In 2011 restaurant Geist open at Kongens Nytorv. The Michelin chef Bo Bech is the driver
behind the restaurant and he was previously head chef the famous Michelin-starred restaurant Paustian.
The restaurant is tastefully decorated in dark colors, and a little hard music running in the
background perfectly suited to the place.
At restaurant Geist is it possible to sit both in the bar and at one of the many tables.
To get under the skin of the place we chose to sit at the bar where we could keep up with
everything that was going on in the kitchen.
When I visited the place in 2011, I ordered several dishes such as Brussels sprouts and scallops. The Brussels sprouts leaves were crisp and delicious, and had a light touch of sweet and savory. The scallops were cooked perfectly.
A cocoa sorbet which was perfect in texture, silky and no ice crystals also tasted the fantastic. The chocolate was a bit different than what I just used to, it was not as airy.
My own experiences: Restaurant Geist is an exclusive restaurant serving gourmet food at very high quality. It is restaurant that I highly recommend.
In Danish: I 2011 åbnede Restaurant Geist ved Kongens Nytorv. I spidsen står Michelin-kokken Bo Bech, som tidligere har drevet den kendte Michelin-restaurant Paustian.
Restauranten er smagefuldt indrettet i mørke farver, og lidt hårdt musik som kører i
baggrunden passer perfekt til stedet.
Hos restaurant Geist er det muligt, at sidde både i baren og ved et af de mange borde.
For, at komme under huden på stedet valgte vi at sidde i baren, hvor vi kunne følge med i alt hvad der foregik i køkkenet.
Da jeg besøgte stedet i 2011, fik jeg bl.a. serveret rosenkål og kammusling. Disse rosenkålsblade var sprøde og delikate, og havde en let strejf af salt og sødt. Kammuslingen var stegt
perfekt.
En kakaosorbet som var perfekt i konsistensen, silkeblød og ingen iskrystaller også smagte den fantastisk. Chokolademoussen var en smule anderledes end, hvad jeg er lige vant til, den var ikke så luftig.
Mine egne erfaringer: Restaurant Geist er en eksklusiv restaurant der laver gourmetmad af meget høj kvalitet. En restaurant som jeg varmt kan anbefale.
