The Turning Chicken — Local services in Copenhagen Municipality

I’ve been in Copenhagen for almost a month and I was really not expecting this to be one of the best meals I’ve had here, but it was.

The man behind the counter was incredibly nice and helpful. Seriously one of the most delightful people I’ve met in CPH

I ordered a half chicken meal that came with a red cabbage salad, rice, fresh durum bread and a can of soda. Everything was good but the chicken was fantastic. Roasted perfectly with a crisp skin and moist meat it was delicious. All for about 115 DKK. Which cheaper than I would be able to get a similar meal at home in the states. (I love the food in CPH but it does tend to be a bit pricey with the VAT and all).

I will definitely be back!

I wish I’d thought to photo the food. But I’ll do...

It is a pleasure to live next door to Turning Chicken as it is some of the best and most reliable food you can get in all of Copenhagen. Their signature pulled chicken is perfectly seasoned and fits equally well into a salad or a durum. My go-to is the bowl with rice and chicken which is then filled with salads and amazing sauces. The fillings are plentiful, varied, and incredibly tasty. Additionally, they are incredible fast. If you get there and there is no queue (which is unfortunately rare these days due to it becoming increasingly popular), you can be out the door with your freshly-made food in hand in less than two minutes. The service is nothing short of exceptional and even when the place is busy, the guys behind the counter bring...

This was a great experience!! Do it. Do it!

Very genuine and friendly service, delish and fresh food, great size and price and clean restaurant with many seating options inside and out.

The only less good thing was that I saw a worker drop the foil (that you wrap the durums in) on the floor and pick it up. He ripped a bit off and I thought he would scrunch it up...but no...he put the next orders bread on it. Whilst we might do this at home...you can't afford to do that in a restaurant!!

Otherwise everything was great. Interesting selection of drinks and also a coffee machine.

Funny to also see an old days scale as you enter...just if you want to see how many kilos of food...
