Jordnær – Copenhagen's Newest Two Michelin-Starred Restaurant
1 Video View·Apr 15, 2026
Unlike the New Nordic restaurants in central Copenhagen who serve their tasting menus in very relaxed settings, Chef Eric Vildgaard‘s two Michelin-starred restaurant Jordnær is the picture of elegance. Located just 20 minutes outside of the city in the suburbs of Gentofte, Vildgaard has transformed the ground floor of an old inn from the 17th century into a modern setting for Nordic fine dining, complete white tablecloths and a classical wine list. The tasting menu changes seasonally, but you can expect to see a focus on Scandinavian seafood accompanied by creamy sauces, often topped with a healthy amount of luxury ingredients like caviar and truffles.

The first one we have is Jacques Lassagne,
Blanc de Blanc, very crisp, mineral and beautiful acidity.
The following one is Chardonnay, it's a rosé champagne.
He also is a biodynamic champagne maker,
small growers as well, very respected in the environment.
Which we slice very thinly and salt,
and then put on top of a spiced oil made from typhus and coriander,
with a little hint of finger lime underneath also,
topped with macadamia nuts,
and then all the way on top I put a little bit of snow,
made from Nashi pear and yuzu.
