Spiseri
Griffenfeldsgade 28
2200 Copenhagen N
(+ 45) 42 36 02 22
Open Wed-Sat. 17:30-24

Notes:
Spiseri is an unpretentious and endearing restaurant driven by four very skilled and hospitable women. The price level is noble as well. We payed just above 1000 dkk for 4 courses each, two glasses of crémant to start off with, a bottle of spätburgunder, water and coffee. The restaurant is always staggering full, so reservations are a must. Highly recommended.

Sværtegade 2

1118 Copenhagen K

Notes:

My boyfriend took me by surprise on a warm summer day where we were really supposed to do nothing. Kongens Have was a perfect stage for cupcake-eating perfectly accompanied by a bottle of Mondori Asti (Irma's finest through many, many years). And yes, we ate them all!

Nikolaos Strangas Conditori & Cakeaway

Cakes and coffee

Nikolaos Strangas Conditori & Cakeaway

Åboulevard 7

1635 Copenhagen V

Notes:

Unfortunately I do not remember the exact details of the very elaborated cakes we bought at Nikolaos Strangas' cakeaway. But they were delicious! Admittedly, they are on the pricy side, retailing at around 40dkk each but it was a delicious afternoon treat enjoyed on a bench by the lakes.

Råkultur

Råkultur
Kungstensgatan 2
11425 Stockholm

Notes:
A marathon led us to Stockholm this May, and what better strategy for a carb feast than going for sushi? I had read about Råkultur around the net prior to our visit and had high expectations - which were certainly fulfilled. Fifteen pieces set us back less than 180sek each, which is quite a bargain 1) for this exceptionally high quality of sushi 2) compared to the quite expensive restaurant scene in Stockholm. I was especially impressed with the nigiri selection which really showcased the incredible fish quality while almost each piece also had a little detail added such as roe, an emulsion or a sort of spice. Highly recommended.
