MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
Two MICHELIN Stars: Excellent cooking, worth a detour!
No detail goes unnoticed at this contemporary Swedish beauty, sporting a sleek bar and open kitchen with Chef Emma Bengtsson at the helm. Enjoy the eponymous infused spirit along with bites from one of two tasting menus. Expect glazed earthenware, slate platters and wooden boxes cradling the likes of a medallion of North Sea cod, torched ever so slightly, and accompanied by a light-textured mussel foam and petite wedges of roasted red endive. Lean and tender duck breast sided by a petite block of compressed leg meat is dressed tableside with a beet sauce enriched with duck jus. The meal may end with a composition of green apple and fennel featuring rye cake, apple ice, bitter caramel and whipped, smoked crème fraîche.
