    No. 12 - Brest
    Ellisiv B.

    Make crêpes, not war!! Especially if the crêpes are as good as the ones at La Galette. La Galette was the choice for dinner with four other pancake-hungry friendos one monday evening. The place was half full when we entered and stayed that way all evening. The music was pop-ish and relaxed, but would have been nice if it perhaps had been a tad more french. I'm not thinking of Edith Piaf style here, but frenching it up a little bit, would definitely add to the atmosphere, which was already quite french, with the waiters speaking the language with each other and the menu being in both Danish and French. Now, let's talk about the food. We ordered a different selection of dinner crêpes. I had No. 12, a dish called Brest, which consisted of a pancake with an egg, ham, tomatoes and a small salad. It was crunchy and soft in all the right places and super, super nice! At first we didn't think we could handle dessert crêpes, but after a little while and some looks at the menu, we changed our minds. I shared a crêpe called Belle Hélène with my friend and it was even better than the dinner crêpe. A delicious mixture of crunchy pancake, sweet vanilla ice cream, a soft and sugary pear and a dash of cream and chocolate sauce, made this a dream of a crêpe! Perhaps the best one I've ever had.

    Galette nr 17

    A little place on a little street that resembles a small alley in a small town in France, that's how I feel about this place. Just across the street from another French restaurant (L'education Nationale), this place is also packed with French people during lunch time apart from the few Danish chatters here and there. That alone gives somewhat authentic environment at first. When we got there during lunch time, they have a lunch offer of galette nr 9 or 20 + dessert pancake nr 31, 32 or 33 and drink for 110 kr. It's pretty good deal considering most of the galettes are 70kr up (apart from the dessert ones). I ended up not taking the deal and chose nr 17 instead - Locronan that consists ham, egg, cheese, tomatoes, bacon and salad while my boyfriend got lunch offer (nr 20 - spinach and goat cheese - the vegetarian option). I have never had galette before so I didn't quite know what to expect only that they're like huge pancakes, or glutenfri pancakes more like. I like pancakes in any form from any country, from the thick fluffy breakfast American pancakes, to the usual French crepe, even the sour-dough injera from Ethiopia, so I figured out that I would love galette. ...and which I did! My pancake arrived and despite my initial doubt that I would leave the place hungry (after all, isn't it ONLY a pancake?), that thing was huge! My boyfriend pointed out that mine was not probably authentic at all since I got bacon on mine, but hey - I don't care. Anything is better with bacon, isn't it? Once we demolished our galettes, the waiter asked if we were ready for the dessert. I was groaning when my boyfriend offered me to share, mostly because I was propped full with my pancake but the dessert that came with the lunch offer was quite tiny so we shared the thing. All in all, it was a very nice experience to eat galette. It was my first time and would definitely not be the last. Although I'm somewhat disappointed that the lunch offers only have two options, but if you like it, it is a good enough offer for the money. If not, just order the usual pancake, you'd love it anyway. Service is friendly and efficient and no complaints. I ordered tap water (that says in the menu that it's 10kr but we didn't get charged anyway). 200 DKK for two people for lunch is what I call a good deal.

    A small hole in the wall creperie, this is the perfect, dessert, snack, meal, nightcap. I loved this place. Came here for a small dessert after dinner. Left here blown away. Ambience: Cozy, smaller restaurant, with some outdoor seating, this place is comfortable. The staff are friendly. The owner (I assume) is a Canadian fella, who is really helpful in understanding what "chantilly" means. Food: Excellent ingredients, and sounhd logic in the preparations. Simpler crepes can be combined with ice cream, and small modifications can be made. The menu is HUGE, and the crepes allow for satisfaction, not overdone. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting, for a change, or for something reliable in quality. In case you didn't already know, chantilly means whipped cream.

    This place is so cute! Such a quick and relaxed spot for lunch. The crepes are simple, yet tasty, and they have a amazing variety; there's something for almost everyone. We really enjoyed ourselves, only complaint is it wasn't warm enough to eat outside

    Nice spot for lunch! Our crepes were yummy and so was the cider. The location is quaint, being tucked in off the main street.

