Torvehallerne is one of the top ten places to visit in Copenhagen. It has a wonderful eclectic…read moreselection from food to cheese to wine to sweets. I must say the markets in Europe are world class when compared to the markets in the United States.
Torvehallerne was bustling with customers ordering glasses of wine and plenty of pintxos.
Pintxos means small snacks or tapas that come in a variety of delicious bites. There are always Patata bravas, diced potatoes served with a spicy red sauce and mayo, croquettes, shrimp with garlic, black olives mashed and served on toast.
Now, you might ask why am I ordering tapas in Denmark? Good question! Well, I really wanted to try a Vegan hot dog, hot dogs are a Danish specialty. There were no vendors serving them here.
Thus, I stuck to something that is second nature to me, tapas!
This bar is cute and cozy, the menu has just the right amount of options and the beer is great! The service is simply amazing; two gentlemen running the show: the cook is from Milan and there is a server. Heres what I ordered:
1. Potata Bravas: hot, spicy with a side of mayo and red sauce.
2. Croquettes: served with a side of mayo
3. Shrimps in garlic: loads of garlic and red pepper, flavorful served with bread to dip
4. San Miguel beer ( small): San Miguel Beer refers to San Miguel Pale Pilsen, a Filipino pale lager and flagship beer of the San Miguel Brewery, loved the taste, ordered two.
The atmosphere is lively and both cook and server worked hard to ensure meals were prepared well.
When In Copenhagen be sure to check this market; you will not be disappointed!
As they say in Denmark, spis, which is Mangia!
