Tiny little Danish bakery located in the underground of Union Station. You'd miss it if you were just rushing to and from work amongst all the construction. Glass displays of freshly baked pastries and cakes line two walls for patrons to agonize over.
I purchased an Aeble Fiske ($2.50), which is a puff pastry folded in towards a slice of tart apple and topped with icing sugar. The pastry itself was super light and flaky but not at all dry - it pretty much falls apart in your mouth when you bite into it. Baked for just the right amount of time, there were no hard edges, just flaky, crispy layers. The icing sugar gave it just a little bit of sweetness in each bite. I feel like it disappeared in 5 bites since the layers were so airy. I thought the apple was a little too raw, but maybe that's the way it's intended to be (I've never been to Denmark so I can't say).
My only gripe is that the store is tiny so you feel rushed while you're trying to figure out what you want. The signs are all in Danish so it'd be nice to have a short description underneath to explain the ingredients.
I really enjoyed the apple pastry and am looking forward to trying their Spandaur next.
