Week 7 is Copenhagen Dining Week - Fabulous and cheap meals for everybody!

This year, Copenhagen Dining Week is running for the third year in a row. It is a concept run by Copenhagen Food Magazine and San Pellegrino together, and is part of the winter edition of the food festival "Copenhagen Cooking". For 200 dkk you can eat a predefined three course meal, including a bottle of sparkling San Pellegrino water in one of the more than 100 good Copenhagen restaurants in the concept... Now thats cheap! Tickets should be bought well in advance of week 7 here.

Last monday, I decided to try a restaurant that I have never been to, together with a good friend. We went to "Nimb Terasse".

Nimb Terasse" is located in the old Tivoli garden in Copenhagen, but is not situated inside the Nimb building facing Copenhagen Central Station. Instead it is located inside in the garden itself, in a rather anonymous building... But don´t be fooled. The interior exceeds the exterior.

The athmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our coats were taken and put in the wardrobe, and we were seated immediatly.
The menu was as follows:

• Starter:Tartar of codfish, with cucumber, dill and a horseradish sauce.
• Main Course: Chicken with celery root, burnt charlottes and a sauce with smoked marrow
• Dessert: Poched pear with white chocolate parfait and liqourice

 

First dish:

 

My favorite of the evening! Smooth and wonderful, with a nice kick from the horseradish. Great dish!

Second dish:


Third dish:

Third dish was the favorite with my compagnion. Great dish with amazing flavours!

 

After the dessert, we decided to take our coffee in the lounge next to the bar. A great place to get a cocktail, or to just relax with a cup of coffee.

We had a cafe latte with cinnamon macarons and a chocolate with passionfruit.

A great and cheap evening! I love Copenhagen Dining Week, especially because it gives you the ability to try out some restaurants that you might not have tried otherwise. I will definitly return to this place in the future.

Recommendation - Library Bar in Copenhagen

Library Bar in Copenhagen is one of the small oases in the city, where you can be sure to relax, and pull out the plug, all while drinking a chilled cocktail, a cognac or a hot irish coffee (in the winter).
It is located just next the Copenhagne Central Station, inside Hotel Plaza, which is very convenient if you have had one to many of the cocktails!
The atmosphere is casual chic, with lots of dark wood, cognac colored leather furniture and books along the wall. (Add the shoulderpaddings and the pinstriped suits and we would be back in "Dollars"). There are no windows in the bar which contributes to the very intimate atmosphere (and will easy make you forget all about time and space.)
This friday I meet with a long time not seen friend to catch up, and get a drink. I got the Plaza champagne cocktail, with dark rum, champagne and ginger ale - very refreshing! He had a beer.

If you wanna visit Library Bar, you can do so on this adress:
