Construction costs on Rene Redzepi's temporary relocation of his famed Copenhagen restaurant Noma to Sydney early next year will hit $1,017,275, according to a Development Application lodged with the City of Sydney.

Throw in the 35 chefs, 30 waiters and 10 admin personnel Redzepi is bringing to Sydney and Noma Australia is one costly 10-week pop-up.

According to the DA, the Barangaroo restaurant will trade from 11am to midnight, so there will at least be a lunch and dinner service to claw back some of those costs.

Redzepi is anything but risk adverse, announcing he'll close Noma in Copenhagen on New Year's Eve next year, reopening it in 2017 on a derelict piece of land in Copenhagen which he'll transform into an urban farm.

In the meantime, Sydneysiders have a Noma appetiser with the opening of the Sam Miller fronted Silvereye restaurant at The Old Clare in Chippendale.

Miller, the former executive sous chef at Noma, is offering Sydney a masterclass in pickling, fermenting, smoking, salting and curing.
