Here you'll find chokladfabriken- the clue being in the name, this place is a haven for chocolate fans (although they do have some pastries). We found ourselves on their super cosy platform of stairs in the cafe, you can take your shoes off, stretch out and read a book (though climbing down again can be a bit awkward!). The hot chocolate with marshmallow and jordgubbb meringue petit fours was a real treat, just right for a small fika and long conversation with friends. You can choose between white, milk and dark hot chocolate and they also do beautifully illustrated chocolate advent calendars at this time of year, By the end we were so comfy we had to force ourselves to leave!

As I am a tourist, I got that crazy milkshake with a cinnamon bun on top of it just for good measure of course. The cinnamon buns in Sweden are obviously exceptional as they originated from there- crunchy on the outside and warm, melted, soft cinnamon goodness on the inside. The waffles are delicious as well, regardless of which waffle you get. All in all, this is a great place to go to if you're visiting Stockholm!

I'm not sure what Swedish waffles and 1950s diners have in common, but this place makes it work for sure. We came in on a Sunday morning, and were able to get seated right away. My cousin and I both had the raspberry waffle with whipped cream (75 sek, approx $8USD.). The waffle was perfectly crispy and the jam was delicious, but it wasn't a particularly filling for the price, really just a treat. They had fancier offerings as well, for a bit more money, as well as savory combinations. I overheard from a neighboring table that you can order a waffle with both whipped cream and ice cream. Where was this information when I was ordering? Oh well, next time. I would visit Älskade Traditioner again, but perhaps only for dessert. Alternatively I may try one of their savory options for a full meal.

With no Desserts available at Meatballs - For The People it was after a pleasant walk through Söder…read morethat two guests found themselves at Åsö Konditori & Bageri, the two-story space at Åsögatan 102 remaining busy despite an hour during which many are normally at work as a result of comfortable confines and free WiFi plus some of Stockholm's best Pastries. Located on a largely residential street not far from the Metro Station and open seven-to-seven on Weekdays with slightly shorter hours on weekends, at least one Baker still present approaching 16h00 and presumably working on items for the next day, it was after browsing still-full shelves that six items were selected, the Café upstairs offering a pleasant place to dine as the majority of patrons filled seats outside. Using slightly different nomenclature than other Konditori around Stockholm, the Wienerbrod for instance dubbed Vaniljbulle thanks to the flavor of thick Custard inside its fluffy golden coils, it was with Princess Cake dressed pretty in Pink that one of the city's best slices was found, at least five separate layers including Cream and Raspberry Compote contributing to Pound Cake that was more buttery than others but still surprisingly light. Not about to pass on the classic Fika focused on throughout nine days in Sweden, Åsö's Cardamom Bun more leavened than others and thus open beneath the sugared top with a nice stretch to the Dough, it was with a dual layer of the same Raspberry Jam tasted earlier that a Katalan Tart shined while the Tosca also performed admirably, the now-predictable Chokladbol in this instance occurring by way of a "Lillebror" that replaced with Pearl Sugar around the Chocolate and Oat core.

Fine fine Nordic eating…read more * * * This is a bakery/cafe that covers the four basic food groups: 1) Bread 2) Pastry 3) Coffee 4) Lunch Five stars on all of the above. * * * Recipes here are standard Swedish. Where they make their mark is in execution. Let's start with the drip coffee. You know how in "Pulp Fiction" and "Twin Peaks" a running gag is Coffee that is so good, everyone stops everything they are doing to comment on how good the coffee is? Aso's drip coffee could be that amazing stop-everything coffee. My only regret is that I did not have Kyle MacLachlan or Harvey Keitel with me to enjoy a cup. * * * Lunch was Raksmorgas, a standard Swedish dish of shrimp, fresh dill, lemon, tomatoes and homemade mayonnaise on thinly sliced rye bread. Aso's adds a hard-boiled egg to the proceedings. What was so good about this? Just about everything. The shrimp were small but packed with flavor. Imagine the flavor intensity of a salami, but in small cold shrimp. Fresh dill is always wonderful. Fresh dill can make cardboard taste good. The hard boiled eggs were perfectly timed. Bright golden moist-crumbly yellow yolks. Most restaurants give you over-boiled rubbery yellow-green yolks. Net of cooking time, the eggs themselves were a lot better than the old commercial refrigerator eggs we get in the United States. I suspect these were fresh eggs. The decadent treat was the rye bread on the bottom. This covered with homemade mayonnaise. The difference between homemade mayonnaise and jar mayonnaise is like the difference between a real kiss and a picture of a kiss. The mayonnaise drips into the rye bread. So do the flavor leavings of the shrimp and the egg and the tomato. The result? Bread to die for. Sopping up the good stuff from your meal with bread is always good. Sopping up the good stuff from your meal with superior Swedish rye bread is over the top excellent. * * * How is the bakery as a bakery? Love of the life got a walnut bread with her salad that was first rate. It was stick to your ribs stuff. One roll's worth of walnut bread and you were fed for a week. And totally walnutted to boot. On the dessert side, they do have decadent blow-all-the-calories desserts. But many Swedish pastries are in the same family with English scones. These are meant to be a snack by themselves. Substantial. Restrained. Subtle but worthwhile flavor. I had a Katalan which is two thin layers of lingonberry filling between three layers of substantial pie crust. Katalan means "from Catalonia" and naturally there is nothing more Spanish than lingonberries. (Cough cough). Not a good dessert choice after a heavy meal, but it would have been perfect with coffee at four in the afternoon. * * * Overall, an absolutely fine establishment. And even better if your world stops spinning for good coffee.

Located at Lugnets Allé 7, a street in southeast Stockholm that one local dining upstairs stated "might as well be a suburb," guests entering Magnus Johansson Bageri & Konditori will immediately have eyes widened by some three-dozen options, Johansson himself first seen downstairs with a full tray of Viennoiseries and later stopping by to check-in on guests before entering the on-site Bakeshop where he was soon seen slicing Fruit and later whipping what appeared to be Pastry Cream. Fairly priced for such a large storefront, several diners enjoying the early morning sun outside while a few took advantage of quiet confines to read or do work, it was immediately after snapping photos with the taste of a Bread sample still on the lips that warm 'Bostock' was indulged in, the half-Croissant light with house-made Almond Paste as good as one might find in France. Enjoying halves of most items with the rest not lasting long thereafter, the 'Tosca' here labeled Notknappare faring better than any prior thanks to a blend of Nuts and thick Caramel, it was as a minor disappointment that Magnus Johansson's Katalan offered too little Raspberry Jam to be as soft as others while the Kardemumma Bulle was more a "Bun" than the versions as Åsö or Petrus but still a lovely blend of sweet, fragrant and buttery. Saving heavier items for the end, a third Wienerbrod in as many days easily outpacing others in terms of lightness of Pastry and creaminess of Custard, it was further setting a new standard that both the Solbulle and Vanilla Danish with Rhubarb Jam came across fluffy without any semblance of sogginess despite plenty of moist filling while Johansson's Chokladbol was toothsome like soft Granola despite being rich with tender Coconut shavings and plenty of good quality Cocoa.

Luckily i live pretty close so i returned an hour later and got them this time. And their newly baked Semla was truly good. Straight from the oven, not too big or too small, and just the right amount of almond, cream and taste of cardamom in the bread. Havent tried anything else there, but i bet everything is as good as the Semla and therefore, this place should be classified a very dangerous zone!
