Hello from Denmark!

Haven't been to Copenhagen for a few years, still weird to see Dan and Jan there :)

Also those brown fried things both on the burger and the hot dog are fried onions ("ristede løg" in Danish). And Dan's hotdog was a French Hotdog, don't think they have them in France though...

I love @danryckert too much.

Also, these travelogues are always the best thing.

Denmark is famous for its hot dogs, especially that hole-in-a-bun style.

BTW, that fried crunchy stuff is just roast onion. Is that not a common thing in America?

@durman667: We call it 'brun sovs' which translates to brown sauce or brown gravy. It's a stable in old school Danish cooking.

Travelogues are some of my fave Giant Bomb stuff, the Iceland one convinced me to take my first solo trip abroad for a week and was an amazing place. Glad to see a comeback, and this one was great too :)

@kdr_11k: I mean, it's not impossible to find here, but it's (sadly) not really a hot dog condiment. Raw onion is the typical topping here in my personal experience.

Glad they enjoyed their trip. Now it makes me kinda wish they did more trips to other countries like this.

Hot dogs in closed buns and way too much ice-cream is the Danish experience for sure.

The brown sauce you got on your burger is real good with meat, assuming it's the same traditionally served with many meat dinners in Norway, dunno how good it'd be to dunk a burger in but it didn't look like a bad combination.
The brown crispy stuff Jan got are fried onions, a very popular topping for hot dogs in Scandinavia. I assume Jan got some remoulade (type of mayo) on his hot dog too.

Drown that hot dog in toppings!

Dan would surely love all the fab restaurants in copenhagen. Best in class. If you're a meat guy, then this is the city for you.

There are several things in Denmark that are meant to put you off getting a car, like there's some pretty heavy tax on owning a car and the government will even give you some money every year simply for not owning a car. I went to university in Copenhagen for one and a half years and even I got that payout once even though I just lived there.

Imagine if Dan traveled with Karl on An Idiot Abroad. That'd be an incredible show.

Very cool video to watch as a Copenhagen native! Let us know next time, if you want suggestions on where to really experience the food and drinks this wonderful city has to offer!

Also I love the comparison to Vegas and other big American cities. This is such a different beast in many ways.

I went to Amsterdam about 18 years ago and I am unsurprised at how much Copenhagen reminds me of that city. Not that it's a 1:1 match, but seeing all those bikes was definitely something I remember seeing a lot of in Amsterdam too.

Obviously, there's a big language difference too.

Also, that hot dog looked delicious.
