Axeltorv 8, København, 1609 [Map]

Dante's Divine Comedy, the epic poem that recounts the famed journey to hell and back, seems to have been the inspiration behind naming this Italian restaurant Il Peccato.

Dante's Divine Comedy, the epic poem that recounts the famed journey to hell and back, seems to have been the inspiration behind naming this Italian restaurant Il Peccato. Located in the Axel Torv, just a few minutes away from the Ascot Hotel, this is just the right sort of place to saunter into for a leisurely lunch or a quiet evening.

Il Peccato means 'sin' and the owner Ramon Thu seems to have taken the concept to heart, making generous use of fire archetypes and employing 'hot' artist couple Thyra Hilden and Pio Diaz to rekindle some of their earlier magic with the Copenhagen Cathedral, where they created the illusion of fire. Even if you are not enraptured by the work of the duo, at least the food there will keep you pleasantly occupied.

Start with either the carpaccio of swordfish with a delicate citrus sauce and drizzled with virgin oil, or the vitello tonato, chilled veal sprinkled with capers and topped with tuna sauce. There also choices of different insalata like the rocket salad with cherry, parmesan, pine nuts, walnuts and raisins if something light and fresh appeals to you.

The range of pastas is exciting and extensive, including penne with tomato, bacon and chilli, as well as tortellini stuffed with prosciutto ham, gorgonzola sauce and pine nuts. Seafood lovers can rejoice with the gamberoni al forno, shrimps fried in an open oven with garlic, sea salt and chilli, or the grilled salmon filet with saffron rice. Meat dishes are also popular and the filetto al peppe verde, tender beef fillets with green peppers and chef's special sauce or the grilled entrecôte with mushrooms in white wine sauce, served with vegetables of the day are good examples of what to expect there.

As with any self respecting ristorante, Il Peccato gives pizzas their rightful due and serves varieties that include diavola, a delightful combination of tomato, mozzarella, pesto, grated parmesan and pine nuts, as well as caprichosa with Italian ham and mushrooms.

You could try the different cheeses there or simply get down to business at the desserts section. Forget insipid replicas that you may have tasted elsewhere and take a look at what Il Peccato offers. Tiramisu, pannacotta, chocolate mousse are just some of the indulgent treats you might want to sample while ardently bidding your calorie counting days good bye.

The list of Italian wines is comprehensive and accompanies every aspect of your meal suitably. Gluttony may be considered a sin, but at Il Peccato you would be doing yourself a disservice if you do not indulge in the feast that they have in store for you.

Biscaya Tapas Bar in Copenhagen takes its name from the Basque word Bizkaia, more normally known as Biscay, the stormy bay between France and the Northern part of Spain and also what the province itself is called. Learn more

Biscaya Tapas Bar in Copenhagen takes its name from the Basque word Bizkaia, more normally known as Biscay, the stormy bay between France and the Northern part of Spain and also what the province itself is called. The people living in this region are known to be different in their tastes, politically, linguistically, with sports and of course food. They love to experiment, devotedly cook, serve, consume and enjoy.

This culinary haven, which is situated near the Town Hall and in close proximity to most of the city's theatres, is perfect for a quick snack before watching a movie or a more relaxed meal afterwards.

Biscaya tempts the Danes with a range of flavoursome and varied tapas from the Northern part of Spain. They are all made from fresh produce, vary from day to day and depend on what is good that's in season, so don't be surprised to see an almost completely new menu the next time you visit them. They also serve authentic traditional and modern Spanish dishes as well as a list of over fifty carefully chosen Spanish wines.

A carpaccio of tomato and cucumber, prepared with peppers, capers and virgin olive oil makes for a splendid starter. The emphasis is on delicate yet rich flavours and you could sample the famous Andalusian soup, made from kale - a kind of cabbage - served ice-cold with vegetables and crispy croutons, to experience the joys of Biscaya's fare first hand.

Their tapas start with Spanish potatoes and tuna with homemade mayonnaise or lovely oven baked empanadas stuffed with beef and vegetables. The choices offered are almost endless, fried chicken breast with garlic, bay leaves and sherry, stone roasted mushrooms with Spanish ham, spicy tortillas, albondigas - spicy meatballs - and Navarre piquillo peppers stuffed with shrimps or beef.

There's plenty more besides these for the more adventurous like the escaixada de bacalao, a Catalan speciality of salted cod marinated in olive oil and fresh pepper or squid and mussels served traditionally on a bed of potatoes.

Mains are spread over tantalising choices of both grilled meat and fish. Trust their breast of chicken with raisins and pine nuts in Moscatel sauce to delight the taste buds. The tuna, salted cod, prawns, squid, monkfish and shellfish platter is an elaborate affair, better understood when it's placed before you.

