the creative director of Julian Group, who
designed both markets. “We’ve created
a number of small corners and rooms
within the main space, where people can
be private but still part of the market.
Quite often, guests say it feels like being
at a festival, because there is so much to
taste and look at — the stalls, performing
artists and, of course, all the other visi-
tors. Food markets are a great place for
people watching.”


The concept has been awarded a num-
ber of prizes, including one by the Nordic
region’s leading gourmet guide White


Guide, which rated Storms Pakhus
among the top ten best street food/take-
away concepts in Denmark.

Like Storms Pakhus in Odense, Reffen
is located in an old industrial area by
the water. The design of the market is
inspired by the local history, as well as a

nationalities and this is reflected in the
design of the containers. Whether it’s
an organic juice truck, Peruvian cevi-
che stall, Italian organic polenta truck, a
Romanian BBQ stall or a Danish sau-
sage truck, they are like small post-
cards from all over world,” Husted says.
