We had two exceptional meals in Copenhagen, one was at Maple Casual Dining. Also an easy walk from our excellently located Radisson Royal Copenhagen.

Somehow I’ve gotten to a place where dinner out has to start with champagne or a margarita and this spicy margarita got my attention. Those are dried Chili threads. Loved it but one is the limit.

I started with mussels in cream, white wine and chili. Mussels are my absolute favourite starter and these were among the best ever.

David had the asparagus soup with goat cheese and truffle oil. He said it was the best asparagus soup ever. We had high hopes for the rest and weren’t disappointed.

For an entree I chose the Seabass. Seared and served with new potatoes and mixed salad. It was pretty well perfect.

David uncharacteristically raved about the risotto. It was delicious. I’m a bit done with truffle oil but they showed restraint at Maple and it was great.

A great choice in Copenhagen. I’d recommend reservations.

One of the best in 2 weeks of incredible meals was at this Korean wine bar in Copenhagen. Right around the corner from the Radisson Royal Copenhagen we fully enjoyed the great wine program and the easy walk home after. Choose a bottle (or 2) from their retail wine store and have it served with the amazing food.

The menu is mostly made up of shareable snacks with a couple of larger plates to for 2, we did our best to eat through the menu.

The Ssamjang Guksu – cold noodle salad with spicy peanut sauce had us craving it for days, wishing we’d ordered it for dessert.

Grilled Frigetello peppers were stuffed with shrimp and rice were great and the sauce was crazy delicious. We were spooning it up.

Another sauce we couldn’t get enough of was on the King Oyster Mushroom and rice cake skewers. I’d go again right now if I could.

We went all the way and had the grilled mackerel for 2 and the Korean fried chicken for 2. Both were served with rice and side veggies. We wanted to add kimchi but they were sold out and the latest batch was a week off. Another reason to go back.

If you like spicy food that’s beyond extraordinary and you’re going to Copenhagen don’t miss Propaganda Kitchen.
