Pynten in Horsens
Danish cuisine Go on a tasting journey into the traditional Danish kitchen. This is solid, authentic food that really satisfies you and makes your taste buds rejoice.
In The Coastal Land the traditional Danish cuisine never goes out of fashion. Danish minced beef steak, fried pork with parsley, chicken, and asparagus tartlets, “smørrebrød” and “wienerbrød” – they have a special place in the Danish heart. The most famous Danish dish of all is probably crispy fried pork with boiled potatoes and parsley sauce, often served with pickled beetroots and cucumbers or gherkins. Try it at Dollys in Horsens, Pejsegården in Brædstrup or Korning Kro. Fried fish filet is another danish specialty. Get it a Pynten in Horsens, where you have a full view over the scenic marina. If your heart skips a beat when hearing about these classic dishes, then a trip to the charming island of Alrø is highly recommended. Here you find several great eateries with traditional Danish cuisine on
the menu. Enjoy the view of the inlet of Horsens Fjord, while you eat a beef tartare at Møllegården, a farm which is included in the writings of the famous Danish author Morten Korch. Or visit the hilly countryside (Bakkelandet) west of Horsens and stop by Det Gamle Posthus, or go to the top of The Coastal Land, to Norsminde Smokehouse & Seafood Restaurant. Both establishments serve the fish-dish “stjerneskud” (shooting star) – which is a favourite among guests. Are you more into cold plates, then visit Restaurant Møllers in Juelsminde or Mejeriet Tunø at the island of – well – Tunø, that both serve the culinary classic: Danish “smørrebrød”.
