When it comes to a culinary adventure, it can be difficult to tell whether or not a feeling of…read morefamiliarity is a good sign. At times it suggests that a concept is overdone or unoriginal, and at other times that familiarity strikes us at a more profound level -- as if we've been there before in a past life, or as if there's something there that feels like home. I was lucky to find this feeling at a stunning café nestled into the greenery of Djurgården in southern Stockholm, a beacon of warmth and light amidst the afternoon chill. My traveling companion and I had spent the morning perusing the vast collections at Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde, finding ourselves enchanted by the glorious staterooms and the expertly curated painting exhibitions. It's a known fact that museums always tend to make me hungry, and so after exploring the grounds I was just about ready for something to nibble on. By this point in my Swedish adventure, fika had become the most cherished hour (or several) of the day. From cardamom buns to princess cake, I had become fully absorbed in this tradition and was fully committed to incorporating it into my life back in the States. While the simplest translation is "a coffee break," for my traveling companion and I had had become so much more -- an invitation to unwind, to take refuge from the Swedish cold, and perhaps most importantly, to indulge a little. This stunning spot came at a recommendation of a friend of mine who had studied in Copenhagen for a semester and ended up here on a class trip. Luckily, this friend has impeccable taste. Rooted in (pun intended) community, Rosendals Trädgård is a veritable jack-of-all trades. From producing many of their own ingredients on site to serving treats and hearty fare alike, there is so much that this place gets right. To get to the café you walk past a series of plots alive in the soil, wondering what grows there and who planted it. When you reach the café you find that it's a real greenhouse, steeped in sunlight and awash in a rich sea of blues. It's beautiful on the outside, and even more gorgeous on the inside. Something about the self-serve style setup made me feel like I was at a friend's house for tea, contributing to the delightfully homey feel that had seeped into every corner of the abode. I sampled a couple of cookies from the buffet, and my dining companion did the same. When we took our seats, we found that each bite left us feeling warm and comforted despite the nip of Swedish spring beyond the walls of the greenhouse. It was a simple meal, an afternoon pick-me-up, yet it seemed to fill us up in spirit the same way a four-course meal would have filled our bellies. For a plate full of something that feels like home even if you're thousands of miles away from your own, Rosendals Trädgård is an immaculate refuge. Just like the plants that grow on its grounds, you'll find yourself feeling cherished and tended to. What more can we ask of a meal? Read more reviews at letsgetdinner8.wordpress.com.

The walk is absolutely gorgeous and it makes you feel as if you're stepping into an oasis away from Stockholm. They had some Christmas decorations up and a tree, so it felt very festive, even if most of the trees were bare for winter. I loved the meal setup -- there were some quick bites available to grab, as well as pastries, and there were dishes you could order. I got an Asian slaw sandwich and a saffransbulle (LOVE these). I also opted for one of their flavored hot teas, because it was cold in Stockholm in November! The food was great in the cafe, but even better was the plant shop next door! They had Christmas ornaments for sale, as well as lots of handcrafted items and lots of plants. Definitely worth a visit!

However none of this is explained at sign in. Once you fight for your outdoor table you then have to get back in line to place the food order. After waiting 30 minutes for a table I happily stood in line to order my breakfast only to be told that ordering had been paused for 1.5 hours, on a Sunday. This restaurant needs to run an effective seating and kitchen operation. Too bad.

Recommend if you're looking for a great coffee and pastry spot, convenient to city center. Outdoor seating if you're lucky enough to land a spot. If not, there's a nice park across the way, if you order take away.

Although the passageway where the interior seating is situated seemed awkward it actually worked out well. Service, despite a crowd, was fairly quick, I would rate the coffee an A or 9/10 on the scale of strength, low acidity/smoothness. It is espresso based and made to exact order. There are serval options for milk (whole, oat, 1/2 and 1/2, etc). The major complaint would be that there is no easy place to throw away your rubbish, nor is there a place that is clearly evident to bust your dishes, which is much needed given that this is a super busy place.. The staff is too busy to bus tables regularly, which backs up the availability of seating . This is the major reason for a one star deduction.. TIP: You can buy beans or ground coffee for home brewing.

