Darina Allen: Avocado Ice Pop

Thanks to René Redzepi and his team at Noma, food tourists from all over the world are beating a path to the Nordic countries to check out the food revolution that this iconic restaurant has sparked.

Nowadays many of the chefs and cooks who originally worked at Noma has opened their own restaurants to well-deserved critical acclaim.

I went over to Copenhagen recently to join the fifth anniversary celebrations of one of the best loved ‘spark-offs’, Relae. Christian Puglisi worked with René at Noma for many years. Like his friend, he is self-taught and an immensely creative free spirit - no chefs toques or pompous ego here.
