A truly one-a-kind-dining experience for the bucket list, Alchemist is the brainchild of enigmatic chef Rasmus Munk. The adventure begins outside two enormous bronze doors in Copenhagen’s famous former shipyard. Opening like the curtains on a stage, the doors swing open to welcome you to 50 courses of truly extraordinary craftsmanship, mind-boggling ingredients and a veritable culinary education. Rather than courses, the experience is divided into ‘Acts’, during which diners are served in different locations in the four storey building: perhaps surrounded by holographic views of the galaxy or under the canopy of the ‘magical forest’. Prepare to be educated as well as entertained. Munk’s dishes are designed to encourage guests to dig deeper and have frank conversations. A piece of cod with edible ‘plastic’ signifies the on-going problems with ocean pollution, or ‘frozen air’ made with lemon balm and woodruff, which is inspired by the human emotion of greed.
