Danish Seamen’s Chuch Fair – Hot Dogs, Glogg… Sjovt!

By on November 23, 2008 1:18 pm in Brooklyn Heights, Events, Food, Fun

The Danish Seamen’s Chuch [102 Willow Street] held its annual Danish Fair this weekend.   We chomped on hot dogs and guzzled Glogg while checking out all the wonderful Christmas ornaments for sale.  While Mrs. Fink insists that Glogg is just “mulled wine” our Danish friends at the Fair say, “Nej glog er meget bedre.”

Either way make your own with this recipe.  Unless you have a better one — comment below.
