Food is life, A vegan trip to copenhagen

Food of the season. Organic. Innovative. These are just a few terms that can be used to describe the gastronomic diversity in Copenhagen. Ten years ago, few people were familiar with Nordic cuisine. That has changed significantly. Copenhagen is developing into one of the leading gastronomic destinations.

The best bistro cafés can be found not far from Strøget (which means “street” in Danish), but we weren’t in the red-light district like here on Langstrasse in Zurich, Strøget is the large pedestrian zone in Copenhagen that leads through the beautiful city center. The high street is home to pretty much every fashion label in the world. In the huge Stella
Mccartney Shop
as a reward for the long “dash-walking”, we spent a long time there: Stella Mccartney, like her father Paul Mccartney, has long advocated a vegan lifestyle and campaigns for animals, for example.
At Peta
. For this reason, she also produces all her shoes, belts and accessories from the most beautiful and sustainable materials such as the best breathable
leatherette and wool
from cheerful sheep with a farm patent.

The side streets of the “Strich” are always good for little surprises and so you will not only find 42° Raw in one of these alleys, but also many other small cafés and restaurants.

But we were more interested in the green sushi Although it is not purely vegan, there is a Chef’s Choice vegan menu on the menu, which, with 5 courses, was simply fantastic and damn tasty:

Second course: Dragen Avocado Roll:

Only one restaurant could top the green Shuhi for us, so we went for brunch once and then for lunch the next day:

The Botaniq
firefly Garden.

We also met Arnaud Hauchon, the owner of Botaniq, in person. Before the Copenhagen restaurant, Arnaud had already worked as a vegan chef all over Europe, he was even once at the
Hiltel
in Zurich;-)
