Experience in Odense, Denmark by Davide

What is it like to live in Odense? Would you recommend it? What is the city like?

The city is a real student-city. There are many bars and it is a nice city where there can be done many activities such as playing football, basket, and other sports. There are several cinemas and a lot of bars and restaurant (most of them have the same menu-card). The city is not big so it is easy to walk around and you will not need a lot of time to become your own Odense-expert.

I do not really know.

What is the food like? Can you tell us your favourite spots?

The food in general in Odense is not especially good, and you can pay a lot. There are many places with buffet, Chinese, Turkish. Otherwise I would recommend Flammen which is really good. If you like a lot of meat, this might be one of the best places I have been! 25-30 all you can eat. Beverage is though quite expensive.

It is a lot of fun. Go on Thursdays with the other students. It is better than in the weekends. LA-bar is a lot of fun!
