Smørrebrød at Hansens Gamle Familiehave

It is unfortunate that until few days ago, I haven't visited this institution in Copenhagen, or to be correct, in Frederiksberg. I've been walking or driven around Frederiksberg Castle, CPH Zoo and other landmarks in the neighborhood so many times... and yet...

This restaurant dates back from about 1623 and it has started serving Danish cuisine, Smørrebrød in particular, "only" last century or so. Literal translation of Smørrebrød is buttered bread and for more info see the other post.


The entrance of the garden...


and it's rustic/traditional interior.


Danish style of sweet sour herrings with onions...


Danish style meatballs (frikadeller) and prawns salad with asparagus...


egg, tomato, chives and onions, with home made mayonnaise.

I've been twice in just couple of days, and I already love it. Looking forward to check the dinner menu as it's sounds quite tasty. Not to mention the comprehensive wine and aquavit menu...

If you are up for very danish frokost (lunch), serious old-timer waitress, and good place to have fun, go for it.
