Flora Danica's 100% Danish brunch

In September 2017, we fell under the spell of the excellent cuisine on offer at Flora Danica. Since then, the place hasn't been empty, satisfying the taste buds of many Parisians and tourists who love Nordic gastronomy.

Since June 2018, Flora Danica has been offering a new immersion in Scandinavia with its 100% Danish brunch.

To be discovered every Sunday, from 12pm to 3pm, this brunch is enjoyed in several stages.

First, there's the imposing all-you-can-eat buffet. And let's face it, there's something for everyone, starting with the savory Smørrebrød. The smørrebrød with avocado slices delicately placed on French bread, thevegetarian smørrebrød with zucchini slices, the smørrebrød with pastrami and the smørrebrød with smoked haddock.

Next door, you're spoilt for choice with salmon rillettes, tarama, pickled cucumbers, salami and Danish ham.

A little further on, we discover the imposing salad bowls that change according to the market.

The classics are there too, with muesli, fruit salads and cheeses, as well as, for those with a sweet tooth, a range of viennoiseries and a choice of cakes (chocolate, lemon, vanilla, etc.), verrines of fromage frais with red berries and chocolate mousse.

Orange juice, grapefruit juice, cranberry juice anddetox water flavored with fresh herbs are also available!

Next comes table service, where we are offered coffee or tea, scrambled eggs or fried eggs, and finally a tasting plate of fish or a plate of seasonal vegetables.

We opted for local fare, with a succulent plate of melting slices of salmon, diced salmon and slices of herring.

As well as enjoying a tasty, hearty brunch, you can take advantage of the restaurant's idyllic setting, with a choice of the top of the verdant terrace or the restaurant's very pleasant patio. A word of advice: make sure you book ahead for this Danish Sunday treat, as brunch is becoming increasingly popular!

Note that children under 12 can enjoy the buffet for €19, compared with €39 for adults.
