Is there anything better than a food blog? The recipes, the pictures. Oh, the pictures. If done right, there is nothing more enticing than a well photographed plate of food (am I alone here?).
Copenhagen’s recent renaissance of gourmet food has also brought about an influx of talented food writers, all with their own particular angle. This Scandi Six covers the food bloggers that we go to daily for dinner (and dessert!) inspiration.
Note: Some of these blogs are in Danish. You can break out your best dictionary, Google Translate the whole thing, or use it as a opportunity to practice! Or you can just stare longingly at the pictures, whatever works.
