So Much TO EAT in COPENHAGEN!!!

Copenhagen has some of the world’s best cuisine, so in this video we brought our appetite to The City of Spires. Join us as we travel around the city to find some of the city’s best eats. From sweet to savory and everything in between, we dined on some of Copenhagen’s tastiest bites.
Our first stop was breakfast, of course. We went to one of the city’s finest food halls, Torvehallerne, to try one of Copenhagen’s favorite breakfast foods, Grød. We were not disappointed in the sweet, creamy tasty porridge dish we had with crisp apples, crunchy almonds, and rich caramel sauce. What a great way to start!
Next we indulged in an incredible cheeseburger from Gasoline Grill. Not only was this juicy, tangy burger an incredible treat, but it’s also at a functioning gas station. Located in the heart of Copenhagen, Gasoline Grill has only been around since 2016 but is sure to become an institution. Be sure to come early in the day before they run out of these incredible burgers.
For something a bit sweeter, we tried the Hindbærsnitter or raspberry tart. We saw these all around town at different bakeries, and had to try one for ourselves. It was a rush of sugary goodness, so be prepared with a cup of black coffee or tea to balance out your tastebuds.
Our next stop was Tivoli Gardens, one of the attractions we were looking forward to the most in our time in Copenhagen. We rode the Rutschebanen, which was built in 1914 and is one of the oldest operational wooden roller coasters in the world. We did not leave Tivoli Gardens without trying a Danish hotdog, topped with at least two types of onions, pickles, and a zesty remoulade. We also indulged in a Carlsberg beer, probably the best beer in the world. What a way to spend a gorgeous summer day in Copenhagen!
Not yet finished with our tasty trip around Copenhagen, we headed back to Torvehallerne to try fish cakes and tacos. The fish cakes were a tasty fried treat and highlighted the fresh fish that can be found all over Copenhagen. But tacos in Copenhagen?! That’s right, don’t forget to stop at Hija de Sanchez, a taco stall operated by Rosio Sanchez, one of the chefs formerly of restaurant NOMA. If you want to try some incredible food without the NOMA price tag, be sure to try the pork tacos with handmade tortillas.
One day wasn’t enough to try all the foods, and we couldn’t leave out the iconic Wienerbrød. What we here in the U.S. call the “Danish,” those in Denmark actually refer to the pastry as “Vienna Bread,” brought to Denmark by Austrian bakers and perfected to Danish tastes. We tried ones filled with custard and topped with almonds and powdered sugar. Be sure to stop early in the morning to have the pick of these indulgent, tasty treats.
We couldn’t skip out on one of the most iconic foods in Copenhagen: Smørrebrød. These open-faced sandwiches are covered in rich, fatty toppings that pair well with a strong Aquavit. Be sure to try one with Herring, a favorite fish of Copenhagen that can be prepared several ways, and a dessert Smorrebrod of some type (we tried cheese with jam) to indulge your sweet tooth.
Lastly we couldn’t leave without trying local candy. As much of Scandinavia is known for their love of liquorice, we had to try some while we were here, and decide on the abundant Tom’s Pingvin Klassisk Mix. While not personally our taste, if you are a liquorice lover don’t skip out on trying some while in Copenhagen.
We sure will miss Copenhagen but we did not go home with empty stomachs!

“Smørrebrød” translates directly to “buttered bread”. Traditionally the sequence is fish -> eggs -> assorted cuts of meats -> cheese. Snaps (aquavit - water of life) is enjoyed with especially the fish, but can be enjoyed throughout the meal. Together with snaps - cold beer is usually the preferred drink.

Yesss! Hindbærsnitte HAS to be eaten together with coffe (or tea) if you are an adult. Basically goes for all "Danishes" and desserts from a bakery. I feel a little pride that you, coming from New Orleans, liked the fish cake so much, you sure have traditions of crabs where you come from. One very big difference between Nordic seafood and large parts of the world are that our shrimps/lobsters/crabs etc are coldwater and they grow slower and gives a more "fresh" taste and a more "crispy" bite. Seafood fished in the waters between Denmark and Greenland are quality-wise the best seafood money can buy. I am aware that Royal Greenland have monopoly on the largest area where coldwater/slowest growing shrimps in the world are and they only catch them from a few very large ships where the shrimps are instantly deep-frozen after dragged onboard. You can buy the coldwater Royal Greenland shrimps in quality stores basically all around the world thus get the same taste as the richest people (and us lucky Scandinavians that have them here at home) on earth for a bargain. Besides that it makes Danes happy when we see how many that experience Smørrebrød for the first time and suddenly realise what the fuzz are all about. Happy that you seemed to enjoy your experiences here.

