    First time discovering an open face sandwich. Where has this been all my life? It's genius. Less…read morecarbs since it's only one slice of bread. Stack on more of the best part on top and keep layering it up. The options of combinations are limitless.

    On my way out of Malmö back to Copenhagen, I had wanted to try some smörrebröd. Traditionally,…read moresmörrebröd (Smørrebrød) is Danish in origin, meaning "bread and butter". Basically, it's an open faced sandwich, topped with a few layers of Pålæg (on-lay) from any variety of ingredients. The common factor is it's mainly on rye bread. This shop (Freda) is located in Malmö Centralstation. Convenient, quick, and delicious. It was also affordable. I don't know how accurate my assumptions are, but when I think of Scandinavia, I think of pickled herring (marinerede sild), so thinking this would be the best representation or perhaps traditional of the smörrebröd, I chose this for my first taste. On a slice of rye, there was a small layer of thin potatoes, topped by sliced hard-boiled egg, 4 pieces of pickled herring, garnished with chopped red, white and green onion. The herring was pickled nicely, and had a soft tart taste to it. It meshed with the other toppings nicely and I enjoyed it. It convinced me I had to try it again, other flavors, while I was back in Copenhagen. The one piece of smörrebröd cost about $3, and I also ordered a sparkling water. Service was great, super fast, and I was soon on my way to the train track.

    Everything was great- food, service, cocktails…read more One of my favorite restaurants in the world

    Heard about it & passed it many times in the past year & on a Tuesday night it was time to see what…read morethe hype was all about. It was packed/fully booked. Our choices for dinner (day before reservation) were seating at 6:15 or earlier or 9:15 or later so reservations well in advance are recommended. We started with cocktails (& they had a few creations) & had a "Buried in Sand" and a "Holy Mule-" Both excellent! Our server was helpful & made some wonderful suggestions once she found out it was our first visit. All the dishes (small & large) are great for sharing. As it seemed a staple of the menu (that changes daily) as well one of their specialties we decided to start with the Bastard Planka. A nice variety of house cured ham, salami, chorizo, pate & pickles-one of the best I've ever had. Also ordered the Klemmings Oysters as our second starter. So fresh, salty & exquisite! For main we ordered the Cod & the Munka Pork (as Pork is their specialty). Cod was cooked to perfection and the Pork had a crust that took it to another level. Both dishes were amazing! We finished with the Pistachio Ice Cream and Paris -Brest. Loved them both but the Paris-Brest is a must try! My only regret is not getting here sooner. Wonderful vibe with great service! They also have a bar area (open kitchen) where you can grab a seat to try some of the entrees or just have a cocktail, beer or glass of wine if they are fully booked. Will definitely be back. Michelin rating well deserved!

I thought it was AMAZING! So fresh, so tasty, and so rich with flavor. There was a nice kick to the sauce and it made the dish all that much better. This restaurant was an experience and definitely worth it to make the trip. Service: 5/5 - Super friendly and welcoming staff. Ambiance: 4/5 - The area was a secluded and not so populated warehouse/commercial district. It's not the greatest but the space for this restaurant is very clean.
