My friend recommended we eat here and it's very convenient for travelers. Location is right at the…read moremain bus hub and in Aarhus downtown, we rented a car to drive down from Billund and it is also walkable from many of the parking spaces downtown. They designed the inside to have multiple shipping containers used throughout and there is also nice natural lighting and plenty of seating throughout. There are also decently clean bathrooms here so its a good place for a pitstop. Because of the nature of this food hall you can try a variety of foods which is what we did. You order from wherever you want and you get a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready. Mormors Køkken: Traditional Danish food - just as your Danish grandmother would make them! Got the orange gravy, pork chunks, and sausage plate with rice. They offer "half portions" to sample but for us it was pretty much a full meal. Danyar Fish n Chips: Kids really wanted this and they had samples to try. Tasted OK, they are trying to do British style and the fries were good as well as the fish, just not as good as they are in the UK. Duck It: Had the duck boat which is pieces of duck in a fried potato shaped like a boat, this one was my wifes favorite.

Another great Street Food scene in Denmark that we sadly were not fully able to partake in…read morebecause...it was Whit Monday and after spending most of the day at ARoS, and literally everything else in the city being closed, we..we..we took our kiddo to go see Mission Impossible--The Final Reckoning. Sorry not sorry! The Danish movie going experience is (no surprise) so amazing. The have beer and the biggest candy selection you've ever seen, and we were all loaded up on popcorn and sugar and Tom Cruise, but our daughter, vaguely traumatized from watching the film, still wanted to grab some dinner. Which brings us back to Aarhus Street Food! Like Reffen, it's got an amazing vibe. There's a large outdoor space for boozing and hanging out and then there are several vendors indoors with a bunch of picnic benches in the middle set up almost like a beer garden. Our daughter chose unwisely: the "maki" option from Shogun sushi, a selection of very sad and supermarket-looking sushi. No matter, we were happy to be there to soak up the atmosphere and energy. Plenty of the other food around us looked really good and the place is just worth a visit of its own accord. Four stars.

Finding this little deli was one of the high points of my time in Aarhus. It's tucked away on a…read morelittle side street in Hasle, next to a great bakery as well. I loved stopping in and checking out all of the little smørrebrød. It was also a great place to practice some Danish. "Jeg vil gerne har en smørrebrød med røget laks, tak." On my final visit there, I discovered my favorite smørrebrød topping: smoked cheese. So delicious. And the smørrebrød is cheap, too! (Not always the case for Denmark.) I found this place a couple days before it was locked up for summer vacation, so I got only a little taste (quite literally) before they were closed for a few weeks. Fortunately I was in town long enough to be around for the re-opening, so I made sure to be there on that day. Anyway, if you're in the area, definitely check out this hidden gem.

My old go-to health food and organic supermarket, and probably the biggest one of its kind in…read moreAarhus. The good: very large selection of health food and supplements, all organic. If you want it, it's probably here, including stuff for special diets or allergies. The bad: pricey, in particular on organic foods, which have, since this store opened way back, found their way to supermarkets with lower prices. Not the best selection of organic produce, and what they have is often in not that great condition. Think bruised apples and squashed berries. Another thing I'm not crazy about is that I've heard them give out advice regarding supplements and alternative medicine that perhaps oversells the known effects. As a science nut and a bit of a skeptic, I'm not a fan of that. So not a bad place, but keep your critical sense about you.
