Koks: The World's Most Difficult Michelin-Starred Restaurant To Get To
By Stacie Adams
When it comes to unforgettable dining experiences, Koks, which has been awarded two Michelin stars, sets the bar extremely high. However, this prestigious honor isn’t the only interesting thing about the establishment, as any interested guests will learn, that accessing the restaurant’s unique location is an adventure within itself.
Koks, normally located on the difficult-to-reach Faroe Islands, has temporarily relocated to the even more remote Ilimanaq Lodge in Greenland while they build a larger venue. According to the Ilimanaq Lodge website, guests must first access Ilulissat — the third largest town in Greenland — via plane from either Copenhagen, Denmark, or Reykjavik, Iceland.
Upon reaching Ilulissat, guests must take a boat to reach the restaurant and those planning a trip for 2023 only have the option of staying one night as part of the Koks Ilimanaq experience. While great effort is required and the stay is relatively brief, the memories made during this excursion are sure to last a lifetime.
