Before the pandemic, life was very different for Danish expat Kjartan Hentze.

 

An experienced engineer of more than 20 years, Kjartan’s career working aboard fishing vessels took him all over the world.

 

A chief engineer with the highest certifications in marine and electrical engineering, he has worked across South America, Africa, Scandinavia and Europe in challenging conditions and environments.

 

Kjartan’s career and shift patterns – he often worked five weeks on and five weeks off – meant he was able to split his time between his work and Thailand.

Lagkagehuset in Christianshavn is the top standard for any baking I've ever tasted.

 

I wish the baker great success & the satisfaction of good product & a job worth doing.

 

Do you do mail order to Bangkok? Where's your menu & pricelist, please?
