...purchase a potted azalea along with kaffe og kage (coffee and cake). Best of all, because of the plants, Kaffeplantagen is smoke-free - a rarity for Copenhagen. On nearby Faelledvej, the street leading away from Sankt Hans Torv, is Gefährlich, tel: (45) 3524 1324, where the first floor houses an elegant, relaxed restaurant, and the ground level a gallery, a café and a store that sells records and clothes. The venture was dreamed up by graphic designer Rikke Nogel, artist Eva Wandel, and musicians Sebastian Christensen and Konrad Jahn (the latter is a DJ at the club...
...down by a motorcycle accident 11 years ago. "Dozens of others are just impossible. Either the doors are too narrow, there are steps to get in and, in most of them, the toilets are up or down a flight of stairs.

In a corner, a DJ fiddled with his turntable while a crowd of kids watched. A couple of guys in suits stood off to one side. Although they were probably just visitors, it was easy to imagine them as those other...
...Chirico's spirit is strongest in the top-floor painter's studio, which remains just as he left it at the time of his death. Dried-up paint tubes and brushes are strewn about, and his unfinished oil-on-canvas copy of Michelangelo's masterpiece The Doni Tondo is displayed on his easel. Sunlight streams through the skylights, illuminating De Chirico's library of art and philosophy books and his collection of traditional Italian good-luck charms.
