Ten restaurants that will have
you coming back for seconds
Words by Hedvig Andersson
1. Matbaren
The more “rustic” of Mathias Dahlgren’s
Michelin-starred restaurants at
Stockholm’s Grand Hôtel is anything
but. Office workers rub shoulders with
hipsters in this spin on a corner restaurant,
where Vico Magistretti’s bright red
Carimate chairs and lamps by Verner
Panton, Poul Henningsen and Jørn
Utzon give you an inkling as to what
Sweden’s top chef means by “traditional
cuisine presented in a different [read
more refined] form”: steamed bun of
smoked pork with spicy apple, pickled
cucumber, crispy onion; sashimi of
scallop and fallow deer with coriander,
pickled onions, yuzu; leaves, sprouts,
herbs from Ugglarp.
Grand Hôtel. Södra Blaiseholmshamnen 6,
Stockholm, Sweden.
