Community dining is part of the Copenhagen culture and we were so happy to try it out. Tickets were…read morecheap and the community very inviting. Issue was we got seated next to a huge party of 10 who didn't even try to converse with us. We were looking forward to speaking with locals and feel like a community but instead we were interrupting a party by sitting at their table. Food was vegetarian based that night so it was a big salad and rice with rolls. Not bad but for people with kids this option was not enough food. Dessert was not included which isn't a problem. Great concept and fresh food but it wasn't as enjoyable as I thought it would be. I'll give it a try again though!

An absolutely amazing meal every time I attend. This is one of the most unique dining experiences…read more The food is delicious, affordable, and beautifully presented. Beyond this, everyone eats in a family style and is encouraged to sit in a communal style so you meet new people every time. Each time I have attended, I have met a new group of people from another spot in the world, each with a unique outlook on life.

One of the best prides I've ever visited !!!…read more I went to a few events before the pride. I was a bit sceptical because you never know how good it is. But actually it was very interesting. The lectures were good. I also did the free walking tour (a special gay version for the pride) and it was really good and fun. The pride self was good, but not the best one. It was a bit boring. I was hoping to see more colors :) The parties were amazing. All over the city people were partying. I really had so much fun. A minus: there pride town / centre could have been better. It was on the town hall square. But somehow I was missing something. Again: one of the best pride ever !!!

So it's December and dark and I'm day-dreaming of long days and dock jumping at Islands Brygge…read more Not to stereotype or anything, but this is definitely where the beautiful Danes hang out during the summer the second it's above 18 degrees (celsius). The families tend to stay closest to the gated bathing areas (havnebadet), while the 20/30-somethings are in the middle near the "badebro" just after Kulturhuset. All areas are jam-packed on the warm summer afternoons, and by mid-August the ground is basically dirt and covered with cigarette buds, but it's still my all-time favorite place to spend a warm summer afternoon. Hourly dips in the canal (points for fanciest dives!) are an absolute must. Don't forget your beer, én-gangs-grill, and pølser, if you want the true Danish experience. Officially counting down the days until summer 2014.
