I don't know about Denmark but I lived in Sweden for a while. The names might be similar but they really don't mean the same thing at all. This realization came to me when I first bought some "spices" from the supermarket or had some "Indian food" take out. The GCC countries, IMO, have the highest food quality anywhere in the world, authentic cuisines as they taste in their native countries are ubiquitous, and we have them all, but even your MacDonalds and KFCs taste 10 times better than they do in the states or anywhere else I been to. Local food as well is the most fulfilling thing you'll ever put in your stomach.

All I can say is, if you ever paid Dubai or any GCC city a visit you'll immediately notice the difference, I really can't describe it.
