Spanish chef Paco Morales of the highly acclaimed Noor restaurant in Cordoba will be opening a pop-up restaurant at the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen between 2 July and 28 July.
Paco has been riding the crest of the wave over the past few years after opening his restaurant Noor or Light as it is translated into English. Constraining himself to exploring his city’s glorious past by limiting the scope of space and time he will be taking his ‘gastro-archeology’ to Denmark mixing dishes from his world-famous restaurant Noor with more down-to-earth versions and playful tapas from his second restaurant in Cordoba el Bar.
For this pop-up, Paco will prepare a unique menu which will contain both Andalusian and Danish ingredients as well as more classic gourmet ingredients like caviar, lobster, tuna and marrow.
“I have managed to put Cordoba on the gastronomic world map. Now it is my ambition to bring the beauty and ideas from my vision further out into the world. Tivoli is the perfect platform to reach out to international foodies and enthusiasts of great food. I have been told that the Japanese tower has 2,800 bright spots but I hope that our project will make it shine even brighter,” the Spanish chef who Ferran Adria called ‘one of the most exciting chefs in the world’ said.
Tivoli Gardens was founded in 1843 and has become a Danish treasure and an international attraction. Fairtale writer Hans Christian Andersen visited many times as did Walt Disney who found inspiration to his own Disney World there.
When the garden was founded it was placed outside the city’s moats but today it is located right next to the central station and within walking distance to the city hall.
Part of charm of Tivoli Gardens is that it is appreciated by everyone. The scenery is beautiful with exotic architecture, historic buildings and lust gardens. At night, thousands of coloured lights create a fairytale atmosphere that is completely unique. With all its splendid features and fun rides, Tivoli Gardens also serves as an artistic melting pot of theatre, ballet, musicals, fire works, big band sessions and grand concerts.
