Fredericia: Djengis Khan Mongolian Barbecue

Djengis Khan Mongolian Barbecue, Fredericia

My sister Trine and I are very different in many ways, but one thing that brings us together is food, and it does not have to be fancy. When Trine was living in Århus, we always went to the same Vietnamese restaurant to eat pho, but after she has moved to Fredericia, Djengis Khan Mongolian Barbecue (or, The Mongolian, as most people call it) has become our new favorite place to go.

After you have picked whatever you want from the buffet with raw ingredients, the staff will help you add the different sauces for the frying. I always have the same mix of lamb meat, noodles, bamboo shoots and mushroom, while Trine’s preferred mix consists of different kinds of meat and a minimum of vegetables. It is ready in a few minutes and it tastes delicious.

The Mongolian has been there as long as I remember. They have the nicest staff, but we’ve never really talked. Though the last time we were there, the Chinese woman (I think she is the owner?) asked us where we were from. We told her that we both were adopted from Korea, but she didn’t really seem to believe us. After a while she proclaimed that I looked Chinese and Trine? Was she maybe from Greenland?!?

Want to know what’s going on beyond the blog? My newsletter is where I share a more personal side of my life, the trips I’m planning, the recipes I’m cooking, and the everyday moments that don’t always make it to the blog. If you’d like to stay in the loop and get a first look at what’s happening at Mitzie Mee, I’d love for you to join.

Welcome to my Denmark Blog. I was adopted from South Korea and grew up in a small village in Jutland. I have lived abroad for most of my adult life, but Denmark is still home. This is where I have my base, and where I return between trips. On the blog I write about Denmark as I experience it. The cities and the coastline, cafes and restaurants, walks in the forest or along the water, weekends away, and small breaks from everyday life. This blog is my take on Denmark. A mix of nostalgia and new discoveries from the country I call home.
