THE SCOOP
The team behind Kødbyens Fiskebar is expanding its universe across Flæsketorvet. Opening in September, Overfor Tyren pairs interiors created with Henrik Vibskov with an all-day menu that covers morning coffee and breakfast to lunch, wine, dinner, and music after dark. Fiskebar chef Zhi Xiang Weng draws freely from Nordic, French, Spanish, and Chinese cooking, while one of Northern Europe’s largest low-intervention wine collections sits alongside quality wines poured straight from the tap.
Smørrebrød for lunch, French-leaning bistro cooking for dinner. Henry is the next address from Magny duo Jonas Mikkelsen and Rasmus Mørch, opening in late October with 70 seats at Tordenskjoldsgade 19. Mikkelsen spent 16 years at Frederiksminde, earning the restaurant a Michelin star along the way. Here, that experience goes into Danish lunch staples like fried herring and butter-fried plaice before the kitchen switches to a seasonal evening menu, ordered à la carte or in four courses. A short list of ingredients on each plate puts the sourcing under scrutiny, with animal welfare and responsible fishing central to the kitchen’s choices.
After four years leading the kitchen at Atelier September and several more sharpening his craft around the world, Bernardo Costantino is finally getting a place of his own. Created with his partner, interior designer Tilde Emborg Fossum, TAMBO is a “most likely all-day” concept arriving in the coming months. Its name—Quechua for a place that hosts travellers—pays homage to a beloved restaurant from Costantino’s Caracas childhood. Much is being deliberately left to take shape, but the foundations are set: a communal kitchen table, Danish produce refracted through Costantino’s playful imagination, and a fire oven certain to shape the evolving menu.
Beshket means “trouble” in Ukrainian, and Maryna Korsun is preparing to bring some to Copenhagen. After leading kitchens in Kyiv and traveling across Ukraine in search of regional recipes and produce, the chef and food stylist will serve modern Ukrainian comfort food that looks far beyond clichés. The address and opening date remain under wraps.
