Bistro Lupa

In Copenhagen, Fine Dining Goes Vegan at Ark - AFAR

"A casual offshoot opened in the former space of the chef’s earlier restaurant during the pandemic, this menu-focused bistro highlights mushrooms as a star ingredient and celebrates bold, umami-rich preparations. Notable dishes sampled include a Southern-style fried coral-tooth mushroom glazed with smoked chile and a complex spice blend, and a “Corn on the Cob” riff coated in truffle aioli and crushed popcorn with tarragon and Espelette pepper for balanced heat. The restaurant earned rare top marks from critics (a six-heart rating in 2022 from a leading Danish paper) and reflects the collection’s sustainability ethos and foraging-driven flavor profile." - Kristin Vuković
