Day 38: Mr. P has a Danish for breakfast

IMG_7488

Waiting for the train to Stockholm to arrive, we bought breakfast. Tea and a danish.

And the funny thing is, in both Swedish and Danish, a danish is called wienerbröd, which more or less translates to ‘Vienna pastry’. This is due to the pastry being an invention of Austrian bakers that were brought to Denmark during a baker’s strike. So, in a sense, it’s a true cosmopolitan creation, being Danish but with Austrian origins.
