Mit lille køkken i Paris - Launch of Danish LPK book

Last week I headed to Copenhagen to promote the Danish version of LPK (out on 26.09.12). It was a quick visit but I did manage to fit a "Smushi" (Sushi sized Smørrebrød = buttered bread) at the Royal Café with the lovely Brittany from the House that Lars built.

Not your typical Scandanavian minimalist interiors here (giant paper flower made by Brittany).

I got treated to a lovely dinner at Radio (owned by Claus Meyer who is also co-owner of Noma).

Scallops with apple jelly, kohlrabi and beetroot spaghetti

Fish with pumpkin carpaccio and a "very-hard-to-find-Danish-berry".

Smoked and candied celeriac.

Lamb with black garlic and root vegetables.

Many dishes and wines but my favourite was the dessert.

Dessert: Camomile ice cream, sweet barley and white chocolate crispies.

The following day it was a morning packed with interviews followed by  "a very French lunch" interview and an afternoon tea interview (Note to publicists: interviews + delicious food = happy journalists and interviewee).

Soft sponge with chocolate mousse topped with berries and a marzipan wrap.

View from rooftop staff cantine at the publishers.

A journalist was so kind and gave me two delicious Danish apples. Now that's my kind of souvenir!

Crunchy, crisp and not too sweet - exactly how I like my apples.
