24th May 2015 at 05:55Her er der serveret for turisterne, der bliver sluset ind fra krydstogtskibene. Udvalget er skræddersyet: kongeligt porcelæn, sølvtøj og krystal, smykker, gamle duge og legetøj. Ikke noget der får det til at gibbe i en gennemsnits Københavner, og slet ikke til prisen, der er helt oppe og kysse loftet. Jeg kommer der alligevel, for især på solskinsdagene er det hyggeligt at slentre igennem med en kop kaffe, og suge til sig af atmosfæren. Blot skal man abstrahere fra de til tider uforskammede sælgere, der tydeligvis ikke er der for at hygge sig. Det er det sure med det søde, her, men man vænner sig til det.
