My mystery Smorrebrod selection |

Smørrebrød...
Yesterday I went to get Smørrebrød for lunch. Smørrebrød is a very traditional Danish food, which usually consists of a buttered piece of rye bread with some type of topping. The toppings can be meat, fish, cheese, eggs, beets and pretty much anything else you can think of. We ended up going to a little pub near Stroget, unfortunately when you order Smørrebrød there you don't get to choose what kind of toppings you want...they just bring out whatever it is they've decided to make. We all got 3 Smørrebrøds. I got one with some kind of fish, another with pate and beets and one with some turkey, cabbage and pickles(I think...). The fish one was pretty good but a bit on the fishy side and Tess traded me her salami and mustard for my beet and pate one. The salami one was really good. The cabbage was awful... It was a very nice, and very Danish experience but I will not be returning to that pub for Smørrebrød. Next time we will have to go somewhere that you can pick out what kind you want instead of the mystery selection we received.
In the evening we went to a men's handball game. It was much more intense and even more entertaining than women's handball. The guys jump so high when they are shooting, its crazy! Our team,FIF (in the white) was ahead for a good chunk of the game but ended up losing by 2 points in the last few minutes. We'll get 'em next time!
