Theme lunches 2024/25

Once again this year, Den Gamle Stald and Det Grønne Museum are joining forces to create some truly unique lunch events where both taste buds and brains are stimulated.

Sink your teeth into history with The Green Museum's food historian Bettina Buhl and restaurateur Kim Thygesen from Den Gamle Stald.

Meatless Tuesdays – lunch with a taste of good history

“Kødfrie tirsdage” var en fast tradition i mange danske hjem under besættelsen, hvor det ofte ikke var muligt at få kød på bordet. Dette førte til, at kødportionerne blev strakt, eller man måtte helt undvære kød. For mange familier blev tirsdag derfor den kødfrie dag, hvilket krævede stor kreativitet med grøntsager og urter fra husets frue.

Now you have a unique opportunity to participate in one or more meat-free Tuesdays at The Green Museum. Food historian and museum curator Bettina Buhl has selected four themes, where Danish herbs, vegetables, fruits and berries, which have been used for generations, get a well-deserved starring role. The chefs at Den Gamle Stald will interpret and present delicious and creative dishes over two servings – completely without the use of meat.

The lunch begins with a 20-minute presentation by Bettina, where she talks about the day's theme, the season and the context during the occupation. Several of the ingredients are harvested in the Green Museum's garden, where we preserve old cultural and useful plants.

The price is only 245,- + drinks, and you can buy tickets for the events here
