From its HQ in Copenhagen, the furniture, lighting and accessories brand &Tradition continues to keep things fresh with an update of its onsite café, Lille Petra.
Named after architect Viggo Boesen’s funkis style lounge chair, the space is characterised by earthy tones and a muted colour palette, alongside pieces from the brand’s collection including various editions of Verner Panton’s iconic Flowerpot lamps, dark walnut chairs by mid-century designer duo Hvidt & Mølgaard, and elegant black round tables, which are the work of local studio Norm Architects.
Serving breakfast and lunch, the restaurant’s menu has been created together with Søren Westh, a chef and the founding partner of local culinary lab .506. Rich with local, fresh, organic ingredients, including herbs grown in the courtyard, expect revisited versions of Denmark’s signature smørrebrød open sandwiches, alongside warm rød grød porridge and classics such as herring served with toasted rye bread.
