Top choice in Southern Zealand

Orchids, white roses, starched tablecloths, abstract art and picture windows set the visual canvas for a full-on gastronomic experience, a showcase of New Nordic cuisine with classic French undercurrents. Bookings are highly advised. Wednesdays and Thursdays out of season you might find more affordable two-course dinners available (without/with wine 295/325kr).

The restaurant is near the TV studios, northeast of the centre via Københavnsvej, with what would be a great view if someone would get around to cropping the young trees in front.
