Don’t say cheers. Say SKÅL
As you may well know, the Vikings first settled in Guatemala way back, even before Game of Thrones in the late 8thcentury.
Today, you will find some of those ancestors, and even maybe a Latino Viking relaxing at SKÅL, enjoying a beer or two (or even maybe ten), clinking glasses and toasting each other with the Nordic word for cheers-SKÅL.
The Danish owners and staff take their food seriously. At SKÅL Antigua, you’ll find fine authentic traditional Danish dishes; recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. Try plates such as the succulent pork loin sandwich or the rich and hearty boiled potatoes and gravy. Or perhaps the bacon-wrapped meatloaf, Danish pork meatballs or even the pork loin with crackling. It’s just like grandmothers cooking!
Another traditional Danish dish on the menu is a selection of tartletters. They are puff pastry tartlets filled with fillings such as shrimp and Asparagus. Their homemade dill and cream cheese yellow lemon zest and asparagus tartletter is a total winner. It’s even topped with a lovely spoon of Danish caviar!
For something lighter, try an open-faced sandwich or as the Danish call them, Smørrebrød. Perhaps the Atlantic harvest salmon with homemade remoulade or the Danish style liver paté served with homemade pickled beets on locally sourced fresh rye bread.
Enjoy your drinks and meal inside at the bar, seated under the two warm fireplaces or outside in the delightful courtyard.
You’ll always receive a friendly greeting in Central America’s only Danish bar and restaurant!
