If you love feeding your mind and stomach, this walking food tour that blends history and tasting is for you! You´ll learn not only WHAT people eat in Denmark, but WHY. You will wind your way through the 400 year old Christianshavn neighbourhood (my home) as I reveal how the history of food IS the history of Copenhagen. This time travelling trip is peppered with al fresco tastings that help you learn how to taste the New Nordic way. Christianshavn is where NOMA (voted world´s best restaurant 4x) was born as a product of the "New Nordic Food Movement", ideas which transformed the food scene in Denmark over the past 15 years. The roots of NEW Nordic are based in thousands of years of OLD food history. This tour explores how food tech fuelled Viking voyages, how a fish made Copenhagen the capital, how the origins of Danish Pastry are partly maritime and how reconnecting to this heritage has helped to shape Copenhagen´s food scene today. Tasting secret powders, pickled herring, cinnamon pastry and smørrebrød will bring people and places, past and present to life - to which we will raise a glass to with a skål at a waterside pub as we finish.
