Two time Best Restaurant in the World winner (by Restaurant magazine), Noma needs little introduction. Its name is a contraction of nordisk mad (simply meaning Nordic food), which neatly explains what the place is all about: bringing authenticity back to Nordic cuisine and infusing it with newfound homegrown innovation. Meat, fish and vegetables come from the far corners of the region, while all pickling, salting, smoking and other delicious Nordities are done onsite. For the full splurge, opt for the Noma Nassaaq (Greenlandic for "voyage of discovery"), a 12-Norse-course tasting menu that requires at least four hours.
