This popular budget restaurant offers 15 different types

such as fettuccine in a white wine sauce with grilled
salmon strips, garnished with salmon caviar and saffron.
The unfussy, unpretentious surroundings are bright and
airy and are also home to an all-you-can-eat daily buffet.
As well as being good value for money, Pasta Basta is
family friendly and has over 150 seats. |

Kultorvet |
Price:Dkk150.
Wine: Dkk155 |
|
This bistro is situated on a corner of the Kultorvet
market and serves a decent Danish menu, both set and
à la carte. The cubicle layout, decorated with
old plates and photographs of Copenhagen in years gone
by, makes for intimate conversation. The restaurant
is ideal for lunch, with its popular open sandwiches
(smørrebrød) with herring, egg, shrimps
or smoked salmon. Alternatively, for a more substantial
early evening meal (the bistro closes around 2000 hrs),
there are good-value standbys like pork with Béarnaise
sauce and salad. |

Puk |
Price:
Dkk250. Wine: Dkk159 |
|
This slightly down-at-heel basement bar-restaurant is
not the place for those who want a sophisticated or
a very elegant setting. Although its rustic atmosphere,
with wooden beams, old photographs and paintings, is
enhanced with various objects dotted around, such as
ancient cash registers, dolls, battered musical instruments,
books and statuettes, adding a quirky, off-beat appeal.
For no-nonsense basic Danish cuisine, it is hard to
find anywhere better. House specialities include herrings
in various guises (pickled, marinated and curried) Wienerschnitzel,
fillet of ox baked on an oak platter (planksteak), and
‘old cheese’ served with a splash of rum.

This small, lively deli is perfect for anyone looking
for a tasty and quick lunch in the trendy Nørrebro
area of the city. The Italian and French deli food on
offer (mainly sandwiches, salads, houmous and soup)
is among the cheapest in Copenhagen and great value
for its high quality. Most people grab something ‘to
go’, but there are tables in summer for a more
leisurely meal. |
