experience

“This time we go to the Burj Khalifa, into a one star restaurant: Armani Ristorante. This is the highest building on planet earth, and it has a lot of restaurants.”

restaurant

“Next up is a heavy-hitter, a name I’m sure everyone heard about. Heston Blumenthal and the Dinner By Heston in the Royal Atlantis. ... It is beautiful, magical, so Heston!”

hotel

“This is the most iconic building here, and one of the most famous hotels The Burj Al Arab. I step into the lobby I take a look up and wow, it’s breathtaking”

restaurant

“Al Muntaha is 200 meters high. ... This is a good restaurant, which is definitely worth a visit. And if you want to flex on Instagram: just take a look at that scenery.”

hotel

“Dinner By Heston in the Royal Atlantis. This is my go-to hotel in Dubai. So I’ve been to this restaurant more times than I could count. A lot of money was poured into this place, and it shows. It is beautiful, magical, so Heston!”

“It’s FZN by Björn Frantzén in Atlantis, the Palm. If this is a movie, it has all the signs of a blockbuster. This restaurant is brand new. And tonight is the premiere. Stepping off the elevator, we see a familiar face, that’s been on this channel before.”

“And it’s not the only Frantzén property that opened recently in Dubai. Just a week ago, Studio Frantzén opened, right next door to FZN. It has a totally different vibe.”

restaurant

“In my opinion, this is the place that perfectly reflects the meaning of 3 Michelin stars. The kitchen is all about Thai cuisine, transforming it to modern, elegant dishes. Yet, it doesn’t sacrifice a bit of that Thai DNA in the sake of that. It’s not only a gastronomic experience, it’s a whole journey through Thai culture. Exceptional flavors, fantastic dishes, and warm, unforgettable hospitality.”

restaurant

“I’ve been to Cote in Bangkok... I have to admit, Cote... were bolder and more exciting than the experience I had at Mirazur in 2023.”

restaurant

“This experience just blew me away. The Japanese master says: Absolute simplicity is the key. Both in life and cooking. The ingredient is king. He adds just enough to make it shine; So you’ll see and taste the ingredients in their best form. The service was simply extraordinary. I call it “invisible service”, because if you don’t directly watch it, you just don’t see it. This whole experience is something I’ll remember forever.”

restaurant

“If you’ve seen our reviews of Zén and Frantzén, you recognize this next one. It’s the signature canape that takes 48 hours to make.”

restaurant

“In 2015, at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, where they both honed their skills. Working at a place like that must have huge impacts. Learning the importance of details, soaking up a lot of creativity and inspiration.”

restaurant

“Follow me to Fallow. If you’re a foodie, or even if you just doom-scroll instagram often; Then you probably heard of Fallow already. It’s sitting at almost 7 million views. Since then, I’ve been back several times, and I’ve gotten familiar with Jack and Will. By now, I think I finally see what’s behind their secret, and why I’m so jealous. And today, I’m here to show you.”

“He is also the big brother of Chef Eric Vildgaard. Who we met in our review of Jordnaer in Copenhagen.”

“Aside from running his own Michelin star restaurant, Torsten spent 12 years at Noma, and helped them win the title of World’s Best Restaurant in 2021.”

restaurant

“It wasn’t chosen as the best restaurant in the world for no reason. And it’s unbelievable that they still can evolve. They didn’t just sit back and enjoy the success, they progressed and pushed further. The whole Mauro empire is constantly growing and evolving. For me, Mirazur still stands at the top; But no matter which of his restaurants you visit, it will be a fantastic experience.”

restaurant

“This is an absolutely unique restaurant. Both in concept and flavors. If there’s a true zero kilometer restaurant, this is it. The place is beautiful, the scenery is breathtaking; and the work they put into the kitchen, the experiments and the discovery of the ancient traditions is just simply amazing. They don’t take the easy way, that’s for sure. This is hard work, finding new or long lost ingredients; and preparing them on the level of quality they do. It requires true passion and extensive knowledge. Well, Virgilio and the team at MIL definitely have those. For food pilgrims, this is a ‘must-have’.”

restaurant

“If you’re a wine lover, believe me, this is heaven. A whole sommelier team helps you to find the right drinks. And the head sommelier, Kristoffer Aga is one of the best I’ve ever met. The restaurant is run by a beautiful couple, with incredible passion and expertise. Very complex dishes, gorgeous flavors, and overall a fantastic experience. This is one of those places I’d go back anytime.”

restaurant

“Next on the list is probably the most glamorous one: It’s an eternal pillar of elegance and classical French dining. With one of the best services, i have ever experienced. This is a place where they really make you feel important, like a king. Since my last visit, the kitchen has really tuned up the game. The traditional French elements are still there; But I see exciting new directions. It’s fresh, elegant, and very-very delicious.”

restaurant

“The way they cook here is super close to me. Authentic, traditional French cuisine with bold flavors you don’t come across very often. I could tell you everything I ate here even now, months and years later, with my eyes closed. I’m simply in love with this place. Beautiful surroundings, terrace, mindblowing champagnes by the glass; I’ve been here before like a dozen times, and I’ll go back, that’s for sure. As many times as I can.”

restaurant

“What you experience here is real magic. Mindblowing dishes, exciting flavors, crazy ideas. Chef Dabiz Munoz is famously insane anyway; But as soon as you sit down and taste the first bite; You'll realize it’s the biggest compliment ever. DiverXO is definitely one of my best dining experiences ever. Playful creativity, extremely sharp dishes. Although chef Dabiz isn’t a teenage punk anymore; That fire is still burning in his cuisine. The service is one of the best in the world. The staff is simply amazing, kind, cheerful, and precise. Last but not least, this is where I had the best wine pairing of my life.”

restaurant

“But Chef Max and Chef Marco did it, and to be honest, this place shines brighter than before. Bold flavors, beautiful dishes and a great wine pairing. In my opinion, a chef’s table experience is always special. Right now, in New York, and maybe in the whole US, this is my favorite one.”

restaurant

“I’m hosting my first Champagne Dinner in my Michelin-starred restaurant. And besides Krug, there will be other iconic bottles from the best vintages. The seats are limited. Sixteen guests. Beautiful bottles. A Michelin star menu, On the 19th of November, in 42.”

“Today, I’m taking you to Portugal’s most famous restaurant. A place many consider the holy ground of Portuguese fine dining. This is Belcanto.”

“We are here at Locavore NXT. Their tasting menu is called Nature’s Flux. All of the ingredients come from the island, and they have a lot to choose from. Indonesia is one of the most biodiverse countries on earth. This was unbelievably good. I can still feel that peppery sensation on my tongue, I loved it so much. The atmosphere is fantastic, and I really like every part of this interior. It’s great to be here.”

restaurant

“It’s the country’s only 3-Michelin star restaurant. A distinction they have had for 20 years. Join me as I take you inside one of the most interesting places we’ve seen yet. A 3 Michelin star restaurant Inside a former women’s prison. This is De Librije.”

restaurant

“Barcelona’s elite 3 Michelin star restaurant run by twin chefs, Javier and Sergio Torres. They took the Spanish culinary landscape by storm.”
