"This is going to be a really really fun trip you guys, and we're excited to share it with you guys in the daily vlog format, so lets roll." "Urban House" "Boom!" "Can I take a peek in it?" Open that up. Just finished showering, gotten cleaned up and it's a beautiful evening here in Copenhagen so we are going to go get some dinner and coctails we're going to meet up with our hosts here and start checking out the food scene I'm hungry, I'm excited I'm looking forward to a good cocktail, lets roll. " So it's evening in Copenhagen, we just got off the plane, we just met up with Emil who's going to show us a pretty epic meal" "Ya so like I said earlier in the video this is all about exploring new Nordic cuisine which basically started in 2004 Some Danish chefs along with a bunch of other Nordic chefs made a manifesto about local, sustainable, organic food and so we're going to go dive into it Most people kind of associate that with the Noma restaurant but we're going to go check out some of the other guys who are making a wave and see what it's all about" "And stuff our faces" "And stuff our faces in the process!" "So what are you burning on top there?" "Juniper" "Wow, smells so good" "Here you have a Norwegian seal tail and a fried chicken foot, the foot you eat with the hands and only the skin and then of course a little fire with the burning Juniper which is only decoration" Marko:"So good, so delicate. Have you ever eaten a chicken foot before?" Alex:"I have not eaten a chicken foot before, I've seen chickens feet on chickens, but i haven't eaten one before soo..." Marko:"Chicken wings are like the hands and these are like the feet" Alex: "This is good, I might have just had some thumb there" Höst is a collaboration between local restauranteurs and Danish designers that was recently named the worlds best designed restaurant We ordered the three course tasting menu with dishes inspired by rural Danish cuisine and, surprisingly, a wine pairing that didn't break the bank Alex: "How do you say cheers?" Emil:"Skål" Alex:"SKÅL" Alex: "Is that because Vikings used to drink like made out of a skull? skål, like your skull, cranium and then they would just be like 'SKÅL' That happened" Emil:"Not with a skull no" Alex:"Aw man" Emil:"But it's a great story we should use that" Alex:"Well I thought it was real" Alex:"Bro, satiated?" Marko:"Oh my god that was really good introduction to new Nordic cuisine We saw kind of all the elements from the organic, sustaneable, local, the reinterpretation of old recipes" Alex:"How many dishes, it was like 5? Perfectly paired with the wine, and when that's done well there's really nothing that you could ever possibly complain about so we are going to put a night cap, we're going to go have a cocktail". Marko:"So ya we are going to a place right down the street it's in a building that used to be a pharmacy in the 1880's two years ago it was reconverted as a bar so we're gunna go learn a little bit more about new Nordic cocktails Alex: "By having a Cough Drop" Emil:"The bar's called Lidkoeb Lidkoeb means the deal you made when farmers traded cows or cattle on the markets when they shook hands they drank on it and that's a Lidkoeb" Alex:"So it's like you spit in your hand and shake?" Emil:"Exactly" Marko:"So we're going for another drink? -Yes. -Lidkoeb Marko:"If there is one way to adjust a jet lag, it's staying out late and getting cocktails" Alex:"Ayyyohh, got a taxi, nailed it" The concept behind Nordic Cocktails is the same as Nordic food Forging a unique style by drawing on local ingredients that speak to the culture after grabbing a couple of cocktails on the ground floor lounge, we went up two stories to the whiskey bar to meet the guys behind the drinks Bartender:"What we try to do when creating a new cocktail menu, of course is inspired by Noma which is a really good restaurant, we want to try and convert what they are doing into cocktails we want like four things of Denmark to be represented so the forrest, the farmyard and kolonihave, which is a house you have outside of the city where you grow a garden, and of course the ocean we wanted to do it out of, out of emotion or experience" Marko:"Ok" Alex:"Is that badger from here?" Bartender:"Yep" Alex:"Local badger" Bartender:"Actually Ura, killed it with his bike Just outside right here. Ura:"No big deal, it's just a badger" Marko:"We don't need no stinking badger" Bartender:"We decided to mount it and get it in here" Mark:"And the glasses?" Bartender:"The glasses are Ura's he has really poor eye sight so.." Alex:"Is that how come you ran over the badger, you didn't see it? And those are the glasses?" Ura:"Too much whiskey man, too much whiskey" Alex:"Well that was an amazing first evening in Copenhagen and if tonight is any indication for what the rest of the trip is going to be like, I think we are in for an amazing adventure" Marko:"I've had a great time so far, we had our first sampling of new Nordic cuisine, we had some Nordic cocktails, all were amazing, we're staying in Copenhagen tomorrow Some really fun stuff happening so tune in for that video and tune in for the rest of the week!
