Noma in Kyoto, Japan...
Welcome to a world where food becomes art, and dining transcends mere sustenance. Our article in Gastro about Noma's 10 weeks pop-up restaurant in Kyoto.
Join me and my wife, Mette, a gifted chef in her own right, as we embarked on a three-day immersion in the heart of Kyoto alongside the extraordinary team at Noma. From behind-the-scenes kitchen experiences to foraging adventures with Fukunaga, lobster hunts with Hirokazu at Nishiki fish market, and serene moments of meditation in a nearby temple, our journey was nothing short of enchanting. And, of course, we savored the pinnacle of our experience as honored guests, relishing an unforgettable meal.
In those three days, we uncovered the essence of omotenashi, reveled in the delights of cloudy sake, and delighted in the nuances of a kinki serving, among countless other joys.
Our voyage spanned 20,000 kilometers, described in 6,000 words, and captured in thousands of images, 50 of which found their way into the pages of Gastro. Now, with a glimpse into our adventure, let your anticipation grow and appetite flourish. Welcome to the journey of a lifetime.
