Denmark’s capital of Copenhagen, known as the city of fairy tales, is sure to captivate you with its canals, excellent food and friendly locals. You’ll then visit some of Denmark’s most picture-perfect ports, including the fortress city of Fredericia, and the ancient garden town of Ronne in Bornholm that harks back to the year 1000. Stockholm will provide you with medieval charm in its Old Town, a stark contrast against its chic modernity, before heading to the creative vibrancy of Aarhus.

For the béchamel sauce
Place a pot over medium heat.
Add the butter and let it melt.
Add the flour and whisk until it soaks up all of the butter.
Add the milk in small batches while continuously whisking so that no lumps form.

Add the nutmeg, salt, pepper, 100 g parmesan and 3 egg yolks. Whisk thoroughly.
To assemble
Preheat oven to 180* C (350* F) Fan.
In a 25x32 cm baking pan, spread a layer of potatoes, cover with a layer of eggplants and top with a layer of zucchini. Season in between layers.

Cover with the béchamel sauce, spreading it evenly and sprinkle with 50 g of grated parmesan.
Bake for 35-40 minutes.
When ready, remove from oven and allow to cool.
Serve with fresh herbs and olive oil and a side salad.

🤷‍♂️Did you know?
✨This city has more fountains than any other city, in various forms and sizes.
✨The Pantheon is the only ancient building that is still in pristine condition, due to its special formula of limestone and volcanic ash. Its is also a consecrated site.
✨The Spanish Steps aren't Spanish. Cascading from Trinità dei Monti church to Piazza di Spagna below, these Baroque 18th-century steps were designed by an Italian architect at the request of a French diplomat.
✨Home to Italys first McDonald's. The famous brand with the golden arches opened their first outlet in March 1986 near the Spanish Steps.
✨Most residents prefer to ride their Vespa over their Fiat cars. Petrol is imported and expensive, and its easier and quicker to
navigate through the City's heavy traffic.

‼️‼️ Which City am I referring to? ‼️‼️
