Restaurant cofoco/nose to tail

Having heard allot of good stuff about this restaurant, from former colleagues a friend of mine and me went for dinner at Cofoco.

From what i know, this is the first restaurant this company did, and now they have around 10 restaurants, serving up payable "gourmet light" i think you could call it.

You can go A la carte, ore go on menu`s 4 ore 6 courses.

We went for 4 courses, but instead of taking the "chef`s recommend" we went a la carte on 4 courses.

The price difference is only like 35 kr, and then you get to pick the dishes you like.

We basicly went for the heart attack sounding kinda stuff, nuggets, mushroom toast with bearnaise, sweet breads and brown butter icecream...... so yes this was a heavy night.

Oh yeah and starting out with snacks (mostly deep fried didn`t make it lighter:)

anyway here´s what we went fore.

Snack:
Potato, pork cracklings, and deepfried beef jerkie, almonds, and unripe peach with mayonnaise.
For 45 kr. pr person this was an okay little serving, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Nice bread, with smoked cheese/dill dipping.
The bread was pretty good, nice and tuff wich i like, but both of us really missed some proper butter instead of the cheese dip.
After asking the waiter, we never got an answer back if we could just have some butter.
(maby its a chef`s thing)

Chicken nuggets, and cafè de paris dip, and grilled corn.
Big ass starter, and very hearty. but nice taste, the dipping had to much curry taste, but the nuggets was really good.

Mushroom toast.
Mix of mushrooms, we where told there where chantarelles, but we couldnt find them.
Cep bearnaise hearbs, and croutons.
a nice dish, but as with all dishes this night, lacking just the last element to go from good, to awesome.

Sweetbreads, carrots, pickled beats, cress and egg based sauce.
Good dish, though it would have been really nice if the sweetbreads had maby been salted over night, to get the taste more intense.

Browned butter icecream, crumble and buttermilk sauce.
Unfortunally a pretty boring dessert.
Both taste of buttermilk and browned butter in the ice-cream where none existent.

Well we where pretty full we agreed, and having a couple of beers before this visit, and a bit of bobbles and red wine we didnt need anymore......
Buuuuuuuut being chef`s and not really having that natural stop button you should own in your head and body, we went for a after dinner snack at Nose To Tail.
A chacuteri board of patès of horse, pork aaaaand so on, chicken liver mousse and home made mustard.
Did we need it....no......did our body`s disagree the next day....well yeah.....but was it good......YES indeed!!!!!

The board at nose to tail


So all in all, Cofoco`s a nice place  its pretty cheap and the food is what to expect at the price.
The service friendly (exept for the butter situation).
We ended with a bill round 1200 kr. doing 4 courses, snacks, a glass of bobbles and an okay bottle of red vine.
You cant do that much cheaper in Copenhagen theese days...