    Came here for the schnitzel, which was super lightly breaded and tender, delicious brown butter…read moresauce with umami from the anchovies and capers in the sauce. The accompanying potato salad was light and vinegar/olive oil based rather than mayo based, which was a nice contrast to the rich brown butter sauce. Ambiance is super cute, exposed beams and brick, the old Noma spot. Great date night. Waiters were friendly and recommended their cider (specifically made for Barr) which reminded us of a sour + an orange wine. Spaeztle with chanterelle mushrooms was very savory, a little too rich for my liking but my partner loved it. One minor issue we had was the brown crab dish's crab was overpowered by the bitter char on the romaine lettuce, and I thought too little crab per bite.

    The biggest draw here is probably the location. Being in Noma's former space naturally creates…read morecertain expectations, but it's important to walk in understanding that this is not Noma, and the experience doesn't try to be. Overall, we had an enjoyable meal, but nothing truly stood out. The food was good, not great. We ordered the schnitzel, which was perfectly serviceable, but not particularly memorable or elevated in a way that justified the buzz surrounding the restaurant. It felt more like a solid neighborhood meal than a destination dining experience. The service was where the experience fell a bit flat for us. This isn't unique to this restaurant, but we've found much of Scandinavia's dining culture to be less hospitality-driven than what we're accustomed to elsewhere. The staff was polite enough, but there wasn't much warmth, engagement, or effort to create a memorable experience. It felt more transactional--food arrives, you're checked on occasionally, and that's about it. The atmosphere is pleasant, and we certainly didn't leave disappointed. We enjoyed our evening and had a nice meal. That said, given the history of the space and the reputation that comes with it, we left feeling that the experience didn't quite live up to the expectations. Worth a visit if you're curious about the location, but not a place I'd go out of my way to revisit.

    This is a surprising little gem in the downtown area. Surprising because it's wedged between a…read morecomedy club and a handful of so so cafés and eateries that prey on unassuming tourists, but also because the light and elegant Northern European decor doesn't quite prepare you for the authentic French bistro fare you're about to experience. The owners have a serious culinary pedigree, and don't disappoint. I've been here a few times with my mother and some friends, respectively and had seriously satisfying meals every time. Love the chèvre chaud, an old favorite, and the steak with bearnaise is always grilled to absolute juicy perfection. The sleeper hit is the salad; I just really really love a well made salad which is super simple and crunchy but with that thick and tangy mustard vinaigrette that complements everything on the plate. I haven't yet tried all the desserts, since I always go for the crème brûlée. So far I've had it paired with different sorbets, super yummy and true to the fruits, but alas I'm a purist, and really don't want anything cold and tangy interfering with my favorite pudding. Luckily my companions have been helpful in not letting anything go to waste. :) If you're ever in downtown CPH and hungry, keep this place in mind. They even have French "pizza" if you just need a quick bite during your lunch break. The staff are all super friendly and seem to genuinely love having you there. Very un-Danish in that respect. ;)

    Their name translates to "Three Little Pigs"…read more Boy, did we eat like we were! ;-) Being part of the Cofoco chain of restaurants, Les Trois Cochons gives you so much value for your money. (what?! is that possible in Copenhagen?!) After sorting out the confusion of the ordering process, we found that dinner is a pre-fixe menu of 3 courses meant to be shared between two people. Hold on. If you're thinking, we're supposed to SHARE dishes at a French restaurant where courses are traditionally small to begin with? (we were proven wrong, in fact, we had leftovers) The food is casual and uncomplicated. We had foie gras to start, simply salted and served with pickled plums and grilled bread. I can't get foie gras in California so it's always a priority when I travel! For our main course, a very hearty braised pork shank with carrots, leeks and root vegetables. This comes with mashed potato and French green beans. Dessert was a divine assortment of molten chocolate cake, creme brulee and ice cream. You'll be opening your belt a notch to accommadate your expanded waistline ;-) The street Værnedamsvej is lined with French cafes, small specialty stores and this restaurant seamlessly folds itself into the mix being a former butcher shop. A little piece of Paris right here in Copenhagen. Tres bon!

    Really polite and nice staff and the food was delicious! 10/10 in terms of interior designread more
