    This place is AMAZING. We went three days in a row - also because we know it's safe for my 4 year…read moreold with multiple food allergies. On that note, their flavors change and they only have one soft ice (soft serve) flavor per week. The week we went, a good amount were egg free and nut free, but they couldn't guarantee there was no cross contamination because they use the same machine. However, soft ice was safer and - thankfully - my kid was okay with that. But they were really nice and he got a tiny sample of chocolate to see if he had any reactions. He didn't! The vanilla soft serve is great! You can see the vanilla seeds interspersed and it wasn't too sweet. Perfect for little kids. I tried my share of flavors including: Licorice - I don't like licorice, but I like trying new things. If you haven't noticed yet, the Danes love licorice. I tried a sample and... it's actually quite good! It wasn't overwhelming and even complemented the ice cream. Ask for a sample and don't knock it off if you see it when you're there. You never know until you try it! Sea buckthorn sorbet - this is a bit hard to describe. Sort of like loquat but not? Subtly sweet and a slight tang at the end but nothing like I had before - but perfectly refreshing as a sorbet. Lychee - this was delicious. Absolutely delicious. It didn't hit me in the face but was almost floral? I enjoyed this one a lot! Mint chocolate - the description mentioned After Eights and mint. Lo and behold - you can see the mint leaves in the ice cream! Color me impressed! Overall, I love how they used real ingredients and how I didn't need to drink water after. You can really taste the flavors and it's really great ice cream and soft serve. Definitely a solid option for ice cream. They also have another location but I didn't make it to that one, sadly. The place has a bench on one side, counter seats on the other, and 2 smaller tables outside. It seemed clean and the staff I met three times were very helpful!

Named after the Østerbro area in which it is located as well as, ironically, owner Cathrine Østerberg whose knowledge of exotic produce comes by way of a family that launched Østerberg International Fruit Company in the 1970s, it was sometime around 17h00 on a Wednesday between lunch at Geranium and dinner at Alchemist that a visit was paid to the small shop with limited signage, the July weather seeing a few locals on a bench outside with several more lined up inside for a taste. Just about to celebrate its third anniversary, an opening collection of flavors now increased to a catalogue of nearly one hundred options with the small batch method making precisely a dozen available each day by the scoop, it was after a brief wait and several translations by the bearded clerk that samples were requested, the spoonfuls far larger than those typically presented in Italy or the United States fully coating the mouth in flavors like Lychee and Salted Licorice that were very tempting while Elderflower a bit too floral and Sea Buckthorn far more concentrated than the berry itself with a linger not unlike Passion Fruit. Charging 24DKK for one scoop, 30 for two and 36 for three, a fairly significant deal for those who wish to enjoy more at less than one US Dollar per additional flavor, it was after a few more tastes that the decision was made to go with a freshly made Waffle Cone topped in a complimentary trio, the Straciatella not unlike Gelato in terms of its density with Chocolate Chunks spread throughout while the Coffee and Caramelized White Chocolate was similar in texture with bold roasty notes, the light green Pistachio proving to be almost on par with that at Milan's Il Massimo with tiny grounds of the Nuts adding a subtle heterogeneity to the otherwise satin mouthfeel.
