Overview

Kokkeriet was a Danish restaurant located on Kronprinsessegade in central Copenhagen. The establishment operated as a family-run business under the ownership of Sammy and Mikkel Shafi, with Sammy Shafi involved in its day-to-day management. Its kitchen was managed by chef David Johansen. Available reference material identifies Kokkeriet primarily as a restaurant rather than as a packaged-goods or multi-location consumer brand. The documented business model therefore centered on an individual dining venue, its kitchen, hospitality operations, and the restaurant experience delivered at its Copenhagen address. Publicly available information in the supplied sources does not establish a founding year, a founder separate from the owners, a parent company, a formal corporate group, a website currently in operation, or a confirmed closure date. The restaurant is described in the past tense in the reference material, but the available evidence is insufficient to assign a definitive active or defunct status. No reliable information is supplied about its menu categories, signature dishes, Michelin recognition, awards, expansion plans, financial performance, or international operations. Kokkeriet should consequently be understood as a Copenhagen restaurant brand with a strongly owner-operated and family-business identity, rather than being conflated with another business sharing a similar name.

History

Kokkeriet was a restaurant in central Copenhagen, Denmark, situated on Kronprinsessegade. The available reference material presents it as a distinct restaurant establishment rather than a broad consumer-products label or a chain. Its operating identity was closely associated with the Shafi family: Sammy Shafi and Mikkel Shafi owned the business, while Sammy also managed it on a daily basis. This ownership and management structure indicates a hands-on family-run model in which the owners were directly connected to the restaurant's routine operations. The kitchen was managed by chef David Johansen, making the culinary team a central part of the venue's documented organization. Beyond these details, the supplied sources do not provide a verified opening date, founding story, ownership chronology, menu history, awards, expansion record, financial information, or confirmed closure date. Although the restaurant is described in the past tense, that wording alone does not establish precisely when or whether the business ceased trading. Kokkeriet's documented historical significance is therefore limited to its identity as a Copenhagen restaurant, its location on Kronprinsessegade, its family ownership by Sammy and Mikkel Shafi, its daily management by Sammy, and the kitchen leadership of David Johansen. No evidence in the supplied material supports attributing the name to another similarly named company, product, or international brand.
