In this video, I will tell the story of how a former gang member became a 3-Michelin-star chef. His name is Eric Vildgaard. Today, Chef Eric and his wife are the heart and soul of Denmark’s newest 3-Michelin star restaurant, and living proof that it’s never too late to turn things around.
We travel north of Copenhagen to meet the couple and sample the cuisine at Jordnaer.

My name is Alexander. I’m the co-owner of a ONE Michelin star restaurant, and I’m on a mission – to find inspiration in gastronomy. I love fine dining, good wine and sharing what I know with other people.

  1. Whats your opinion on wines being more consistent because of technology?

    Arent you worried that more consistent wine-making and more similar product from year to year, is gonna make it less interesting?

  2. it always dissapoints me how you can pay upwards of a thousand dollars. and the most substantial meal you get is still a fucking teaspoon sized slice of fish

  3. I like the little cutaways where you inform us! Thought they were a bit too many and too long this time though. Great video as always!

  4. As I Dane I must say Danish food is normally basic on quit a farmer level. As such eccentric foods such as Norma and Jordnaer means little to me as it is a farmers attempt to play in a league Danish seldom can reach. No matter how small and exocentric the dishes may be. If you want fantastic foods go to France, Switzerland, Italy or even Spain. No offense.

  5. If you would have the choice to choose the best dishes from all restaurants – how would your menu look like?

  6. I really loved the beautiful food and aesthetically pleasing platings so very much. And I appreciate your review, but I must say I do wish that you would make less references to the chef’s appearance, although I understand your point. However, it does make you sound a bit shallow, and by the third or fourth time that you make reference to how he looks, it starts to sound unkind.

  7. The restaurant is in my local area.
    It's been there for 7 years and has slowly been building itself to a better and better standard.
    They've had to replace the Michelin Star sign outside a few times 🙂
