Over the weekend, Danish chef Rene Redzepi of Noma posted a major announcement to the restaurant’s website: He and his team of more than 40 cooks, servers, and dishwashers will be setting up their restaurant in Barangaroo, a suburb of Sydney, for 10 weeks beginning in January 2016.

Earlier this year, Redzepi experimented with the long-term pop-up structure in Tokyo, where he ran Noma on the 37th floor of the Mandarin Oriental for five weeks. The meal was astonishing, beginning with an unforgettable wriggling shrimp covered in ants from the Nagano forest, and the wait list for dinner was reportedly 60,000 names long.
