| - I love this place!
You may be thinking ... "Do I know anyone who is actually Danish Canadian?"
I don't lol.
You may be thinking ... "What is Danish food like?"
I still don't know and I've been here twice haha.
You may also be thinking ... "Will I be unwelcome at this place if I'm not Danish?"
No way man.
For dinner, there are also no danishes available. Or mermaids. I don't even think eating mermaids is legit, yo.
I helped organize two graduation dinners here for two consecutive graduating classes. The same waitress handled us both times (and she remembered us!) -- she was very adept and extremely warm and friendly. The food was great too -- at the time, my standards as an undergraduate were probably not as high as they are today -- but even the professors had a great time! I especially recommend their baby shrimp salad -- the baby shrimp is so savoury and the sauce gives it that little kick that makes you want to say: "I am so glad Danish people live by the ocean." Even though I wouldn't be surprised if this club were run by non-Danish people.
There was ample food, and the venue itself is large and all set up in advance. I believe the fee was pretty reasonable (it worked out to about $20-30 per person, for our group of 40) and the menu is handled in consultation with the club. They can also set up a projector system for you.
Finally, the Danish decorations around the club give it that special feel -- like it's cosy, not like a hoity-toity "Hallo, my name is Earl MacNeil, and yours, young sir?" kind of exclusivity. And it's educational, because I still remember that apparently all of Denmark's kings were named Frederik and Christian, Frederik and Christian, yadda, yadda, yadda.
Thanks DCC for the great experiences!
