Ten days of gourmet experiences in the Nordic capital of gastronomy. From August 19 – 28 Copenhagen will be the city of temptations for all gastronomy lovers. Among the many gastronomy events around the city is “MAD FoodCamp” with the chef from the world’s best restaurant – Noma, Rene Redzepi.
The food festival is aptly named MAD Foodcamp as MAD means ‘food’ in Danish, and there’s more than a bit of craziness involved. At the MAD Foodcamp festival site at Refshaleøen in Copenhagen, visitors will get to meet chefs from all over the world, eat at the food stalls, talk to a number of Denmark’s most ambitious farmers, look at grazing livestock and buy fresh, high-quality produce.
The size of the fruit and vegetable market will be larger than anything seen in Northern Europe before and feature wild as well as cultivated crops from the seas, woods, fields and beaches of the Nordic region. Knowledge on subjects like soil quality, vegetation, hay and compost will be shared like never before. Workshops, food installations, demonstrations and food talks will abound – all organised by the enthusiasts, producers and experts behind some of the finest food experiences in our part of the world. Food lovers of all ages will enjoy themselves at the grassy field of the Refshaleøen by the Copenhagen Harbour on 27 and 28 August 2011.
