The Copenhagen food scene is known as one of the most exciting in the world. The prominence of the Danish capital is largely thanks to the diffusion effect of the New Nordic cuisine movement and Noma, chef René Redzepi’s three Michelin star restaurant voted best restaurant in the world four times (2010, 2011, 2012, 2014s). Though it’s a small city, Copenhagen has no shortage of fantastic places to eat, at a wide range of price points, from charming local eateries to high luxury (there’s no shortage of Michelin-starred restaurants in this city, if that’s your thing). While the type of food and ..read more

Where do you go to get the best pizza in Copenhagen? Sure, you can get pizza at almost any fast food restaurant in Copenhagen.

But if you’re looking for pizza that’s slightly more up-market, with organic ingredients and seasonal toppings, Copenhagen has some excellent choices. Here’s where to get Copenhagen’s best pizza: Surt Rossopomodoro Pico La Fiorita Baest Behov Corsa Ot ..read more

If burgers are your thing, Copenhagen will not disappoint you. What makes an excellent burger? A well-seasoned patty (beef, veggie or otherwise), fresh toppings and, of course, a bun that is neither too dry nor too flimsy.

When you want a good cocktail, nothing else will scratch that itch. We know, we’ve been there. Whether it’s a classic martini – made with GIN, please. I’m not interested in these new-fangled vodka martinis – or something with muddled mint, cucumber and ginger (that sounds good. Did I just make that up?), Copenhagen’s got a vast array of bars around the city that are waiting to serve you the best cocktails. Be warned: top-shelf and, yeah, even house-liquor cocktails are not cheap in this city. But that just means you’re forced to really enjoy each sip! From hot new hidden dens to tried-and-tru ..read more

There are many Scandinavian bakeries and cafes in London. Scandinavia’s renowned rituals of afternoon coffee and cardamom buns, after-work beers, and spending time in the sauna all mark pivotal moments to slow down. From hygge to lagom Scandinavians have found ways to bring moments of peace to daily life; perhaps that’s why Londoners are so taken with the Scandi traditions. Scandinavia’s calming approach to design further adds to the appeal: simple wooden furnishings, plenty of white contrasted by vivid green plants and modern art, and flickering candle light make for a welcoming setting ..read more

With its vibrant green colour, matcha tea is hard to miss. Often used in Japanese tea ceremonies, matcha is finely ground from high-grade green tea leaves and has been consumed for centuries for its health benefits.   What is the difference between green tea and matcha? Green tea and matcha come from the same plant, called Camellia sinensis. The difference is that green tea is made using leaves or a bag of tea, while matcha is made from a pulverised powder. For that reason, matcha often has a stronger flavor. In recent years, matcha tea combined with foamed milk – called a match ..read more
