Great local Danish food in a nice historical building located about 15 minutes away from Billund. We tried eating at Refborg without reservations but they were fully booked, luckily the kind lady working there recommended Folskov Kro and we came immediately after confirming they had a table for us.
It's in a lovely small town in the countryside of Denmark, the drive was beautiful and it was some of the cleanest farms and buildings I have ever seen.
Inside is charming and nice, we were the only ones eating around 5:45PM but it was more filled by the time we left. Overall the food was excellent as well as the staff who were kind and attentive and let me sample a dram of their local Gin. The one big thing for the kitchen to improve on is timing, the gap between starters and mains was awkwardly long and it was so long my wife got full and I had to force myself to eat her burger.
Bread and Butter: Both were excellent and you could tell a lot of care went into making them as well as the simple but effective plating.
Lumpfish Roe: Served on an interesting plate with the center elevated, the roe is stacked high like a traditional Danish open-face sandwich. Delicious and a very interesting and unique roe that is smaller and slightly more fishy.
Pumpkin Soup: Creme Fraiche, green oil, pumpkin seeds, and bacon. Tasted great of a cold day.
Poached white fish: garnished with dill and a cheese bases sauce, tasted very Scandinavian in a good way.
Pepper Burger: This was massive and the fries were prepped differently than the kids dinner. I normally dont like these kind of extra crispy fries but they were very good here. The burger was aldo good and tasted like pepper in a bold but not overpowering way. read more
