I love to cook, but sometimes I'm lazy. Planning and shopping can be fun, but sometimes, for a…read moreweeknight dinner, inspiration is hard to find and you really don't feel like throwing a frozen pizza in the oven or cooking spaghetti. Grab'n'Cook is for those nights. The offer is unique, as far as I have seen in Copenhagen: You can buy the ingredients for a meal, together with a recipe to prepare it at home. They have 8-10 dishes on offer, most of which are available for a single person, but they also have a "family bag" for 4. Needless to say, you can of course buy multiple portions. The choice of recipes is in line with the current trend of "everyday gourmet food", meaning that they are striving to offer their customers something they wouldn't usually make, but still not too crazy for a normal dinner. Prices start at 45DKK per person, the family bag costs 135DKK for 4. I have tried both the malt dough pizza with potatoes, bacon and brie and the risotto with mushrooms, and I really enjoyed both. The pizza especially was spectacular. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, neither of the recipes took longer than 30min to prepare and cook, and the result was yum. What I really like about Grab'n'Cook is that you avoid throwing out ingredients, as everything is measured and counted. You don't end up buying a whole net of onions or an entire bottle of wine just because you need some for the risotto. I would like to come back and try more dishes, as most of them sound absolutely delicious, and I would definitely recommend Grab'n'Cook!

I wish I could rate it higher. This week's menu had mousakka, a favorite dish for me. What did it…read morecome out to be? A bunch of small danish potatoes tossed together with couple baked eggplants and a strange mixture of ground and stew beef mixture. Side dish to it was cabbage tatziki. Please don't call this dish mousakka, just adding the spices doesn't make it real. A big disappointment. And who has ever heard of cabbage tatziki? A danish invention for sure. The chicken meal was ok, focaccia was in fact good. There you go 3 stars basically for their bread. Not going back. Cofoco is a much better option.

After a long day of sightseeing we wanted to relax in our airbnb apartment and have a home cooked meal without the extra work of shopping or taking our tired little ones to a restaurant. We had 4 different dishes (fish, sausage, chicken), as well as the salad and all of them were wonderfully fresh and delicious. The sauces were great too, and we used the free pancake batter for breakfast the next morning. The staff were friendly and accommodating and explained every dish to us. A wonderful find!

I absolutely love the concept of this store. I have been here multiple times to grab food for…read moredinner on days where I just don't want to cook but still want yummy food for dinner. Basically, they have prepared food that isn't cooked yet but just needs 15-20 minutes in the oven for 220 degrees in the oven and it's done. Brilliant. Their food is super yummy too! Their cannelloni dish is SO SO good it should be illegal. Seriously. My mouth is way too happy when I get that dish. I highly recommend trying it. Their focaccia bread is also super tasty! I would stop by here a lot more often if 2 things happened: 1: They were cheaper! It cost 90-110 kr. for a dish. Which I think is just a bit too expensive for 1 dish personally. 2: They need more vegetarian dishes. They currently only have the cannelloni dish which isn't much to chose from.

One late afternoon this week I found myself at Torvehallerne after a coffee date, with no idea what…read moreto make for dinner. Luckily, I'd walked by the Homemate stand earlier, so I decided to try it out. The concept is simple - they have portion-sized prepared meals that require about 15 minutes to finish cooking at home. That gives you all the benefits of a fresh, home cooked meal - just that someone has done all the chopping, marinating, and preparing for you! Having a sick boyfriend at home, I decided to go with the Italian minestrone soup, together with focaccia bread. That cost 115kr in total, which is super fair for a meal for two. At home, the bread simply needed to be baked for 15min, which was also the time it took to "assemble" the soup, which came in different containers. The instructions were easy to follow, and in just three steps, we had a delicious, steaming hot minestrone soup, topped with gremolata and a drizzle of truffle oil. Both soup and bread were really good. The only minus was that the bread stuck to the container after baking, so it was a bit of a struggle to get it out. All in all a really positive experience, and I'll be trying some of their other dishes, too.

Wow, what a glorious day to sit out on the pier in Dragør! With the inconsistent summers of dear…read moreold Denmark, when it looks like summer, you better get your booty outside and carpe diem, amiright? And so, carpe the diem, we did. To make our meal at Cafe Blink even more worthwhile, we navigated some poorly marked bike paths from CPH all the way out there. 14 kilometers later - sore bums, and empty tummies - we sat down outside for some burgers. Now, I have definitely been on what seems like a never-ending hunt for the Best Burger in Copenhagen, and while I'm not sure I've found it quite yet, and technically Dragør isn't Copenhagen, I will say that Cafe Blink is pret-ty close in terms of meat quality. No lumpy tough meat can be found here, folks. A sad tragedy is that it comes with a side of guac that, if not for it being sort of green, I wouldn't even know it was actual guacamole. As a passionate lover of delicious chunky homemade guacamole, that was a bit of a bummer. Otherwise, the ambiance is great. Right on the edge of the old city of Dragør, with all sorts of life happening around you, it's a great way to spend a sunny summer day.
