Right now @oddbird is doing a takeover at the rooftop bar @imacocktailbar at TAK, Stockholm. Very impressed by the delicious mocktails created by Alexander Mannerfors @mr_mannerfors 🌿 The terrace at beautiful sunny days like today is also worth a visit on its own. Open this week and on Saturday they are also doin an Omakase pairing with the drinks 👍🏼

Nettle ravioli with split peas in a rich broth by head chef @jonathankasche at Emmer. Spring is on its way and the beautiful restaurant @restaurangemmer located at Ulriksdals Värdshus is soon opening up again in April. They have a huge garden and a couple of greenhouses where they farm most of their veggies, berries and loads of flowers in scenic surroundings. Well worth a visit 🌿

Snapshots from the old fishmarket Tsukiji in Tokyo

Snapshots from the old fishmarket Tsukiji in Tokyo just before they moved to it’s new location. Went there straight away after a long night out and managed to get into the tuna auction. Most certainly one of the first cities I will visit when traveling is possible again 🖤

AIRA - the ambitious and fairly new restaurant by

AIRA - the ambitious and fairly new restaurant by chef @tommymyllymaki located in the royal park of Djurgården, Stockholm. The gastronomy is focused on Nordic produce, using traditional techniques with flavor profiles from all around the world. Last time I checked they had a couple of available seats in March where I think you def. should try out their chef’s table. The tasting menu is priced at 2750 sek and wine pairing 1850 sek but an a la carte menu is also available. When we can’t travel, we can at least treat our selves with luxurious restaurant experiences 🖤

Visiting Japanese glassblower @yoko_yamano today in her studio outside of Stockholm. You have probably seen some of here work in my cocktail photos and more to come.. A mesmerizing experience to watch her craftsmanship and how she handles the temperature of the glass mass that is both so viscous and fragile at the same time. Head over to her page and check out her work 👍🏼

Stockholms Bränneri RÖD aperitif served on the rocks with dried rowan berries. A delightful drink with a base of fortified Swedish, organic, apple cider infused with rowanberries, gentian root and orange peel which gives the tasty notes and fine balance between sweet, sour and bitter. To get a luxurious spritz - add some tonic and a wedge of grape.
Enjoy your weekend 🖤✨

Spicy curries and hot Kahwa saffron tea up in the

Spicy curries and hot Kahwa saffron tea up in the mountains of Kashmir. An incredible region with very rustic food and friendly people. The region is divided between India, Pakistan and China and the food in the Gulmarg mountains are much like the food in northern India. Savory and hearty - with loads of different spices, nuts and fruits being farmed in the valley. Their rare saffron is famous world wide for its superior quality and a local speciality with the pistils is Kahwa. A tea made with saffron, cardamom and cinnamon with pistachios, almonds and honey.

Calabrian spicy rigatoni with pomodorini and ’nd

Calabrian spicy rigatoni with pomodorini and ’nduja. A delicious and easy dish where the spicy soft salami from the Italian toe really gives an extra punch.
-
I heat up a pan with extra virgin olive oil and 1 thinly chopped red onion. When translucent I turn down the heat and add two cloves of chopped garlic, a pinch of salt, about 100g mashed ‘nDuja (adjust after your spicyness preference) and 500g of sweet Italian cherry tomatoes. Stir around and watch the soft sausage melt and let them cook together on medium heat for approx 15-20 min . Mash the tomatoes when they soften and keep stirring. Balance the dish with a touch of salt, white vinegar and sugar (if needed ofc. Just a little at the time and then taste). Let the sauce cook together with 400g al dente rigatoni for a minute. Serve with a grassy extra virgin olive oil, basil, parmigiano and some sea salt 👌🏼🍝

Congee - a rice soup/porridge popular in many asia

Congee - a rice soup/porridge popular in many asian regions that is quite similar to a risotto. This one above in @jenniewallden latest book at p.76 served with egg, kimchi, spring onions, sesame seeds, deep fried shallots and chili oil. But you could for example also add leftover chicken, fried shiitake or more fresh greens, no strict rules like in an Italian risotto here.. Simply a savory dish perfect for these cold days 👍🏼