From the selection of desserts, you could choose chocolate mousse with mocha and brandy or crema catalana, a kind of crème brûlée. For something simpler and more straightforward, try the platter of Spanish cheeses.

Landgreven 3, København, 1301 [Map]

The only time you'll see a Dane brandishing a knife is when he's got a fork in the other goes a well-known quip, and, at Koefoed, you'll see many of them attaining hygge, a Danish term that comes closest to describing utopia. Learn more

The only time you'll see a Dane brandishing a knife is when he's got a fork in the other goes a well-known quip, and, at Koefoed, you'll see many of them attaining hygge, a Danish term that comes closest to describing utopia. Chef Jonas Harlfeldt has forayed into new wave Nordic cooking focusing on produce from the rugged island of Bornholm, which has the distinction of getting more sunshine than anywhere in the country. This has created an unusual natural pantry including wild figs, sycamore berries, deeply flavoured lamb and chicken and award winning cheeses.

In the words of Timo Hoffman, co-owner, this venture is an expression of his fascination with the beautiful province and the restaurant combines regional and international ingredients. Situated in the heart of Copenhagen, it can seat up to sixty people in an exclusive and pleasant environment and features separate rooms with curtains to provide privacy or alternatively they can be arranged to accommodate larger parties. It can be said that his vision to combine classic with modern, raw with sophisticated, and local with international, is really succeeding going by the devoted clientele that they have attracted.

Smoked salmon, smoked cream cheese and radishes provide a great opening to the menu, but what follows is equal to if not better in drawing out your gastronomic aspirations. From the sea there's fish fillets, cauliflower remoulade and lemon and the salted fried herring, sweet pickled beetroots, mustard sauce and onion relish. Cured ham served with pickled raisins and blue cheese and chicken salad with apple and bacon will help you sample their meat preparations.

Pan fried mullet, sweet corn puree, confited chorizo and fennel sautéed sander, mashed new potatoes, tomato relish, and green beans or rump of veal, pea puree, sweet summer onions and baby tomatoes could be the choices for the main course.

Desserts are a real feast with varieties like white chocolate panna cotta, poached peaches and raspberry sorbet and Danish summer berries, crispy rye bread and vanilla cream attracting attention. For nibbles there are Koefoed's sandwiches and specials include fish of the day and selection of Koefoed's herrings. The fixed menu offers two, three and four course options.

Havnegade 44, Custom House, Copenhagen, 1058 [Map]

Who would have thought that the once staid and boring Custom House would be transformed into the trendy restaurant complex of present times? Surely not the Vikings who looked at this waterfront building as they anchored their ships at the harbour! The Custom House Bar and Grill is housed on the ground floor of this historic structure that has been refurbished and, although the exterior is still the traditional dark brown, the inside spaces are open, bright and airy.

Who would have thought that the once staid and boring Custom House would be transformed into the trendy restaurant complex of present times? Surely not the Vikings who looked at this waterfront building as they anchored their ships at the harbour! The Custom House Bar and Grill is housed on the ground floor of this historic structure that has been refurbished and, although the exterior is still the traditional dark brown, the inside spaces are open, bright and airy.

The Custom House Bar and Grill is a modern European brasserie with influences from Scandinavia thrown in. With its deep red leather banquettes it exudes an air of comfort, while the spacious interiors offer stunning views across the water. Why not walk in for a late brunch and sample a Spanish potato omelette or a spinach quiche? Smoked salmon with horseradish cream also provides an interesting start to the day.

For lunch you could begin with a cool gazpacho with cucumber, tuna and codfish ceviche and then progress to the tempting displays on the smorgasbord. Try the prawns with boiled egg and lump fish roe served with mayonnaise on rye bread or the pan fried fillet of plaice, remoulade sauce and pickled cucumber. The grilled corn fed chicken sandwich with salad, curry dressing and bacon or the beef burger with cheddar, bacon and coleslaw are other good ways to have an enjoyable meal there.

At dinner time the Bar and Grill turns into a full fledged restaurant serving dishes such as a classic lobster bisque with dill fish cakes or carpaccio of venison, sprinkled with cumin and hazelnuts, drizzled with colza oil, and finally topped with cheese amongst other starters. For the main course you could order the confit of duck, spring cabbage, apple-turnip pure and foie gras jus or the rack of lamb with pearl onions, parsnips, puy lentils and red wine sauce.

What use is such fine dining if it doesn't culminate in something sweet? Don't count your increasing calorie intake and simply order the rich chocolate tart with orange curd and Chantilly cream or maybe the fresh strawberries and ice cream. The international wine list offers a suitable range to complement your meal or you could select one of the champagnes if you prefer a more bubbly accompaniment. The Bar and Grill is just the place if you want to spend an intimate evening ruminating over a drink, looking out at the twilight over the harbour.
