{{main|Danish cuisine}}
The [[new Danish cuisine]] - part of the [[new Nordic cuisine]] movement - has gathered international attention in the new millennium as an inspiring, high quality gourmet cuisine with several acclaimed restaurants. The most popular restaurants of this particular cuisine are primarily located in the Copenhagen area such as Noma, Geranium, Restaurant AOC, Den Røde Cottage and many others. Important provincial restaurants serving a new Danish cuisine includes Ti Trin Ned in [[Fredericia]] and Ruths Gourmet in [[Skagen]].

Apart from the new Danish cuisine, Denmark has an increasing number of high quality gourmet restaurants serving an international cuisine that has also attracted international attention. Many restaurants in the Copenhagen area have been awarded [[Michelin Guide|Michelin stars]] and in 2015, restaurants in Aarhus were the first provincial spots to receive this highly acclaimed rating.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.viamichelin.com/web/Restaurants/Restaurants-Denmark|title=Best Restaurants in the Nordics |publisher=White Guide|access-date=28 October 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thelocal.dk/20150226/aarhus-gets-its-long-awaited-michelin-stars|title=Aarhus gets its long-awaited Michelin stars |publisher=The Locale|date=26 February 2015|access-date=28 October 2015}}</ref> Many other restaurants throughout the country figures in other important food guides, including the Nordic [[White Guide]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://whiteguide-nordic.com/universalsearch?field_restaurant_keyword_value=&hs_form_build_id=hs_form_df4abb2a8d9afcf3dbf69fd75221d8f3&tid_4[hsid]=0&tid_4[hierarchical_select][selects][0]=97&tid_4[hierarchical_select][selects][1]=label_1&tid_4[flat_select]=97&tid_2=All |title=Best Restaurants in the Nordics |publisher=White Guide |access-date=28 October 2015}}</ref>

The usual everyday fare of traditional Danish food for the citizens, comprises a lunch of [[smørrebrød]] on thinly sliced [[Rugbrød|rye bread]]. On occasion, the sandwiches are richly garnished with onion rings, radish slices, cucumbers, tomato slices, parsley, [[remoulade]] or [[mayonnaise]] among others. For elaborate lunch meals, it is custom that it starts with seafood, usually fish such as [[herring|marinated herring]], smoked mackerel or eel, shrimp, or breaded plaice filets with [[remoulade]], after which it moves on with meat such as slices of roast pork or beef, [[frikadeller]] (meat balls), hams and [[Leverpostej|liver pâté]]. <ref>{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20080723192044/http://www.portlanddanes.org/culture.html Danish Culture from PortlandDanes.org]}}.
