Live Update: New Restaurants in the MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries - June 2022 Part 1

Hot off the press, the MICHELIN Guide Inspectors reveal some of their favourite additions to this year’s Nordic Countries Guide. In this article we focus on Denmark...

The annual MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries Star Revelation is set to take place on Monday 4th July at 6pm (CET). It is then that we will find out which restaurants have been awarded Michelin Stars, Bib Gourmands and Michelin Green Stars for 2022.

Before then we have our final set of live additions, covered over two articles this month – the first of which comes from Denmark. The second article focuses on Finland, as well as containing further updates for Norway and Sweden. The guide also covers Iceland.

You'll find the newly recommended restaurants listed on both the Michelin Guide website and iOS and Android apps: they’re easy to spot, as they’re highlighted by a ‘New’ symbol.

Two experienced chefs run this homely little restaurant, incongruously located in the industrial district. Organic pork, lamb and vegetables come from their nearby farm, Anneksgården, and dishes are a mix of the refined and the rustic.

Its name means ‘Bear’s Basement’ and there are stuffed bears, pictures of bears and bears in stained glass at this rustic, characterful restaurant with its cosy nooks and friendly service. Carefully prepared lunchtime smørrebrød makes way for more substantial dishes in the evening.

The ‘connection’ is that between the restaurant and the guest, which makes for an intimate, memorable dining experience, starting with a warm welcome from the eponymous chef-owner. The restaurant grows much of its own produce and dishes are assured, well-balanced and full of flavour.
