Video: Aska New Nordic in New York

We can’t stay away from Scandinavian cooking, even when we’re in the U.S.! Swedish chef Fredrik Berselius’ tasting menu showcases innovative twists on Nordic classics, such as langoustine with violets, potato pancake with pommes soufflé and a roe emulsion, and their signature mushroom fudge-filled “æbleskiver” with woodruff syrup. There’s so much “hygge” at this cozy Brooklyn restaurant, as well as a focus on sustainability and great natural wines. Aska has had two Michelin stars since 2016.

Note: This video was filmed in 2019, before the pandemic.
