Randi, have you been here? If so, what did you think?
Funny you should ask, I just went there for the first time today. It used to be an open green market where you could go and buy cheap veggies and fruit from lots of stalls - and flowers out front. The people who used to run it, were all working class danes. I remember going there with my mom when I was little.
Now it has tuned into an exclusive deli market, it seems. Hardly any green grocers there, yet. The foods they have is yummy, though - if you have the money! One stall was selling nuts, and yes, they had pecans... $5,40 for a 100 grams!

It looks like a wonderful place - something for everyone, it seems.
Ooops, I thought that this was the link you referred to - also from N.Y. times:

Wow, I'm tempted to book a flight to Copenhagen just to try out that coffee shop!
Did someone say coffee?
All too often it seems that's the down-side when this kind of place comes into being.. They have fabulous food, but for the most part it' too expensive for ordinary folks to afford. I hope you'll be getting some local farmers and vendors in there soon.Quote:
