Hi --
Recommendations from my trip to Denmark:
- Eat at Noma
- If you can't get into Noma, good surrogates are Relae, Alberto K, Geranium, Restaurant AOC
- Or try Dine with the Danes or Spiseloppen for something different
- Roam Christiania, check-out the grafitti art, venture down Pusher Street
- Drink a beer outside and people-watch
- Walk up the Rundetaarn
- Shop for home furnishings at Illums Bolighus, Normann Copenhagen, Hay and Klassic Moderne Mobelkunst
- Take a train north to Kronborg Castle and the Louisiana Museum
- Bring lots of $
- Don't jaywalk

I just read your blog and I like your style! Danes really do have good design taste and they are a good looking bunch too. When I think of the men, he men were all of slight build to me. In Sweden I see them as either Vikings or elves in stature. In regards to food, from first glance, I can't say that I would enjoy anything on that NOMA menu except for that dessert which sounded plain and simply yummy!
Hi Finecheapboxof wine --
Thanks!
I liked how the Swedish men dressed: preppy, and very smart in their slim-cut suits.
As for Noma, you are right: the dessert was crazy good, and I don't even have a sweet tooth. The radishes were fun because they were gimmicky, but there's a limit to how good radishes can taste. The soup was pretty memorable, if you like salt and umami.
