Allan Schultz, owner and chef of restaurant Parsley Salon in Hellerup, has had a week he likely won't forget soon.

On Monday, his restaurant was honored as it was awarded a star in this year's edition of the Michelin restaurant guide.

And on Saturday, success came again for Schultz as he won the cooking competition at the food festival "Sol over Gudhjem" on Bornholm.

The winning chef is an experienced chef, who already in the 1990s put his mark on the Copenhagen food scene.

After a period where he was completely out of the spotlight and the restaurant industry, the 58-year-old chef returned a few years ago and opened a restaurant at Hellerup Parkhotel.

Allan Schultz came second best among the four participants in the first round of "Sol over Gudhjem", where it was about making an appetizer.

However, with 180 points out of a possible 240 for his main course, he surpassed all competitors and solidly took the lead in the competition.

Like the other competitors in the competition, he had to use a series of mandatory ingredients in his main course serving.

These included, among other things, chicken wings, veal shanks and potatoes.

Points were given for factors such as taste, presentation and the dish's connection to Bornholm.
