SINGAPORE - Denmark's famous Noma restaurant will be moving to Tokyo, Japan for two months in 2015.
Danish celebrity chef Rene Redzepi said in a post on their website that his entire staff will be relocating to Japan.
He was scant on details, but mentioned that he was invited by chef Murata of the acclaimed Kikunoi to Japan five years ago and was " awestruck by the richness of Japanese food culture".
He said that instead of using Danish ingredients, they will be using the "best of pristine winter produce from all over Japan".
"The whole staff is exhilarated, like myself, by this opportunity and we believe that the wealth of knowledge from the journey will enrich our own restaurant and cooking when we return to Copenhagen," said Chef Redzepi.
More details will be available in June, promised the chef in the post on the website.
