The dining culture of Denmark is rooted in tradition yet driven by innovation and provides an exceptional gourmet experience.
Visiting Copenhagen and other Danish cities, you'll find a variety of dining options from cozy coffee shops serving Smørrebrød, the classic Danish open-faced sandwich, to Michelin-starred restaurants where chefs are persistently developing contemporary state-of-the-art styles and cooking techniques.
Discover the traditional tastes of Denmark with popular dishes like Frikadeller (pan-fried meatballs) and Flæskesteg (roast pork with crackling). The country’s coastline provides an abundance of seafood. Herring and smoked salmon are often featured in the Danish diet.
If you are looking for local sweet treats, there’s nothing better than Wienerbrød. These flaky, buttery pastries with custard or fruit filling are a must-try for the country’s guests.
