All for our loyal readers of Pick of the Week. <\/p>\n<h2>3:festivals galore!<\/h2>\n<p>November is the busiest month festival-wise. It\u2019s the last chance before the Christmas season starts, and everybody is too busy going to Christmas parties to be cultural, and the weather encourages inside activities like reading or watching movies. We pick two festivals that you don\u2019t want to miss this week: <\/p>\n<p>The heavyweight <em>kbh l\u00e6ser<\/em> event lounges in the literary corner of the festivals. The kbh l\u00e6ser, &#8216;Copenhagen reads&#8217;, festival has a huge programme in over 30 different venues across the Copenhagen, putting our beautiful city and the Danish literary scene in focus.<\/p>\n<p>The TING is also filled with local love, but here, it\u2019s on a slightly larger scale: TING is a Nordic festival which alternates between Scandinavian capitals. This year, TING is in Copenhagen with a programme that includes everything from a Nordic food market to art exhibitions to debate meetings. Cherry on the top: Many of the events are free. <\/p>\n<p>Kbh l\u00e6ser 5 \u2013 11 November. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kbhlaeser.dk\/\" target=\"_blank\">See programme here.<\/a><br \/>\nTING festival 28 October \u2013 6 November. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kk.dk\/sitecore\/content\/Subsites\/Ting2011\/SubsiteFrontpage\/Program.aspx%20\" target=\"_blank\">See programme here.<\/a><br \/>\nAlso, check out CPH:DOX, film documentary festival which also takes place this week <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cphdox.dk\/d1\/a1.lasso?e=1\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>2:Movember<\/h2>\n<p>Sorry girls, this is an (almost) man-only activity. If you aren\u2019t already on board with the Movember-movement, now\u2019s the time to start! It\u2019s already been going on for a week, but better late than never to support a good cause while looking hip (or stupid, depending on your outlook). <\/p>\n<p>Movember is all about growing facial hair, more specifically moustaches. Every year since 2003, Movember has asked men around the word to grow a moustache to raise awareness about men\u2019s health. The men bearing the moustache for the 30 days of November then work as a constant and living reminder of  the issues surrounding men\u2019s health, and besides growing beards, the month is spent collecting donations to improve conditions in this area by all. <\/p>\n<p>Of course, the growing of such a moustache isn\u2019t done without the support of the people around you. This is why at the end of November, the growers \u2013 Mo Bros \u2013 and the women closest to them \u2013 Mo Sistas \u2013 are invited to a party to celebrate the hard work. This is also where the prestigious titles of Man of Movember and Miss Movember are given out to those most deserving. <\/p>\n<p>Movember. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.movember.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">More info here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>1:Gr\u00f8d, what? Gr\u00f8d<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to food, good old Nordic traditions are all the rage these days. After years of being ruled by overseas countries like Italy, France or even Japan and Vietnam, the Danish way to cook is back in the culinary focus of the movers and shakers in the country. <\/p>\n<p>The Nordic food movement reached a peak when NOMA was awarded the title of the world\u2019s best restaurant last year, but you can find much more affordable and down-to-earth examples of eateries putting the Nordic traditions in focus \u2013 and this is where the place-to-be <em>Gr\u00f8d<\/em> comes into the picture. <\/p>\n<p>Gr\u00f8d \u2013 the word all foreigners are forced to say to amuse Danish listeners, it is pronounced something like &#8216;grurrrwthhh&#8217; &#8211; means porridge, and is all that is served in the small restaurant. Taking the Danish tradition for eating porridge seriously and reaching far beyond oatmeal, the weekly menu takes its point of departure in the fruit and veg of the season and contains versions of porridge suitable for breakfast, dinner and lunch at very affordable prices: at DKK 60 for the dinner versions, going native won\u2019t break your bank! <\/p>\n<p>J\u00e6gersborggade 50, 2200 Kbh.

All for our loyal readers of Pick of the Week. <\/p>\n<h2>3:festivals galore!<\/h2>\n<p>November is the busiest month festival-wise. It\u2019s the last chance before the Christmas season starts, and everybody is too busy going to Christmas parties to be cultural, and the weather encourages inside activities like reading or watching movies. We pick two festivals that you don\u2019t want to miss this week: <\/p>\n<p>The heavyweight <em>kbh l\u00e6ser<\/em> event lounges in the literary corner of the festivals. The kbh l\u00e6ser, &#8216;Copenhagen reads&#8217;, festival has a huge programme in over 30 different venues across the Copenhagen, putting our beautiful city and the Danish literary scene in focus.<\/p>\n<p>The TING is also filled with local love, but here, it\u2019s on a slightly larger scale: TING is a Nordic festival which alternates between Scandinavian capitals. This year, TING is in Copenhagen with a programme that includes everything from a Nordic food market to art exhibitions to debate meetings. Cherry on the top: Many of the events are free. <\/p>\n<p>Kbh l\u00e6ser 5 \u2013 11 November. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kbhlaeser.dk\/\" target=\"_blank\">See programme here.<\/a><br \/>\nTING festival 28 October \u2013 6 November. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kk.dk\/sitecore\/content\/Subsites\/Ting2011\/SubsiteFrontpage\/Program.aspx%20\" target=\"_blank\">See programme here.<\/a><br \/>\nAlso, check out CPH:DOX, film documentary festival which also takes place this week <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cphdox.dk\/d1\/a1.lasso?e=1\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>2:Movember<\/h2>\n<p>Sorry girls, this is an (almost) man-only activity. If you aren\u2019t already on board with the Movember-movement, now\u2019s the time to start! It\u2019s already been going on for a week, but better late than never to support a good cause while looking hip (or stupid, depending on your outlook). <\/p>\n<p>Movember is all about growing facial hair, more specifically moustaches. Every year since 2003, Movember has asked men around the word to grow a moustache to raise awareness about men\u2019s health. The men bearing the moustache for the 30 days of November then work as a constant and living reminder of  the issues surrounding men\u2019s health, and besides growing beards, the month is spent collecting donations to improve conditions in this area by all. <\/p>\n<p>Of course, the growing of such a moustache isn\u2019t done without the support of the people around you. This is why at the end of November, the growers \u2013 Mo Bros \u2013 and the women closest to them \u2013 Mo Sistas \u2013 are invited to a party to celebrate the hard work. This is also where the prestigious titles of Man of Movember and Miss Movember are given out to those most deserving. <\/p>\n<p>Movember. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.movember.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">More info here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>1:Gr\u00f8d, what? Gr\u00f8d<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to food, good old Nordic traditions are all the rage these days. After years of being ruled by overseas countries like Italy, France or even Japan and Vietnam, the Danish way to cook is back in the culinary focus of the movers and shakers in the country. <\/p>\n<p>The Nordic food movement reached a peak when NOMA was awarded the title of the world\u2019s best restaurant last year, but you can find much more affordable and down-to-earth examples of eateries putting the Nordic traditions in focus \u2013 and this is where the place-to-be <em>Gr\u00f8d<\/em> comes into the picture. <\/p>\n<p>Gr\u00f8d \u2013 the word all foreigners are forced to say to amuse Danish listeners, it is pronounced something like &#8216;grurrrwthhh&#8217; &#8211; means porridge, and is all that is served in the small restaurant. Taking the Danish tradition for eating porridge seriously and reaching far beyond oatmeal, the weekly menu takes its point of departure in the fruit and veg of the season and contains versions of porridge suitable for breakfast, dinner and lunch at very affordable prices: at DKK 60 for the dinner versions, going native won\u2019t break your bank! <\/p>\n<p>J\u00e6gersborggade 50, 2200 Kbh.
