After meeting the guide near Frederiksborggade in central Copenhagen, take a leisurely walk around the city to explore Danish cuisine and its rich gastronomic heritage. In recent decades, Denmark was known for its conservative approach to food. However, the country’s cuisine is undergoing a transformation, with many Copenhagen restaurants replacing the heavy dishes of the past with meals crafted from seasonal, local ingredients that offer clean and refined flavors.

Copenhagen is the ideal place to experience the new Nordic cuisine, so let the guide introduce you to the locals’ favorite dining spots. The city’s vibrant food scene is always changing, so the restaurants and delicatessens visited may vary on the day of your tour. The places mentioned are just examples of potential stops.

Begin with a visit to Torvehallerne covered market halls to explore Arla Unika, Copenhagen’s premier cheese shop. Taste artisan cheese, created in collaboration with the city’s Michelin-starred chefs, and appreciate the aromatic offerings before heading to Bornholm Shop to sample liquorice, caramels, and preserves.

Stroll through the Copenhagen Botanical Gardens and enjoy a taste of Danish apple wine while relaxing in the lush green surroundings. Then, pause at Aamanns café – a favorite among locals for its hearty open sandwiches called smørrebrød, made from sourdough rye bread and primarily organic and free-range ingredients. Proceed to a nearby restaurant, Nørrebro Bryghus, to try three different types of home-brewed beer, and then enjoy an organic hotdog sample from Copenhagen’s Ecological Hotdog Stand.

Conclude your tour at Summerbird Chocolate. Known for producing Copenhagen’s most luxurious chocolate and candy, the shop is also famous for its (highly addictive) flødeboller – chocolate-coated marshmallows.

After savoring the culinary delights of Copenhagen, return to the starting point where your tour concludes.
