Morgenstedet – Delicious veggie food at Christiania

Just walking through Christiania is guaranteed to open up your eyes to a different and diverse experience. The contrasts are more than evident; worn down buildings, beautiful natural surroundings, the many different types of people, young and old, hippie and punk, drunks and pushers, artists and skaters. Christiania has many colours – and many hidden gems to explore.

One of them is a small, cozy restaurant, a bit out of the way for the general tourist, but not impossible to reach either. Coming through Pusher Street passing by funny sounding places like “The Opera”, “The Moon Fisher”, “Woodstock” and other interesting scenes, finally you will arrive at the gates of a lovely little hidden house on a corner – sounding the lovely name “Morgenstedet”.

Entering through the skewed garden gate you will come into the small, but very warm and charming little restaurant, that will meet you with a well known smell of good homemade food. I can’t think of a more relaxed and cosy place to enjoy a filling, tasty vegetarian meal than here.

There is something wholly unpretentious about it – as goes for most of Christiania. The food is wonderful, prepared with organic ingredients only. The bread is a delic

acy in its own right. Brought in daily from the famous bakery “Lagkagehuset” located at Christianshavn square.

Morgenstedet means “The Morning Place” – which by the way has no reference to the opening hours which are noon till 21:00 daily.
