Andreas Krolik, Gault & Millau Germany 2017’s Chef of the Year who has 19 out of 20 rating and chef of 2 Michelin starred Lafleur will be the chef to succeed Toni Romero’s pop-up of Barcelona favourite Suculent which ends on May 27.
Krolik said: “We are very excited and proud to be able to present Lafleur in one of the culinary capitals of the world. Our guests can except a great experience with high aromatic and flavourful dishes which we always combine with powerful sauces and essences. We will bring a bit of Frankfurt, located in the German belly to the Japanese tower and show the season on a plate and in each dish. Sometimes light, herbal, spicy, fruity and sometimes powerful. We will also bring great German and rare aged wines from our famous wine cellar to Copenhagen which we trust will complete the full Lafleur experience.”
Visitors to the Tivoli gardens can look forward to a choice of three menus, a purely vegan cuisine menu, another with meat and a third all in that includes a lobster dish. Other signature dishes to highlight on the Copenhagen menu are the two kinds of spicy carrots with pointed cabbage in Kimchi curry broth, green carrot cream and sesame, as well as the varied mushrooms cultivated by Kroll in Offenbach served as a raviolo, as marinated mushrooms and as a mushroom broth with kohlrabi and spring leek.
After the success of Suculent’s pop-up which is still ongoing at the Japanese tower of Tivoli Gardens in the centre of Copenhagen, it will be the turn of Andreas Krolik to showcase his love for deep and complex green flavours between June 2 and July 2.

Lafleur is located amid the Frankfurt high rises and finances, in a giant palm garden where Andreas Krolik since 2014 has cooked vegan long before this became the trend of the day. He does so with an intensity, depth and complexity that makes you forget all about not having meat or seafood.
Tivoli Gardens was founded in 1843 and has become a national treasure and an international attraction. Fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen visited many times, as did Walt Disney who found the inspiration for his own Disney World there. When the garden was founded it was placed outside the city’s moats, but today it’s located right next to the Central Station and within walking distance of City Hall
Part of Tivoli Gardens’ secret is that there is something for everyone. The scenery is beautiful with exotic architecture, historic buildings and lush gardens. At night, thousands of coloured lights create a fairytale atmosphere that is completely unique. It has quirks and charm, and details for you to discover – you might also catch a glimpse of the guinea fowls or peacocks running freely through the gardens.
