Also the book says that on the east-facing coast the porcelain manufacturer Royal Copenhagen has disposed of huge quantities of broken cups, bowls and plates.

Of course I didn't bring a shovel so I was looking at the embankment to see if anything pokes out.

I ended up with these. All on the surface, some next to fireplaces. So are these linked to the history of the place or just to the microhistory of a family that had a picnic here?

The first shard definetly looks like RC, the other two might be French stuff.

The quiet search made possible an unexpected wildlife encounter.

Still don't know what these animals were. Some Mustelidae, that's for sure.

I continued my way hoping to see some of the lamas (alpacas?), sheep and goats that inhabit the place, but I only met a dog lead on a leash.

These domesticated animals should be in the South during Winter and in the North during summer.

I entered Sydhavnstippen from the South East (Sydløbsvej) and exited in the Northern part. There are wooden gates that are not locked.

First of all Copenhagen is the most overrated capital in Europe. You should visit only for the most particular and valid reasons.

brune værtshuse (plural)

Not every brown bar is a smoking bar, but a bar where smoking is still allowed is par excellence a brown bar.

It took me more then a single google search to find results about three such bars.

The first one looks like the usual anarchist nest. It's too soon for me to go to such places. Look up "Floss" if interested.

The second find was the Bo-Bi Bar.

As of my understanding, smoking isn't prohibited in bars that have a reduced surface area and a single room if they don't serve food.

Nonetheless you can order boiled eggs at Bo-Bi.

With salt, pepper and mustard.

Behind the counter an old lady that will enforce the no photos rule with the instagramer type of people.

I ask her if it was a custom at Danish bars to serve boiled eggs. It turns out that someone brought the idea (and the contraption) from France and probably Bo-Bi is the single place in Copenhagen that has this thing.

For reference have a look at IS's post:

I didn't dare to photograph it. I will draw it if I'll go back.

A nice memento:

twenty krona if my memory doesn't fail me

The third result of my investigations:

Cafe Nick. Also in the Inner City, however no more smoking inside. But you can still smell the walls.

An even older lady behind the counter. She will invite you to sit at the bar and if you refuse then she will bring salty sticks in a glass. Not so popular place.

Very fin de siècle atmosphere. Might go back just for a beer.

Beers are small in Denmark. 33 cl
