Danish chef rolls up with gourmet feasts on Copenhagen cargo bike tours
Hopping off his custom-built bicycle-turned-portable kitchen, Danish chef Morten Kryger Wulff started whipping up a feast of tantalising, original dishes – served with a generous side of nature. The 56-year-old chef, a veteran of prestigious kitchens across Europe, got the idea more than two decades ago to take his cooking to the great outdoors, leading customers on a gastronomic bike ride through Copenhagen – with delectable food served at every stop. On a sunny weekday in July, grilled seaweed, dill cream, bean fricassee, Nordic pizza and blackcurrant ice cream were on the menu for the ride from the Danish capital's harbour to the Amager Nature Park. 'This is as close as I can come to nature, cooking-wise, in a chef way,' said Wulff. The tour lasts about four hours total, covering 3 to 5km (2 to 3 miles). It is broken into bike rides of about 15 minutes each, in between which the chef gets off his bike, unfolds his table and starts cooking.

This Weber Flat Top Griddle Is so Cheap Right Now ($279), I Thought It Was a Typo
This is not a drill: Weber's three-burner flat top griddle is down to a laughably low $279 (normally $449) at Ace Hardware right now. Forget Amazon Prime Day -- well, except for these bangers -- this is the best summer grill deal you're likely to find all year. Flat top griddles, made popular by brands like Blackstone and Weber have made big waves in the outdoor cooking space. They're loved by owners for both versatility and convenience. Griddles may take a smidge of maintenance to avoid rusting, but day-to-day use doesn't require scrubbing grates or picking food out from the grill's basin.

Another check in the advantages column for flat top grills is the ability to cook certain foods that you can't on a normal grill. I'm talkin' breakfast fare like scrambled eggs, pancakes, and bacon, as well as flaky fish that tends to break apart when sizzled over grates. Yep, now you can even make bacon on the grill like you've always dreamed. Weber Why this deal matters I personally tested Weber's flat top griddle and, per the brand's high standards, this unit was well built and outperformed others in its price class. The ignition system worked every time, and the three burners distributed heat evenly across the flat top griddle. Assembly took about 45 minutes and the grill sports two handy prep shelves and rolls around on wheels if you need to move it. Ace Hardware is selling Weber's premium griddle for just $279 -- A cool $170 off the normal price. Take a look at other retailers, and you'll see that this is a seriously good bargain on a seriously good griddle.
