A great place for a Swedish fika stop: Café Vete-Katten (21. October 2022)
Even though it isn’t too cold yet, with around 10 degrees it was not too warm after the walking tour, and we decided to get into a little coffee, which had good ratings on Google – and I understand why. You queue, and you get your drinks and food at the counter. We went for […]
A lovely atmosphere and a simple but great lunch menu: Restaurant Spiritmuseum (21. October 2022)
After two weeks in Saudi Arabia, I was keen to try some non-Middle Eastern dishes, and what better place to do so than Stockholm?! The ‘Spiritmuseum’ is a museum dedicated to, as the name suggests, spirits, so booze. But it also has a nice little restaurant to the side which offers a small menu. Once […]
Very traditional local dishes you’d normally not have for breakfast: Restaurant Fäviken Magasinet (12. May 2019)
After a luscious meal in the evening, it was time to also try breakfast (250 SEK) in the Fäviken Magasinet. The table is preset and you don’t get to pick what you want to eat but the selection is sufficient … … with a freshly prepared jam … … a traditional cheese as well as […]
The best king crab I’ve ever had: Restaurant Fäviken Magasinet (11. May 2019)
I was first inspired by the Fäviken when I saw the episode on Chef’s Table in October last year. The idea of going to an absolutely remote location to try exquisite food was really appealing to me. However, actually getting there turned out to be much more of a hassle than initially expected. After flying […]
French galette with a Norwegian twist: Restaurant Crêperie & Logi Åre (11. May 2019)
If you are arriving from Trondheim to Järpen where the Fäviken Magasinet is located, make sure that you either bring food or plan well enough so your timing is on point with regards to a short food break. On my way there, I decided to stop in Åre as this was kind of the largest […]
22. March 2010: Restaurang @Hotel Hellsten
The Hotel Hellsten is located right in the city center close to the metro stop Rådmansgatan, really close to the Stockholm School of Economics. The hotel itself is a really nice, cozy place. The rooms are nice and clean, the bathroom is really nice looking with it’s all-stone interior design and the bar is really […]
21. March 2010: Restaurang Café Kaffekoppen
The restaurant Café Kaffekoppen is situated on the island of Gamla stan (the metro stop is also called like this) right on the same place as the Matcafe Misteln. There are two entrances – one right to the front of the place where the nobel museum is located. The other one basically right across the […]
20. March 2010: Restaurang Brasserie Stuket
The Brasserie Stuket is situated on the Stockholm island of Södermalm (historically like the Bronx in New York but nowadays the most fancy area in Stockholm – I’ve been told by a sightseeing tour guide). You can get to the restaurant by a 10-minutes footwalk from the metro station “Medborgarplatsen”. The Stuket is in a […]
