Celebrating, Shenanigans & We Are Almost There!

I’m STILL celebrating my birthday from June! Why have one birthday celebration when you can stretch the fun out for months? Ha ha! This time I headed into Copenhagen with my Bestie Erika for a champagne lunch at Ravage Bistro, on Kongens Nytorv, right by Nyhavn harbour. I’ve been coming here for many, many years and I just love the buzz of the place, always great service and fabulous food. As you know, Erika is my partner in crime for shenanigans in the city!

Ravage have a great breakfast menu, and all the bistro classics for lunch and dinner. Erika chose the salade nicoise which she said was as good as the one she had in Nice! Very pretty plate.

A colourful salad featuring mixed greens, crispy bacon, anchovies, croutons, red onion, and two soft-boiled eggs on a white plate with decorative rim.

I had the beef tartare. My go-to favourite!

A plate featuring a variety of ingredients including a raw egg yolk, capers, chopped red onions, herbs, mayonnaise, and a small portion of a meat mixture, set against a backdrop of a candle and other dishes.

And we shared a portion of fries (forgot to take a photo but they were as good as my granny’s chips!). And, of course, they always give you a basket of bread and butter. Look at that cute butter package!

A basket containing slices of bread and a butter packet, with two glasses of sparkling wine in the background and a hand with pink nail polish visible.

We washed it all down with a chilled glass of birthday bubbles. And we even had a teeny tiny space for dessert!

Erika went for the lemon tart, delicious! That’s usually my first choice too but…

I couldn’t resist the pavlova with fresh cream and red berries! Nom! (Did you see my post about haggis and pavlova earlier this week?!)

A dessert featuring a meringue base topped with whipped cream and an assortment of fresh berries, including strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and red currants, sprinkled with powdered sugar.

And your weekend mission? Do something nice for YOU. Meet a friend, go somewhere you love, have the nice lunch, read your book, go for a swim. Whatever makes you happy!

The weekend is nearly here, so let’s make sure we’re actually enjoying it! Skål, as we say in Denmark, cheers!
