Noma Returns as a »regular« Restaurant in Copenhagen. Søren Frank spoke with René Redzepi, who for the first time since the media storm erupted in March addresses allegations of abusive behavior and a toxic work environment.
René Redzepi Speaks Out After Abuse Allegations – and Reveals New Plans for Noma: »I Know I Was an Idiot«
When the Michelin stars for the Nordic region were awarded last week, Noma received none. The reason was simple: Noma had announced to the Michelin Guide – and to the world – that its restaurant on Refshalevej had closed.
When René Redzepi and his approximately 100 employees return to Denmark after Noma’s pop-up in Los Angeles concludes on June 26, the plan had been for Noma to enter a new phase. Both the facilities on Refshalevej and the roughly 100 staff members were supposed to transition into Noma 3.0, a food innovation institute dedicated to research and development.
