This restaurant is something of a local secret and is
set to remain that way unless it changes its booking
policy. Diners have to book weeks in advance and then
receive an ‘invitation’ to come around for
dinner at 1900 hrs in this homely yet impeccably stylish
second-floor venue. The set menus take diners on a unique
culinary journey, lasting the evening, through many
different cuisines and styles of cooking, although primarily
Modern Danish with a classical basis. There is only
space for 16 or so diners, the 9-course dinner has to
be paid for in advance (fixed price) and the restaurant
is open only from Wednesday until Saturday. |

A small L-shaped bistro situated on the corner of Ny
Østergade and Hovedvagtsgade, Café Victor
is proving quite popular with celebrities. Divided into
a bar-café and a restaurant, it combines excellent
Danish food with fast and friendly service. The menu
features herring in various guises, good salads and
familiar dishes with pork, fish and steak. Fresh oysters
are served daily. A great chatty place for a quick lunch,
while the restaurant merits a longer stay for a relaxing
dinner. |

| Cascabel
Madhus |
Price:
Dkk160. Wine: Dkk140. |
|
A Vegetarian heaven is the best way to describe this
popular, good-value restaurant. Cascabel Madhus is located
off the main tourist trail but is still close to the
city centre and, as it does not feature in many guidebooks,
it is a good place to eat like the locals do in unfussy
surroundings. The eat-in or take-away menu revolves
around vegetarian curries and rice dishes, but also
includes orange pepper and goat’s cheese quiche,
chick pea, pepper and basil ‘meatballs’
(frikadeller), and mushrooms with pumpkin seeds, as
well as three-choice combination dishes. Excellent value
for money. Closed at weekends. Not open for dinner.

| Il
Ristorante |
Price:
Dkk345. Wine: Dkk180 |
|
One of the best Italian restaurants in the city, offering
a traditional repertoire of classic Italian pasta and
dessert. The fillet of lamb in a red wine sauce, the
duck in an orange sauce and the tournedos in a light
mustard sauce are all rather special. The wine list
is modest but well thought out. Subdued lighting and
ochre walls adorned with old paintings and pictures
make this a smart but relaxed restaurant, an easy place
to enjoy an inexpensive meal. |

Proving that there is no such thing as ‘just a

walls bedecked with some old family photos. Diners should
remember, however, that Restaurant Ida Davidsen is a
lunch venue only and it closes at 1700 hrs , the kitchen
at 1600 hrs. Closed at weekends. |
