RESTAURANTS
Stockholm's restaurant scene is a melting pot of flavors from around the world, but of course the best of Swedish cuisine is served as well, often in contemporary interpretations. Here you will find carefully prepared ingredients such as game, fish and shellfish, and the best that Swedish farms have to offer. Desserts often incorporate Swedes’ traditional and beloved blueberries, lingonberries and cloudberries. Select a dish with the flavors of the Swedish sea or forest, or enjoy a traditional smörgåsbord with herring, salmon and many other delicacies - and Swedish meatballs, of course!
