Diamond Lam Diamond Lam Nov 2025

Strongly recommend ! We dined in on the 8th Nov. It was our first time experience the Michelin resto in Copenhagen. We loved the food journey from the signature menu with amazing tastefully starters to dessert. There is an off side that the main course pigeon was quite simple in flavor comparing to the rest. Also I was glad that the chef had alternatives for pregnancy instead of the cheese platter (it looked yum tbh) which I think they did a good job to satisfy me 👍🏻. The dark choco is healthy & fresh but tasted like eastern medicine. I like the banana pearls so much better. We liked the dishes explanation from the lively young chef wearing glasses. Wine pairing selection was excellent that both my gfs couldn’t resist. At last, we d like to thanks to Mr. V (from Cezch Republic) for his hospitality ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I felt his friendliness and attention in the service 10/10 maybe smile sometimes 😊 and don’t feel shy.
