"A second Copenhagen outpost run by the same chef, cited alongside her other restaurant to illustrate her post-Noma ventures and to highlight the international extensions of cooks with Chicago origins." - Amy McCarthy
"Rosio Sanchez, chef-owner of Hija de Sanchez and Sanchez Cantina, based in Copenhagen." - ByKate Kassin
"Fueled by a desire to bring bring high-quality Mexican fare to Europe, Rosio Sanchez, a former Noma pastry chef, left the fine-dining world to launch Hija de Sanchez. Now the Torvehallerne wooden food stall, debecked with chalkboard menus and pepper plants, dishes out what’s been hailed as the best street food in Europe. Sanchez taps her heritage for the tacos here, blending ingredients like Oaxacan corn into the masa and tortillas while incorporating Nordic touches like gooseberry salsa. Although there are classics—al pastor, chicken mole negro—the Nordic interpretations are the real standouts." - Jenna Scatena
"David Chang travels to Copenhagen in the “tacos” episode to see how Rosio Sanchez is serving her own version of Mexican cuisine at this celebrated restaurant." - Manami Takashina
