in stockholm, sweden (april’24)

first meal in stockholm maybe my favourite meal, was quite unimpressed with the food in this city. most places were too salty for me or just overall unimpressive especially in comparison with the neighbouring nordic cities when they have access to so much great produce.

started with a piece of buttered toast with a shrimp and mayo salad with a generous scoop of lojrom roe which was quite nice. but mostly impressed with the swedish meatballs here, first time trying it properly and quite impressed by the blends of beef and pork here, not overly meaty in flavour and the texture was just right for me. really liked the gravy as well and the mash was adequately creamy. love the side of pickles and ligonberries to help break the meatiness, definitely a dish to try here in sweden and this place does it very solid.

we also got a swedish fish soup which was a a good balance of light creaminess, resembled a lobster bisque in flavour but even lighter. very different to the french style which is more decadent and richer in ‘sea-water’ brininess. they also served it with generous chunks of salmon, fennel and dill. a very nice place for trying traditional swedish food, ambience was also very laid back and romantic.
