Â
More than 60 people had food poisoning at a Danish restaurant dubbed the world's best eatery, it has emerged.
Â
Health officials said diners at Copenhagen's Noma restaurant fell sick over a five-day period in February, suffering from vomiting and diarrhoea.
Â
It was not clear what caused the outbreak, but reports say the source may have been a sick kitchen employee.
Â
Noma, which topped Restaurant Magazine's list of the world's 50 Best Restaurants in 2010-12, has apologised.
Â
Officials from the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration revealed the results of their inspection on Friday.
Â
Agency spokesman Morten Lisby was quoted as describing the outbreak as "massive", according to the Associated Press news agency.
Â
The restaurant - which opened in 2004 - prides itself for its attention to detail and relying on fresh locally sourced products.
Â
Its chef Rene Redzepi has been described as "the standard bearer for the New Nordic movement".
Â
Noma charges up to 1,500 kroner (£175; $260) for a menu without drinks, and reservations often must be made months in advance.
