Okay, so now you have reached the point where you cannot avoid the open-faced rye bread sandwich any longer. This is Danish food culture; this is the dish we are, by far, most proud of – kind of the national dish. You can find smørrebrød at most lunch places and many restaurants have made it their speciality. Aamanns have several restaurants around the city, but I think Aamanns Replik is the best one, at least this restaurant has the best location. It is located at Skuespillerhuset (The Royal Playhouse) next to Nyhavn and the harbour. The restaurant faces the water with big panorama windows where you can sit and watch all boats and ferries sailing by. It will also give you the opportunity to see the playhouse from the inside. Have the fried plaice, that is the best one. Hungry people can definitely go for two dishes. I would recommend you come here for lunch, but Aamanns Replik is a little bit fancy, meaning you shouldn’t show up in shorts.