As a swede, it's nice that you tried the red hot dog. It's very much a have-to in Copenhagen. It's kind of like you have to get some fish and chips when visiting London. The red hot dog isn't a must because it's the best. It's a must because it's so iconic for Copenhagen. Otherwise, I like to say that the danes are great at anything that's bad for you; beer, candy, pastries, pork, tobacco. You name it.

The red colour was originally added to indicate that the susages were not 1. quality but 2.. They were sold cheaper to the Hot Dog Stands. Now it has become a tradition.

The recipe the Vienna bakers brought with them to Denmark was a more basic recipe than what you'll find in danish Wienerbrød. We danes refined the recipe, which includes more layers and a lot more butter inbetween those layers (which gives it the crisp and flakiness) :D Glad you enjoyed your stay!

you are absolutely correct the kaffe / hindbærsnitte combo is absolutely amazing... i get it every sunday as a snack ... .regarding the hotdog.. thers only one correct way to eat a danish hotdog and that is combined with the Cocio chololate milk.. Thank you for showing some of the fantastic food we can provide in copenhagen... The story about the Wienerbrød is ... in the 1840's bakers entered a strejke and the owners then had to import bakers from Vienna.. and according to records in 1843 the first danish baker got a license to make Wienerbrød..

Thank you for your Denmark series. Fried Pork Belly with White potatoes and Parsley sauce is the natonal dish. You can find some videos on YT. It is easier to "fry" the pork belly slices w. skin in the oven at 392F/200C for 20 -40 min till crisp but not soft nor dry. Its more a autumn and winter dish. It's a bit too much in the summer. Looks like you visited in May. You did a great job on the food.

Nice to hear you discovered the reason behind rye bread as the bottom of an open sandwich. It is the rich earthy tones and bitterness which combines so well with the topping: pickled herring, fish patties, meat or even potatoes or eggs. With sweet sour chrispy parts on top you get everything in one bit :-) I'm Danish and I love it.

The first pastry on the second day is known as Spandauer but is often called ‘the bakers bad eye’. The Hindbærsnitte looks like it was bought in Lagkagehuset and is perhaps not the most tasty variant - because of the extra layers of dough, there’s not enough raspberry jam to offset the sweet icing.

The fishcakes can be eaten hot (mostly fried at home)with potatos and Paisley sauce , remouladesauce or hollandaise( different references in families). Then you can cut the cold fishcake a put on rybread with remoulade. That was a very small representation of all of our great candy. Try our many varieties of chocolate.

If you ever go to Denmark again, try some Æbleskiver, they are delicious with some jam and powdered sugar. It literally means "apple slices", but there's no apple in them - weird, I know. 🤣 While on the subject of apples, Æblekage is essentially some apple sauce layered with bread crumps, crumbled macrons and some vanilla flavoured whipped cream on top.

"Emil Chr. Hansen single-handedly revolutionized brewing. At a stroke, he had shown the cause of the "yeast sickness", found a solution". Hansen saved all all beer breweries in the world and he gave it out the solution for free. Free is perhaps overstretched. He was afraid that the world would turn against beer and whereby his business. First example of open source ;)

Of course you have to have a schnapps for the herring. It has to have something to swim in when it goes down into the stomach. In fact, we also drink schnapps with the cheese. You need to have at most two schnapps when you eat. Otherwise, you will come to a halt. Incidentally, schnapps is also called Akvavit. It means the water of life.

The origin of the red sausage is actually a kind of old fashion date stamp. IN YE GOOD OLD DAYS(!!!!) (with less quality control and food safety!) the butchers making sausages was was colouring the day-old sausages red (they were cheaper, son more bought by the poor working class folk.), where as the fresh sausages was just the normal brown colour. The red colour caught on and is now VERY popular among kids (aaaand adults not FULLY grown up! ;) ). The colour is no longer an indication of how old the sausage is!
