, at several points in time, was considered the best restaurant in the world. Chef and co-owner René Redzepi will return to the Ace Hotel Kyoto for a residency from October 8 to December 18, where he will present an autumn menu with hyper-seasonal ingredients. It is a reprise of its previous residency at the same hotel in 2023, and will be one of the final chances to experience Noma in its current form (known as Noma 2.0) before it closes in 2025.

The three-Michelin-starred restaurant in the Danish capital is widely known as a leader in New Nordic cuisine, and made a name for itself with its hyperlocal foraging, fresh ingredients, and novel culinary technique. Yet, at the height of its fame, Redzepi shocked the food world by announcing that the restaurant would close by the year’s end, declaring that running a fine dining restaurant was “unsustainable”. That was at the start of 2023, and since then gourmands across the world have been looking for rare opportunities to taste its brand of gastronomy before it disappears. Many got a taste in 2023, when Noma appeared at the Ace Hotel Kyoto for a sold-out spring residency; now, they will get one final chance to enjoy Redzepi’s food before his spring 2025 menu spells a coda for his Copenhagen restaurant.
