San Marzano Tomatoes: Why They Matter for Our Pizza
Let me tell you about the most important ingredient on our pizza. It is not the flour. It is not the cheese. It is the tomato. A Roman pizza has only a few things on it. And when you have so little to hide behind, every single ingredient matters. There is no heavy sauce to […]
Italian Antipasti in Copenhagen: 5 Classics to Start
Let me tell you a secret about the Italian meal. The best part is not always the pizza. The best part is often what comes before it. Antipasti is Italian for “before the meal”, and this is where an evening truly begins. The first plates to share while you settle in, pour the first glass […]

Let me tell you about the perfect evening. Not a special occasion. Not an anniversary or a birthday.

Italian Restaurant Culture: A Dane’s Guide to Navigating It
I have lived in Copenhagen for over ten years now, and I love this city. But I still remember how strange some things felt when I first arrived from Italy. The way people ate dinner at 18:00. The way a meal could be over in forty minutes. The way asking for the bill was somehow […]
