Denmark has a number of very good smørrebrød restaurants, but none beats Schønnemann.
This restaurant celebrates the old traditions, from the quaint decor to the friendly and personal service to, of course, the smørrebrød which is luxurious, rich, and abundant. With 87 different pieces to choose from, Schønnemann has by far the largest selection and hereby pays homage to one of the cornerstones in Danish smørrebrød culture: a rich variety. It goes without saying that a large selection in itself has no merit, but when it is paired with impeccable quality, as it is here at Schønnemann, it is a real achievement.
The New Nordic Cuisine never had any influence in this kitchen, but during the years when Noma garnered its world fame, Schønnemann also grew into the first classic smørrebrød res-taurant to raise the quality bar to extremes while maintaining the ambience of a good old-fashioned smørrebrød restaurant.
Schønnemann is the perfect choice if you wish to get an overview of the dish and have the possibility of tasting almost the entire catalogue of classic Danish smørrebrød. Hosts Juliette and Thomas run this very busy restaurant as if it were their own living room. She manages the restaurant while he takes care of the kitchen.
