Top choice in Copenhagen
This harbourside street-food market is a veritable village of converted shipping containers, peddling sustainable bites from across the globe. Multiculti options include organic polenta and pasta, dosas, burgers, sushi, satay skewers and Filipino BBQ. You'll also find a number of bars (open until 10pm or later Friday and Saturday). These include an outpost of Copenhagen's cult-status microbrewery Mikkeller.
Hands down one of the best spots to dine, drink and chill on a warm summer evening.
