good food

Finally back in CPH, I'd like to thank you guys for all your recommandations and advice. I didn't make it to the Scotch Malt Whisky Society but I did go on the touristy tour at the Whisky Tasting Experience. That was alright and very informative. I was very happy to get an oppotunity to try 8 different types (the four regions, and blend, single, vatted malt and grain whisky) at the bar in the basement. There's a map of Scotland with little red lights showing the location of each of the single malts destilleries. Went to The Bow Bar a couple of times - preferable in daytime because of the fluorescent tubes creating a not so cosy light when it's dark outside. Impressive selection offering casks too. Loved the tiny narrow tables. Perhaps it a good thing I don't live in Scotland. Went twice to Cafe Royal and sadly found shell pieces or sand in them both times. The mussels, however, were the best I got in Edinburgh and the service sweetly unique and conscientious. And Fishers is good too and the oysters very good. Kitchen was fabulous. Certainly hope to be back again sometime! Thanks Trine

Wonderful! Thanks so much for all these lovely tips. And if I won't make it to the SMWS at least they provide a fun an informative introduction to tasting simgle malts. I think I forgot to tell that I'm almost as new to Whisky as to Scotland - which will be my first visit. (Have to reconsider wedgwood now. Why did I pick that place anyway???;-)

I'm going to Edinburgh next week for four days and already got reservations at Kitchin (and Wedgwood...). But, would very much like to taste some very good whisky - where's that possibe? If you know of a good pub I'd like to try that as well. Thanks in advance

I agree fully with FDE. I went to Falsled Kro first time in November last year. I have reviewed the restaurant on my blog: http://verygoodfood.wordpress.com/tag/falsled-kro/ Unfortunately I didn't get to sleep there though. Food wise I would definitely choose Søllerød Kro over Falsled. This is my latest Søllerød Kro experience: http://verygoodfood.wordpress.com/2007/07/09/sollerodkro/ Trine

Thanks a lot for input!

Can someone tell me whether the 12 stars is a record and if not, what's the max. number that Copenhagen has ever had? Also, it could be interesting to know exactly what wasn't good enough for formel B to receive the second star this year. Anybody?

GORGEOUS, Adey!! Thank you - and thanks for your link!

Lovely, lovely close-up photos and thorough description. The quail's egg are jupping right into my mouth. Almost. Thank you Yin.

Hi Neu, Thank you so much for the beautiful photos. I went to noma for dinner on 2 August and had what you had for lunch except the beer porridge. I was so carried away that I forgot to photograph the goat and the blueberries dishes, and am most delighted to see the pictures here. Thank you. Wow, Yin. Great photos, too! Very enjoyable. Thanks. cheers from Copenhagen, Trine
