About

The café operates as a restaurant and is known among those who stop in Faaborg.
Scandinavian island food is built on fish — cod, herring and salmon — dried, salted or smoked, which shapes much of what appears on menus along this coast.
Fishing, boatbuilding and coastal trade shaped island communities here, and wooden churches and boathouses survive as traces of that past. Fyn sits far enough south that it does not see the midnight sun or polar night of the far northern Scandinavian islands. Viking Age trading sites and rune stones are found on Scandinavian islands, and Visby was a Hanseatic port.
