Dear Members and Friends,
This month's newsletter is packed with delicious news stories from our members. We have been focusing on those within the hospitality sector, some for whom, have now been able to open for outdoor serving.
We have packed events agenda, from looking at how to reignite your business after lockdown as well as bringing to life the Special Forces Hero, Anders Lassen in an open Q&A with the writer.
We have also planned our first physical get together in partnership with EKTE Nordic Kitchen, where we will be hosting a traditional Pinse Lunch. We can’t wait and we hope to see many of you there!
This month's editorial is written by Søren Jessen, owner of Jessen & Co that includes the well-known venue in the heart of the City of London – 1 Lombard and the new EKTE Nordic Kitchen.
Stay safe, and until next time.
Kind regards,
DKUK Team (Deanne, Helena & Gunnar)
