Dine In Design In Stockholm
In Stockholm, eating out is a feast for all senses. The foucus isn’t just on the food but also on the décor and design. Here is a selection of restaurants and bars to tempt both the eye and the mouth.
Fredsgatan 12, www.f12.se
The celebrity restaurateur Melker Andersson’s empire of restaurants is all into both design and food. Fredsgatan 12 (F12) is found at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and has a Guide Michelin star. With 13 years under its belt, Fredsgatan 12 is a modern classic. The levels of ambition and creativity are still on top. First class, innovative food in a crisp, stylish and relaxed setting.
Nox, www.nox.se
The idea is that absolutely anyone should feel at home at Nox, whatever their lifestyle or age. This is a fashionable spot with soul and character, serving high-class traditional Swedish food. The magnificent inner courtyard, with its Bedouin-like tent, is a sight to behold in itself. The name Nox is a play on words, since the building was previously a bank; Nox as in Fort Knox – in other words, secure. Today, it is the kitchen which occupies the former bank vault.
Restaurant Lux www.luxstockholm.com
Enjoy an interior based on Nordic elements such as linen, wood, glass and colours from the palette of the Swedish artist Carl Larsson. The restaurant aimed at creating an environment so harmonious that our guests can relax and concentrate fully on food, wine and company.
Absolut Ice Bar, www.nordicseahotel.com
The Ice Bar at the Nordic Sea Hotel hardly needs any further introduction. It was the world’s first permanent icebar, open all year round. Since the temperature is kept at a chilly minus five degrees, all guests are given a cloak and gloves to keep them warm.
Restaurant Bauer, www.bauersthlm.se
To capture the ever changing neighbourhood of Södermalm, the decoration of restaurant Bauer strives to feel like an art gallery, with inspiration from the 1920’s Bauhaus and Berlin’s new gallery culture. While eating delicious Spanish-influenced food you can rest your eyes on the amazing art on the walls of this trendy restaurant.