My 10 most memorable dining experiences in 2020 -

My 10 most memorable dining experiences in 2020 - a year of restrictions that we hopefully soon can leave behind us.
1. Chef @bjornfrantzen at @restaurantfrantzen - phenomenal service and food in a relaxed atmosphere. So happy and thankful to finally visit the first and only three starred restaurant in Sweden.
2. My favorite dinner of the year was at @agrikulturrestaurant - the food @filipfasten with team put together that night was out of this world.
3. @nomacph during the Seafood season the last night before everything shut down in March.
4. A yearly visit to the best pizza napolitana place in Sweden is a must - @lilla_napoli in Falkenberg❤️
5. Met up with chef @filipgemzell at @restaurangang in Ästad and had so many delicious dishes. Looking forward to see Filip running the restaurant in a separate building in the future to elevate the experience even further.
6. This almond cake with rhubarb and cream at @hortebrygga last summer was my happiest dessert moment 2020.
7. Craftsmanship, details and interesting stories presented with loads of humbleness at @restaurantnour - looking forward to see @sayan_isaan with team open up again.
8. Summer evenings at @matateljen - loads of beautiful greens, natural wines and a relaxed atmosphere.
9. @maxkallsjo from @baragrikultur visited my favorite bakery @bageripetrus and put together this amazing piece of Smörgåstårta during a Friday lunch. More of these guest appearances this year I hope @petrus.jakobsson ?
10. A delicious menu straight from the garden at Ulriksdals Värdshus gently prepared by @jonathankasche at @restaurangemmer - a tough year to start a new restaurant for sure but I hope they make it through the pandemic. The garden out there is worth a visit on its own ⭐️
-
Many of these experiences have been with fellow food enthusiasts @sthlmfoodie & @stockholmfood and I’m looking forward to a year filled with new delicious experiences 🖤
Stay safe, be respectful and support all the businesses you actually care about.

Le Gruyère d’Alpage AOP in the making in a smal

Le Gruyère d’Alpage AOP in the making in a small cottage outside Mòleson. The cheese is produced in the Swizz Alps during the summer months. It owes its typically fine flavour to the great variety of the pasture lands and the alpine flora, as well as to the first-class unpasteurised milk from the local cows. The skill of the cheesemakers and affineurs is key and the Alpage has got some more wild and funky tones compared to a classic Gruyère AOP cheese.

🇹🇭 Pad Kra Pao, a typical street food dish on many of the markets in Bangkok. This one was a year ago at the Klong Toei market - right before everything changed. I can’t complain at all about this past year but my desire for exotic markets around the world is so strong. Meanwhile we are getting vaccinated, we can at least travel through flavours and smell. The dish above is a quick and easy one with ingredients available pretty much everywhere. Prepare the Pad Kra Pao by frying garlic, loads of chili, minced pork and then add cauliflower, fish sauce, oyster sauce, holy basil, sugar and lime. Stir over very high heat and eat as it is or serve with rice👌🏼

In collaboration with @schneiderelectric_home - Wh

In collaboration with @schneiderelectric_home - When we designed our kitchen we wanted all our socket outlets to be very minimalistic but in a classic fashion. Therefore we chose the Schneider “Renova” single sockets. Besides the socket outlets we also installed plenty of Renova dimmer switches (universal that works for both led and bulbs). In my opinion this is key to get a soft ambient light in every corner and space of the room. We mounted them separately instead of having them combined in one single frame (as you can se in the second photo, just an aesthetic decision we like a lot more). In my highlighted stories you can see all the products, materials and thoughts behind our choices during the remodeling.
If you have any questions just let me know in the comments and I will try answering them 👍🏼

Hamachi dry aged for 37 days by chef Harry @hazzad

Hamachi dry aged for 37 days by chef Harry @hazzadelic at @restaurantnour in Stockholm. Just like aging a great piece of meat, aging fish helps intensify the flavours with loads of umami and also gives it a more tender texture. In the last photo @sayan_isaan served the Hamachi with frozen butter milk, roe and a beautiful lovage broth.
Currently the restaurant is closed during the tougher restrictions, so instead they are doing a popup in Humlan called @nourburger - selling a hundred Katsu Sando burgers each day. Opens at 11:30 👍🏼
