Madglad — Restaurant in Copenhagen Municipality

Many people refers to it as a Buffet/All You Can Eat, or at least, this is how I found it. It is not not. It is like a canteen.

You basically choose a main plate between a few (where I was there, 3), a side dish (that can be multiple things together) and a piece of bread.

They offer you free tap water but you can also buy other beverage there.

It has a fixed price of 95DKK per person, if you eat there.

After staying in Copenaghen for 4 days, this was absolutely the cheapest option I found to eat something that wasn’t a sort of sandwiches in some way.

We eat some curry meatball with rice and some sort of chili plate. Both were good, felt hand made, not industrial.

If you are after some cheap meals, give it a try!

Edit: Fun Fact, Pasta, it is NOT a side dish, please..respect...

The food this evening was Shepherds Pie and Italian bean stew. Bot dishes were very delicious - we preferred the pie over the stew - but it was a close call. You pay 110 DKK for a main meal which seems very fair. Definitely a place to visit when...

The food was super bland, didn't seem to have any spices. The leek pie didn't seem to contain leek, but loads of spinach. Despite asking if the risotto had cheese and mushrooms and getting a "no", he then poured parmigiano on a risotto with mushrooms in it. The chicken in the risotto was quite obviously not fresh made, it looked exactly like the kind you buy in a plastic packaging kn the super market. If you only want one kind of salad you get way less than if you choose several and the guy serving didn't seem like he wanted to be there, nor like he knew anything about the food he was serving.

The atmosphere itself was cosy but also kind of like a kindergarten? And it was so warm and...
