Free burgers up for grabs on Saturday at city-centre picnic

Copenhagen Cooking event will reward the early arrivals

Who said there’s no such thing as a free lunch? From 12:00 on Saturday, Hellman’s mayonnaise and Timm Vladimirs Køkken will be dishing out 200 free burgers to the first arrivals at a picnic at Israels Plads as part of the Copenhagen Cooking food festival.

There will be grass to sit on and DJs playing to ensure a good picnic atmosphere. After the first 200 burgers have been snapped up, it will still be possible to purchase one until 18:00 for 55 kroner.

Timm Vladimirs Køkken is a company that offers courses in gastronomy. The collaboration with Hellman’s is part of a campaign called ‘Upgrade your burger’, so you can expect some creative uses of mayonnaise.
