Clubbing with Orlando Bloom

Yesterday I went to a pretty new place in Copenhagen named Simons (Simon's). It's the hot spot for the rich, famous and beautiful. Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark has been partying there two nights in a row this week celebrating his twins' baptism. My friend told me Orlando Bloom had been there this week or last week. So... I had to go there. And who did I meet? Mr. Bloom -  without Miranda. He looks great in real life but I was surprised to see how short he actually is. The last time I saw him he came dragging with a blonde girl who looked more or less wasted. He seemed pretty down to earth. He ownly had a few people around him and non of them looked very bodyguard like.

Simons is a trendy place that you must visit if you are in Copenhagen. It costs 100 kr to get it, which I think is too much. Anyway, I guess it's to make it more exclusive. You shouldn't be there earlier than midnight as the place will be more or less dead.

They only have 8 cocktails on the menu (120 kr.) and only two kinds of shots (30 kr.).

You will see a lot of celebs, rich guys in white shirts, navy blue blazers and colourful ties who think they own the world and girls who wants to date them simply because they have money.

Dreaming away...

This time a year is dedicated to exams. Not exactly what you wanna use your time on when the sun is shining, flowers are blossoming and everyone else seems to have a good time going to Tivoli, eating ice cream in Nyhavn or resting with a cold drink in one of the many parks in Copenhagen. I tend to dream away to places I've been or places I wanna go. Maybe you'll dream away too...

Café Norden, Copenhagen

The first two floors belong to the café

One of my favorite cafés in Copenhagen is Café Norden. It has a great location in the heart of the city close to many tourist attractions and with a view to Amagertorv, Storkespringvandet, Højbro Plads and the famous shopping street Strøget. It's a beautiful old building and the area itself is the oldest part of Copenhagen (12th century). Enjoy a nice brunch or one of the fantastic cakes (try the carrot cake with vanilla cream) on one of the two floors. I prefer one of the window seats with soft cushions on the second floor. The café also has tables outside, which is great when the sun is shining and you can look at all the people passing by- or be seen ;-) Café Norden is not cheap. I guess you pay for the trendy location, but you do get some big plates and I always enjoy eating there.

By Malene Birger

By Malene Birger is one of my favorite Danish designers. Always so classy and feminine. Her SS09 collection reminds me of movie stars from the thirties and forties with luxurious fabrics draped and cut in body-caressing shapes, which emphasize a tiny waist. I love her mix of leather, lacquer, fur and light fabrics. There is a big variety in her collection, from glamour, biker chick to pure voluminous splendor. One of Malene Birger's followers is Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary of Denmark.

Cocktail hour

Missing the sun and palms? Then Caribbian Café and Cocktail bar is the place to go. Caribbian won the prize "Best Cocktail bar of the city" in 2004/05. I think, they still make the best cocktails in town. It isn't the cheapest place, but the cocktails are worth the money. My favorite is daiquiri with one of the berry flavors (68 kr). If you wanna get wasted fast, try a Killer (92 kr.). The dj plays soul, hip hop, r'n'b, funk, disco, reggae and pop hits from the 60'ies till now. You can also bring the party to your own home with the Drink-away offer. Buy 1, 2, 4 or 5 liters of your favorite cocktail or/and take away shots: 1 liter /50 shots. The service is always friendly. Tip: If you are a group of people, call and make a table reservation. The place is always massive crowded Friday and Saturday evening. A smoking-room is available for smokers.

HAPPY HOUR - P.Y.D: wed, thurs and sunday: 21.00-23.00. 4cl. extra alcohol in all drinks. 3 beers for 100,- choose between Negra Modelo, Corona, Sommersby and Red Stripe.

The address of Carbbian: Frederiksborggade 31 (5 min. from Nørreport Station), Copenhagen, Denmark.
