Sandesh moulds

Posted on December 19, 2015 by bombayhowrahdiningcar

These beautiful stone moulds from Aniruddha’s mother are used to shape the famous Bengali sweet sandesh (shondesh). And I’ve added my own non-Bengali touch to the sandesh I made by decorating them with colour 🙂

Det Lille Apotek or the Little Pharmacy is the oldest restaurant in Copenhagen. For us it's tied in second place with Cafe Florian in Venice as two of the oldest establishments we have dined at. The restaurant was frequented by Hans Christian Andersen and unknowingly we ended up sitting at the very table (no.5) that he would always sit at. The staff told us pretty much everything in the restaurant looked just the same as when he used to dine there :) We opted for the Holborn plate which came with Pickled Herring, Plaice and Roasted Pork served with accompaniments. The rye bread was served with duck lard! We ordered an egg and prawn smørrebrød and then balanced everything with a salad 😬 My love for pickled herring has grown over this holiday and the crumb coated Plaice was top notch! Can see why Hans Christian Andersen ate here 😌 #detlilleapotek #littlepharmacy #copenhagen #denmark🇩🇰 #danishfood #danishtradition #hanschristianandersen #oldestablishment #1720 #pickledherring #plaice #roastedpork #eggandprawn #ryebread #ducklard #bhdctravels #bhdcholidays #scandinavia

Our second 3 Michelin star experience today made me realize that these go well beyond just dining experiences alone. For us, these are as much to be treasured as a visit to a new city or the opportunity to see a fantastic exhibition or watch a play or performance. Geranium came highly recommended by friends and we chose it over Noma (!) An 18-course visual and sensory delight that lasted almost 4 hours. We experienced new flavours and flavour combinations we had not had before, all served in the calm and serene setting of the restaurant with a front row seat to the kitchen. And we had the pleasure of having Chef Rasmus Kofoed actually serve and explain to us his new Spring dish of crispy Fjord shrimp! A wonderful and attentive staff and the gracious chefs who posed for a photo at the end (starting a chain reaction with the rest of the diners 😂) made it an afternoon well spent in Copenhagen. #geranium #geraniumcopenhagen #michelin #michelinstar #3michelinstars #copenhagen #denmark🇩🇰 #finedining #scandinavian #experience #diningexperience #experiencetoremember #bhdctravels #bhdcholidays

If Rene Redzepi goes here, so will we! Restaurant Schonneman is recommended for the traditional Danish Smørrebrød or open sandwiches and boy what a choice they had! I opted for the Chairman's snack consisting of the smokiest smoked Salmon I have ever had, topped with lovage mayonnaise, my new favourite pickled tomatoes served on toasted rye bread Aniruddha had a tenderloin steak of pork with caramelized onions and cucumber and a lovely pint of beer Also a first for me - dill schnapps! So fresh and delicious and a perfect complement to the Salmon Followed by their small dessert plate consisting of a fruit and marzipan cake, chocolate mousse and a lovely glass of Easter schnapps The fortification is needed consisting how crazy windy it is in Copenhagen today 🌬️🧥 #copenhagen #denmark🇩🇰 #danishfood #danishtradition #smorrebrod #opensandwiches #smokedsalmon #porktenderloin #ryebread #schnapps #bhdcholidays #bhdctravels

Glad Påsk (Happy Easter)! We decided to celebrate it in Swedish tradition with a Påskbuffé, the Easter smorgasbord at the famous Verandan restaurant at the Grand hotel So much good food! Potato and onion soup, herring in mustard, herring in curry sauce, salmon smoked in at least 4 different ways, terrines, egg with roe, smoked ham, rabbit, fresh vegetables, meatballs, artic char, potato and anchovy casserole, sourdough...phew! And desserts! Princess cake, carrot cake, Macarons, strawberry compote and chocolate cake. It has been a happy Easter indeed! 🐰 #gladpåsk #easter #grandhotelstockholm #verandan #stockholm #sweden #easterfeast #smorgasbord #påskbuffe #bhdctravels #bhdcholidays

After a lovely visit to the Vasa Museum we treated ourselves to a delicious meal at Oaxen Krog & Slip and enjoyed the glorious spring weather of Stockholm Standout dishes: Baked Jerusalem artichoke, Herring in brown butter, beetroots, egg and hazelnut, Kohlrabi with bresaola and tarragon and a fried potato bread! Fresh, and sooo tasty! We're loving the food in this city right now 😊 #stockholm #sweden #swedishfood #swedishrestaurant #oaxenslip #springweather #springinstockholm #jerusalemartichoke #fishroe #kolhrabi #herring #potatobread #bhdcholidays #bhdctravels #holidays

Swedish dinner at Bakfickan at the Opera House. Toast with crayfish in mayonnaise topped with grated cheese, dill and trout roe. Assorted pickled herring with classic garnishes LaxPudding - an overly generous portion of salmon and potatoes topped with fresh shrimp and lashings of horseradish! Meat cutlet with potatoes and sauce Simple flavours, well prepared and a great ambience sitting and eating at the bar counter #stockholm #swedishfood #swedishcuisine #bakfickan #operahouse #crayfish #troutroe #pickledherring #laxpudding #salmon #nordicflavours #bhdctravels #bhdcholidays
