Charming little gem at Nørrebro. A hybride between a restaurant and a bar. For Danish reading it…read moresay in the name of the place. Directly translated it is Eat/Bar. And it is also playing with the meaning spisebar/spiselig, which is edible.
The concept is straightforward, but it is also very narrow. They got two main dishes and a dessert for the week. One main with and one with out meat. For starters they got a lot of different charcuteri and cheeses. You can combine all the dishes as you like. The beaten track is 1-2 starters, a main, and dessert. You could also go the tapas way with a lot of starters and maybe a dessert.
We were two, we went for four starters, a main, and we had to skip dessert, because we were full.
Beverages are also very few, but selected with much care. 2-6 different aperitif, sour cocktails, bubbles, white wines, red wines, avecs, direstives, tap beer, bottled beer, and some soft drinks. They do all sorts of coffee.
We tried comte cheese, chorizo sausage, duck rillette, and some beef for starters. All served with very nice light sourdow bread and different yummi toppings. Appel jam for the cheese, fennel mayo for the sausage, mustard for duck, and mayo with roasted nuts for the beef. Everything was a special and out of the ordernary. Next time we will do the tapas thing.
We got hot dogs for the main dish. They were done with a delightful twist. Smoked tomato ketchup, a very good sausage, pickled Jerusalem artichokes, and mustard on a brioche. Wauv, it was good.
You are seated at old school tables. They easy have room for two, but the also seat four a those tables. It is to much. Tables are also very close to each other. The also have very long table for bigger parties, or guests with out reservation.
They play loud but good music, and around nine a DJ starts the party. The restaurant turns into a bar.
The service was polite and very helpful. Maybe they are a bit understaffed, because waiting could be a bit long. They are nearly forgiven, because of the prices under normal for Copenhagen.
The bathrooms are small, and they needed a bit cleaning.
I have to deduct a star from the perfect five, because of waiting time, sitting very close, and the bathrooms.
