Meet Vækst
In Sankt Peders Stræde in the middle of Copenhagen’s old Latin quarter you will find Vækst. Gastronomically, Vækst is based on fresh Nordic vegetables and herbs but we still enjoy a great steak, seafood, and fresh fish. The menu is not the only thing that’s green, as the decor is centred around a beautiful greenhouse, stretching up through the restaurant’s two floors. The rooms are filled with hanging plants drawing nature in all the way to the table, while the many lovely lights create an atmosphere mimicking a Danish summer evening which never ends.
