Impossible perfect experience

We – A family of 4 (two daughters of 6 and 11) were arriving from Stockholm by train that day scouting for a dinner restaurant in Malmö on Google maps.

When we found this gem, it was of course fully booked so we put ourselves down for the waiting list. When we arrived at the hotel to drop our bags off my wife made a call and managed to secure a table by the bar.

Don’t know if intentional but they had placed the toilets outside of the restaurant, so when we walked in everyone was in the right mood. We entered through a pathway with a beautiful vase lit up in the background. Upon entering the dinner area there was two other groups waiting to get seated and it was generally a busy environment. Never the less I got eye contact after 5 seconds with the waiter who nodded at me with a friendly look that said “Welcome, I see you and we will attend to you soon”.

You could notice that they paid attention to get the details right, dark oak wood furniture, polished black metal details and the light was done giving the place a comfy yet toned down and sleek environment interior.

Shortly after seated we were pleasantly surprised they had both our favorite champagne Louis Roederer by the glass and also the Japanese beer Hitachino on the menu. Both are rare finds in Sweden. This place deserves six stars on Google just because of their drink selection. Every interaction with the waiters was playful and you could almost sense the positive culture in the staff. The food was beautiful and delicious packed with Umami, to the point that we had to stop our kids from licking the plates.

To close the perfection we had the cheesecake and discovered that one of the waiters was from the Basque Country. Having visited last summer we exchanged some recommendations of restaurants in San Sebastián and although the cheesecake here was delicious he told me with pride it is better in Donostia. If you ever had basque cheesecake you’d agree with him.

Then to the best part: 7-8 dishes, 3 glasses of champagne and a beer for 1500 kr. The only complaint I have is that I have to go 6 hours by train from Stockholm to revisit.

Amazing tapas, not a big menu but everything is 10/10👍 starting with the shrimp with an amazing soy glaze sauce, then the crispy chicken with salad, the salmon with sake sauce was to die for. The drinks were great and staff was kind. Loved everything😍
