Hall Pass
Östermalms Saluhall
Östermalmstorg, 114 42 Stockholm
With its impressive medieval-style brick façade and setting in a chic neighborhood, Östermalms Saluhall easily lives up to its reputation as one of the top food halls in the world. And the interior is no less impressive: filled with small restaurants and ornately carved wooden stalls piled with tempting baked goods, fresh produce and all manner of pristine Scandinavian delicacies, from reindeer to smoked herring.
The Wild and Elegant
Frantzén
111, 28 Stockholm, +46 8 20 85 80
In recent years, the global food cognoscenti has fallen hard for the cooking style known as “New Nordic Cuisine,” an earthy, elegant approach which teases remarkable results from native ingredients and wild and foraged foods. Although the style is closely associated with chef Rene Redzepi of Copenhagen’s Noma, Stockholm is home to another of the movement’s most acclaimed masters: Björn Frantzén, whose restaurant of the same name has earned a spot on the prestigious Pellegrino list of World’s Best Restaurants for three years running. Indeed, Frantzén’s bright, spare dining room and eye-opening, obsessively crafted morsels—like blood and liver pancake with cherries and violet and elk with cabbage and truffles—make it a must-do for any gourmand passing through town.
