This map is so named by Herb Lester Associates because their visits to the capital of Denmark fill them with envy for those who live in this most civilized city. The entries focus on Copenhagen's thriving new food scene and also on its highly evolved sense of design, the two of which frequently intersect.  This guide details sources of mid-century cookware, cinnamon rolls and organic hot dogs, grand shops and tiny cafés, a pleasure garden and a cemetery. It is the perfect companion for this most perfect of cities.

 

Herb Lester’s unique guides steer visitors towards the unusual, the underrated, the hip, the historic. 

They make their travel guides the old-fashioned way:  They write and research in-house or with the assistance of trusted locals, reading old guide books and welcoming the opportunity to revive old friendships in far-flung locales in the quest for on-the-ground knowledge.

This is a time-consuming and costly process, for which they accept no advertising and no free meals.  However, if the opportunity arises, they are glad of assistance with places to stay, since they do not cover hotels in their publications. All this means that what they include are the places and things they like and feel deserve your attention.

Litho-printed in England on recycled paper

The maps are litho-printed in England on sustainably sourced paper. This is a slower and more costly process than digital printing, but the difference in quality makes it worthwhile.
