Under Lindetræet

Frommer's Review

In summer make your way past the artists who invariably sit out sketching the home of Hans Christian Andersen to this inn from 1704 located across the street from the storyteller's museum. Since the 1960s it's been a landmark and local favorite. Since everyone visits The Ugly Duckling's home, it's the most popular restaurant in town. That could mean it is no more than a tourist trap. It isn't -- rather, it's one of the finest restaurants in town with a menu based on fresh, first-class ingredients. Skillfully prepared dishes include tender Danish lamb, filet of plaice with butter sauce, escallop of veal in sherry sauce, fried herring with new potatoes, and an upscale version of skipperlabskovs, the famed sailors' hash. The atmosphere is Old World, and in summer, meals and light refreshments are served outside under linden trees.
