2 Best Restaurants in Funen and the Central Islands, Denmark

This small restaurant draws a full house almost every night with its New Nordic–inspired prix-fixe menu. You will start out with a selection of creative snacks; continue with starters like burned salmon with a sauce of fermented cucumber, avocado, and salt-pickled lemon; have duck prepared in several ways with new carrots as a main; and finish off with a dessert of pears with rosemary cream. The team behind the restaurant also runs a Parisian-inspired bakery and café, Canelé, and the classic French bistro Salig Simons Gård, both located nearby.

The six tables at Vår are a popular place to get a taste of Funen, as the small restaurant uses only organic produce from local farms. You can opt for five, seven, or 10 small dishes, such as scallops with buckwheat, zucchini, and peas, and pair them with organic and natural wines from Europe.
