(TRAVPR.COM) AUSTRALIA - May 2nd, 2011 - Travel operator and Nordic specialist 50 Degrees North has just confirmed the reservation at Copenhagen’s Noma Restaurant for the final dinner of its Nordic Food Tour. Bookings for Noma, recently named the “S. Pellegrino World's 50 Best Restaurants 2011” winner for the second year, are notoriously hard to confirm. Enjoying a dinner at Noma on the final night of the ‘Nordic Real Food’ tour of Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Denmark will be a remarkable finale, and one not to be missed.

The 23 day tour ex Australia starts in Helsinki, Finland, and includes a countryside gourmet retreat in Sweden, traditional cooking and game of the Norwegian mountains and fjords, seafood delicacies from Iceland and the Faroe Islands, and a dessert at Noma in the Nordic gourmet capital of Copenhagen.

At key points along the way the tour is hosted by acclaimed Nordic Chefs, some of whom have not only been part of developing the ‘New Nordic Manifesto’, but won international awards for their achievements within food innovation. The tour features a dinner at Grythyttan in central Sweden, a food and wilderness experience at Vianvang (Norwegian celebrity chef Arne Brimi’s dream eatery in the mountains of Norway), a dinner at Sigurdur Hall’s restaurant in Reykjavik, a tasting with chef Leif Sørensen in Torshavn (Faroe Islands) and an evening cruise onboard a schooner while savouring local fish soup carefully prepared by well known cook, Birgir Enni of the Faroe Islands.

As the tour travels through the Nordic region it combines exquisite food experiences with the beautiful scenery, art and design for which the Nordic region has become so well know.
