Mad means food in Danish and this festival was exactly that.
The festival was hosted by chef René Redzepi, who is the co owner of Noma, the worlds best restaurant.
I have been trying to make a booking and every single day this year is booked. My best bet is to keep on trying, and fingers crossed some lucky guy will be dining with me in 2014.
This wasn't your average food festival, there were farmers, high quality fresh ingredients from the sea and other parts of Europe. Also workshops on soil quality, grazing livestock, and much more from passionate foodies who care about the treatment and growth of food, rather than the price of it.
What I saw, and some things I tasted at the festival:
