The story

Møntergade sits on the corner of Møntergade and Gammel Mønt in the old city.2 At lunch the kitchen serves classic smørrebrød, from herring and fish to meat and warm dishes, with daily specials on the board and a card that changes every month.2 In the evening the room turns into a brasserie cooking Danish and French produce of the season, closing with desserts or cheese from the trolley.2 The wine list runs to 65 pages, from Grand Cru Burgundy to small growers.2
