A Culinary Collaboration: Ida Bauhn x Desirée Jaks at Nour

On February 25 and 26, we invite our guests to embark on a rare culinary journey. For two exclusive evenings, our Head Chef Ida Bauhn and the acclaimed 2023 Chef of the Year winner Desirée Jaks will join forces in the kitchen to present a unique Four Hands Dinner. The concept of a Four Hands Dinner involves two chefs coming together to create a harmonious dining experience that reflects their combined knowledge and creativity. This collaboration will merge their personal styles and signature dishes into a menu that celebrates the finest seasonal ingredients and their shared passion.

“For me, it’s not just an experience for the guests but also an opportunity for us as chefs to create something new and personal through working together,” says Desirée Jaks.

The menu will be rooted in Nordic traditions, infused with Desirée’s Polish heritage, Ida’s inspirations, and the distinctive character of Sayan Isaksson’s Nour. “During the dinner, we aim to maintain the service experience that Nour is known for while serving food that reflects both Ida and me. This results in a menu featuring dishes and ingredients that we’ve worked on together as well as our own signature creations. Naturally, we want to preserve Nour’s identity during these evenings, but for these two nights, the restaurant will wear a new outfit. The foundation and heart remain the same, with the staff playing a key role, but there will be a fresh touch in the menu’s ingredients and flavors,” says Desirée. Winter, a season often underestimated for its produce, will shine on the menu, showcasing carefully selected seafood and other seasonal delicacies. The meticulously curated beverage pairings will remain a secret for now, promising a holistic experience that leaves a lasting impression. “There’s so much to embrace even during the winter season. We’ll be working extensively with seafood and other ingredients that we’ve perfected in their season,” says Ida.

“There’s so much to embrace even during the winter season,” says Ida Bauhn.

Ida Bauhn, our Head Chef for the past six months and recent winner of the Stella Chef Award, joins forces with Desirée Jaks, Sweden’s Chef of the Year 2023, to bring an exciting dynamic to this collaboration. Their partnership has been honed through previous work at renowned establishments such as Agrikultur and the Swedish Culinary Team, where Ida serves as team captain. Together, they promise an evening that balances comfort with surprise, delivering dishes that captivate and impress. “What’s important to me is that we’re both proud and satisfied with a menu that reflects both my and Ida’s cooking while staying true to the identity and concept of the Nour experience. Happy guests are, of course, our top priority, but I also hope that the Nour staff find this event equally exciting and enjoyable,” says Desirée.

This exclusive event takes place only on February 25 and 26.

Swedish Masterchef semi-finalist Hedvig Henrekson at Nour

On April 21st, we had the honor of welcoming a very special guest, Hedvig Henrekson, known for her impressive third-place finish in the prestigious competition, Sweden’s Masterchef. Hedvig’s cooking has won hearts and taste buds across the country, and her dishes are known for their flavor, warmth, balance, and energy. She was at Nour on a Sunday, preparing Danish sandwiches for over 300 eager guests.

Hedvig, who recently returned to Sweden after spending five inspiring years in Copenhagen, brings with her a treasure trove of experiences and flavors from Denmark. If you ask her about the two best things she brought back from Denmark, the answer will be Flæskesteg sandwich and Danish remoulade sauce. These two culinary gems have been a source of inspiration for Hedvig and our own Sayan, who together crafted two exclusive sandwiches for the event on April 21st.

The first sandwich is a tribute to the classic Flæskesteg sandwich, but with a unique twist. Imagine juicy pork with wonderfully crispy crackling. This composition was complemented by sweet-sour red cabbage, a creamy dijonaise, and lightly pickled cucumber.

The second sandwich offered that day was inspired by the Danes’ beloved national dish, plaice with remoulade sauce. Sayan and Hedvig’s interpretation included crispy fish in perfect harmony with a flavorful curry remoulade, accompanied by the same pickled cucumber that adds a fresh contrast to the deeper flavors.

This day at Nour was not just an opportunity to enjoy exceptional food, but also a chance to gather friends and family for a pleasant time together.

We at Nour are very excited to share this special day with you here. It was an evening where we, along with our guests, experienced cooking that combines the best of Swedish and Danish cuisines, presented by one of Sweden’s rising stars in cooking.

In 2017, he not only emerged victorious in “Kockarnas Kamp” (Chefs’ Battle, a famous Swedish TV-show) but also received the accolade of “Best Malmö Ambassador” in the same year. The year 2021 witnessed Tareq clinching two “Kristallen” awards, including the prestigious title of “TV Personality of the Year.” During that same remarkable year, he took on the honorable role of hosting SVT’s Christmas special.

Johnnie Walker product launch

During the fall the charming people of Johnnie Walker decided to host a product launch party at Nour for their new flavour Johnnie Walker Blue Label Elusive Umami, which is a limited edition crafted by Emma Walker and the renowned Japanese chef Kei Kobayashi. Umami being a japanese word to describe the “fifth taste”, they decided to pair their new whiskey with our Nour cuisine. The evening was truly special, thank you Johnnie Walker!

Engelbert evening

The beautiful and well-renowned Engelbert, with a tradition of over a hundred years of Swedish jewelry manufacturing, stood as the sender and was received for a magical evening at our restaurant.
