Located within the fitness sport complex IKSU Sport (see my separate review), a good number of…read moreyears ago two chefs (Hansson and Hammar) took it upon themselves to set up a good lunch restaurant within the IKSU complex that had been severely lacking in an otherwise impressive organization. I've had more lunches here than I could ever count nor remember. In between lectures, after exams, after really sweaty workouts, well pretty much after anything you may think of. And I've always liked it. It's modern, the food is well-prepared locally in the open kitchen. They also have an impressive salad buffet that will satisfy any stomach. The seating area is white with wooden floors, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows laden with partially see-through off-white curtains that lets a lot of sunlight through. Whenever I'm here I always find faces and people I recognize and join their table, leaving me totally satisfied. So if you are at the university campus, or for that matter the university hospital, this is the absolute best place for lunch within walking distance.

Patisserie heaven! Sugar therapy in small portions! Not typically a sweets fan but it's my second…read moretime here in a week. I have a weakness for intricately decorated tiny treats. Selection features princess cake (that round green thing with a crepe-like skin and layer of creme topped sponge cake... Which they've made look like a frog face) , icing covered raspberry jam tarts, chocolate balls covered with what looks like coconut or chocolate shavings, Swedish renditions of cheese cake and carrot cakes, whipped meringue tart with apple curd, almond tart (mandeltarte) with fudgy almond bits embedded... How can anyone come in here and order a stupid salad? If you pair something with coffee, it hasn't been too sweet so far... The staff were patient with explaining the contents of each baked good I asked about and suggested things I might like when I told them what i liked/didn't like.