The wraps, burritos, warm bowls, soups and salads are almost up to American sized portions, but the good thing is that it's all pretty healthy! I love being able to customize my food choices, so this place is great for that. They have little papers on mini clipboards that allow you to take your time selecting exactly what you want. All you have to do is hand over the paper when your done filling it out! =) Or, if you don't want to do all that work you can pick from the ready made menu, which isn't bad either! I can highly recommend the Grilled Tex-Mex Burrito (I added ranch dressing! Couldn't believe they actually had real ranch dressing here in Sweden!) --yum yum yum yum yum yum yum! Perfect for a visit after a tough workout at Sturebadet down the street! =)

Most of their foods come in compostable and environmentally friendly to-go containers, which I really loved since I could just bring any leftovers home easily. Since I had to bring food for a flight the next day any way, I decided to buy myself another one of their vegan meals, which had loads of quinoa and chickpeas, beets, and other vegetables! All the foods I ate were so perfectly seasoned, well cooked, and very healthy. I love finding places like Doktor Mat whenever I travel, since it allows me to nourish my body while I still taste a bit of the culture and environment. Every meal or purchase comes with a shot of apple cider vinegar + turmeric. It's a really nice touch to healthify their customers even more! The friendly man taking my order was so helpful and accommodating to my requests and questions especially since they didn't have an English menu and I could not understand half of what was on the menu (in terms of ingredients, description, etc). I got the miso salmon meal, which was so perfectly seasoned and cooked! It's not fully cooked, but it's not fully raw either. It's barely cooked, but the texture is so smooth and nearly melts in your mouth. It came with a few other vegetables in their own unique salad/dressing/marinated form, which I loved! Definitely a go-to if I ever go back to Stockholm!

Located next to its Michelin 2 star sister restaurant, this restaurant is owned by the same people. In fact one of the owners was back in the kitchen working this evening. Speceriet services mid size plates big enough to share but small enough to eat on your own. Dishes change frequently based on their farm to table ingredients availability. They recommend you to get 4 dishes if arriving in a pair, and they do not think you need more though most people would want to try to get more than 4 things of this incredibly assembled menu, as they are reasonable and each thing is unique. For this evening, things that piqued my interests were raw fish with juniper oil, cod with almond and salsify, duck and deer. But oh wait, how could I not order moose tartar? Add that please. It did not have elk but I had elk last night. So not too bummed. Given the current US politics, those of us in Blue States would not be caught dead in red states, leaving the only option to eat exotic game meat to Scandinavia. Last year I was fortunate enough to visit Alaska and Bergen, Norway back to back. I had finally got myself over the hump of reindeer meat and elk and moose. I was also incredibly greedy with the cod business, because when cod is fresh it tastes creamy and soft and without strong fish flavor, though oily, it's a treat if you can get your hands on it. None of the dishes were overly complicated but the dishes had all very distinct, nordic taste while being incredibly innovative in terms of seasoning, ingredients, and flavors. The combination of varies items in a dish was a bit of a surprise, but they all worked very well. Then there is the price point, everything on the menu were between $14 to $19. Dessert was less than $10 and it all comes with complimentary drinks before dinner. You can easily fill yourself with 2 things, and chances are you are going to pay for less than $40 per person because these prices already include tax. Stockholm, being the capital city of Scandinavia, often prides itself for being relatively affordable. Now with the USD SKR exchange rate favoring USD, it seems much more affordable all of sudden. I don't know if this is the norm in Stockholm or I hit the jackpot but the food was a bargain considering the quality and quantity. Make a reservation. Arrive on time. Be prepared to spend at least 2 hours here if you are into food. Now that I've done a tour (again) of this town's who's who restaurant business, all of sudden I don't feel so in dire needs of consuming true Scandinavian food in the Bay Area or New York. I can wait until I return here again.
