Eat Copenhagen

A collection of recipes from an effortlessly stylish city, interspersed with stories that set the culinary scene of the Danish capital.

From the chic restaurants of Vesterbro to the buzzing streets of Nørrebro, eating in Copenhagen is quite unlike dining anywhere else in the world. Known for its innovation, the city’s calming vibe draws people from everywhere, and for good reason.

Eat Copenhagen explores the feel and the taste of Copenhagen through the recipes – from early morning Cardamom Buns and Cinnamon Kringles to Christmassy Gløgg, Honey Bombs and Hot Chocolate, through smørrebrøds and Scandi-style salads for summer – and interwoven stories of the city – the cafés and konditori, the markets and restaurants – so you can enjoy a little moment of hygge from home.
