Bucket list Restaurants worldwide

What are the bucket list restaurants that you wish to tick off. Maybe an AFF member can take one for the team on their travels and report their experience

Geranium, Copenhagen DK

3 Michelin

As soon as I got the SQ redemptions, I tried to get in but to no avail. All the waitlistings came to nothing

Recommended by a Sydney Chef friend. In his POV probably the best in Europe.

So if anyone is heading to CPH can you please try and get in.

We have already been to Geranium pre Covid. Definitely worth it. An Australian was a sous chef and had a chat with us, will try and locate the report.
As far as bucket list restaurants go we love Le Bernadin in New York. Have been 9 times and have Eric Ripert's book signed by him. He was a great friend of Anthony Bourdain.

Anthony Bourdain and Eric Ripert had a unique friendship that blossomed out of a love for all things food, travel, and culture.

One I have visited 25 years ago, and would like to go again, is the Jules Verne Restaurant.

It is halfway up the Eiffel Tower.

My memory was spectacular food, spectacular view.

We have already been to Geranium

Our biggies so far have been Noma and Le Bernardin.

Might think of more as we consider travel after the Teen is an adult/not always accompanying us on holidays! Or where we feel safe for the Teen to stay in the room without us.

L'Enclume and Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons - recommend staying at their hotels for the full experience.

L'Enclume is doing a 6 week residency at Bathers Pavilion, Balmoral Beach, Mosman this July / August - something to look forward to.

As this thread has come up I thought I would update. I took my wife in 2024. She was horrified at the cost before we arrived. Afterwards she said it was well worth it for the experience

Ive been intrigued about Alchemist in Denmark

ALCHEMIST

At Restaurant Alchemist, gastronomy, drama, art, and spectacular visuals blend to create a holistic dining experience.

Don't know if it's worth the price.

With this thread reappearing I thought I should give my Australian bucket list restaurants. Starting with the Tasmanian restaurant where we celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Van Bone at Marion Bay. It was a magnificent lunch with several vegetable dishes where the main ingredient came from the restaurants garden. We just loved this. I was going to provide a link but found that it had closed early this year.

However the owners picked who they would sell to. The new owners are both experienced chefs and it already is getting good reviews. And the restaurant is already getting good reviews.

Mrsdrron heard about this restaurant in the April edition of the Qantas magazine.So she tried to book when she would be down for June and july.They were already booked out for 3 months.
They open bookings 3months out and fortunately to book the first week in November for our wedding anniversary we were both at home and in lockdown. Then looked for somewhere to Stay and chose Stewart Bay lodge at Port Arthur.
