The Food in Denmark

Denmark's food culture is more than just seafood (give the traditional pickled herring a try, though). There's the kolde bord (cold buffet) for lunch, Frikadeller (meatballs), Hakkebøf (chopped meat patties), Pølser (hot long sausages), and many other dishes with typical food in Denmark.

Apart from seafood, the culture around Danish food has become much more diversified in recent years, and you can eat any kind of food, really - especially in the cities. If you want to make some typical Denmark food at home, visit the About.com Scandinavian Food site!
