Noma, the world-renowned restaurant based in Copenhagen, Denmark, is set to host a pop-up in Kyoto, Japan in 2023. The restaurant, which has been named the World’s Best Restaurant five times by Restaurant magazine (in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, and 2021), is known for its innovative and boundary-pushing cuisine. The pop-up will take place at the Ace Hotel in Kyoto and will run for several months. René Redzepi, the executive chef and co-owner of Noma, one of the world’s most renowned restaurants, has been teasing his followers on Instagram with glimpses of the dishes that he and his team are testing for their upcoming pop-up.

A Glimpse into Noma Kyoto’s Test Kitchen

Some of the dishes that he has described include slowly barbecued lotus root sauteed in truffle garum, demon shrimp, cuttlefish farfalle, goma dofu, and dried strawberries stuffed with mochi. Other potential dishes that have been teased include wakame root stalk, clams flambéed in sake, wild boar, Kyoto carrot, and cherry tree sap cooked tender in dashi broth. For seafood lovers, there’s penshell clam, kinmedai (described by Redzepi as the fattiest fish ever), a potential swordfish belly serving, and, according to Rezepi, the sweetest, most tender shrimp ever served with peas. The team is also experimenting with soba noodle 3.0, which looks like seaweed, and sheets of cherry blossom inspired by nori seaweed.

Noma is bringing 103 employees to Kyoto to help create this unique dining experience. With a menu that is both inventive and rooted in Japanese culinary traditions, Noma’s pop-up in Kyoto promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to savor the flavors of Japan and Noma’s renowned approach to cooking.

Noma’s Previous Pop-Ups

This won’t be the first time that Noma has taken its show on the road. Over the years, the restaurant has gained a reputation for its pop-ups, which have taken place in cities around the world. In 2015, Noma staged a pop-up in Tokyo, which was so popular that tickets sold out within seconds. The following year, the restaurant traveled to Sydney for another pop-up, where they created a menu featuring Australian ingredients like finger limes and abalone. In 2017, Noma opened a pop-up in Tulum, Mexico, which was inspired by the flavors of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Each pop-up has been unique, with a menu that reflects the flavors and ingredients of the local region. Noma’s pop-up in Kyoto is sure to be just as highly anticipated, offering a chance for guests to experience the restaurant’s innovative cuisine in one of Japan’s most historic and picturesque cities.
