As the unofficial top private chef for Innsbrook, following the official chef nomination by Airbnb, we are always thrilled to be invited to prepare delightful meals for the wonderful events held there. Especially the ones that give your heart a warm, fuzzy feeling!A couple of weekends ago, an incredible group of devoted moms gathered to embrace the spirit of Mother's Day a bit earlier than usual. To them, it was a deeply cherished and much-needed escape from their everyday tasks and responsibilities, and we were overjoyed to shower them with love and appreciation through a delightful spread. The air was filled with warmth, gratitude and laughter as these extraordinary women took a moment to relax and feel truly cherished.We decide to celebrate them by creating a menu made up of; * Lobster Bisque* French Country Salad With Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette* Seared Jumbo Shrimps With Crème D'échalote* Beef Filet Mignon, Potato Mousseline, Mushroom Ragout, Bordelaise Sauce* Warm Apple Tart With Passion Fruit SorbetWith the capable Edina by my side, we successfully navigated the small kitchen and served delicious treats to the wonderful mothers who were delighted with the entire experience.

Frikadeller, which translates to "Danish meatballs" in English, is a beloved comfort food in Denmark. These pan-fried, flat-bottomed meatballs are crafted from ground meat, typically a mix of pork and either veal or beef. They are commonly accompanied by mashed potatoes, gravy, or pickled cabbage.Frikadeller are so beloved in Denmark, they make regular appearances at both lunch and dinner tables, and their fame even stretches to Poland, where they moonlight as "kotlety mielone" or ground cutlets. Known for their rustic, slightly grainy texture, they stand out from their smoother Swedish cousins.These meaty delights date all the way back to the 17th century in Germany—talk about a tasty piece of history! ...#danishfood #danish #d #foodie #denmark #food #rrebr #sm #danskmad #foodporn #scandinavianfood #copenhagen #l #swedishfood #instafood #foodphotography #foodblogger #danishzehen #zehen #foodstagram #danishpastry #foodlover #k #lunch #scandinavia #sweden #r #danisharchitecture #delicious #dinner ...

Stegt Flæsk med Persillesovs:Stegt flæsk is the crown jewel of Danish cuisine, proudly reigning as the national dish since 2014. This crispy delight features fried pork belly slices that are golden on the outside and melt-in-your-mouth tender inside, served with a beautiful parsley sauce and boiled potatoes. The "persillesovs" is a creamy white sauce mixed with fresh parsley, making it the perfect sidekick to the rich pork. For a sweet twist, throw in some apple compote! Fun tidbit: It’s a staple of election nights, thanks to "valgflæsk"—a cheeky nod to politicians' big promises....#danishfood #danish #d #foodie #denmark #food #rrebr #sm #danskmad #foodporn #scandinavianfood #copenhagen #l #swedishfood #instafood #foodphotography #foodblogger #danishzehen #zehen #foodstagram #danishpastry #foodlover #k #lunch #scandinavia #sweden #r #danisharchitecture #delicious #dinner ...

Kofta tagine, the Moroccan superstar, is a wonderful dish that is made up of spicy meatballs swimming in a zesty tomato bath, all cooked in the iconic tagine pot."Kefta" is the fancy name for the spiced-up ground meat, usually beef, lamb, or a meaty medley. The tagine pot—a magical cone-lidded wonder—cooks everything slow and steady, like a culinary spa treatment. As steam rises and trickles back down, the feast becomes extra juicy and tender, making those meatballs and sauce sing with SO MUCH flavor.Pro tip: You'll want to grab some bread to mop up every last drop of that scrumptious sauce!Fun tidbit: "Kofta" traces back to the Persian word “kufteh,” meaning “to grind” or “to pound,” hinting at the delightful meat-prepping process!...#moroccanfood #morocco #food #marrakech #instafood #foodie #maroc #cuisinemarocaine #foodporn #couscous #cuisine #tagine #moroccan #moroccancuisine #yummy #foodlover #moroccanstyle #tajine #casablanca #bhfyp #marocaine #foodphotography #marocain #foodblogger #moroccotravel #healthyfood #photography #delicious #foodstagram #ramadan ...
