"I didn't care about the facade, so already on the day of the takeover, September 15, 1984, I had the clapboards demolished," says Jannick. "Then I stood looking at a facade from the 1920s. Fortunately, nothing had been changed in it. The paint had faded and peeled off, but otherwise the facade was not damaged. It was incredibly beautiful in itself. I talked to the artists from Galleri Asbæk , which was in the street at the time. They had started to come to us - also because I already knew some of them from Frimands Kvarter: 'You mustn't touch anything. Leave it as it is.' But I didn't dare let it peeling off. Or rather: my mother didn't care for it! I could tell it had something about it. Originally - before the tavern period - it was a freight forwarding business, and it said something like: Standard Spedition, transport to in - and abroad, coal and coke are brought in. I managed to find a nice color for the facade. The artists from Asbæk thought that the bar should just be called Palæ 4271, which was the old telephone number it appeared on the facade. But my original idea went to call it Babar after the cartoon of the same name and then have a logo of King Babar - the elephant. My mother called the artist Laurent de Brunhoff at his castle in France, but he wanted 80,000 kroner to give us permission to use the logo. That's why the name became Palæ 4271 Bar, and over time it has become Palæ Bar. "
"Before Jannick signed the sales papers, he demanded that the staff should continue working. Peter Fredholt looked at him: "Well, so do I!" Touché. Everyone was happy. Owners, staff and guests. Peter knew what he was getting into : "I knew Tony from Ambrosius and Tommy from Amager, but I didn't know Bjarke. But they had all been in the pub business for many years, so I had to be on the mark. I walked in to three faucets. Shut up, how could they yell at each other. Mostly Tony and Bjarke, while Tommy shouted somewhat less. Occasionally I had to pull them apart, but they were experienced lads and they always made sure the business ran to everyone's satisfaction. Tony was great at talking with both his mouth and his fists. Bjarke was the wise one with an enormous knowledge of music. Tommy is the super attentive, sensible and charming. What a trefoil I got on the men's side, and Maj Britt completed the four-leaf clover!".
