Feel bad about the 2 stars, but based on our lunch food experience, it definitely falls in the…read more"Meh. I've experienced better; and I paid way too much" category for me. The place was busy at 2pm, and it seemed like most folks were happily enjoying fancy and tasty-looking cakes and dessert, so it's very likely we made a mistake in ordering lunch instead of cake.
The lunch menu is small and simple: paninis, pies, and salads. There are maybe 4 things without chicken/ham/shrimp. I had the 119kr Greek Salad.. It was 20kr more than my SO's panini, which also came with a side salad.
I know salads tend to have a high profit margin, and I'm fine with that. I've had lots of great, pricy salads, and I don't mind paying more than I would have to for the ingredients. But they're usually really tasty too.
But, in this case, my more expensive meal was composed the same way as my SO's simple side salad, with the addition of a few sticks of feta, some black olives, four cucumber slices, and a few concentrated piles of pepper shaker pepper. There was no dressing. At that price, especially compared it to the 99kr panini + side salad, I was expected something a little nicer.
Okay, food was very, very disappointing. The layout is pretty cozy. It's the "piles of very fancy couches crammed into a small space", so everyone gets a fancy couch to sit on. There's a lot of space spread across two rooms, and it's popular enough that most of the tables were taken when we were there.
Our original plan was to also try the cake, but we were both not very impressed with our lunches, and left instead. We're considering coming back in a while to try the cake, and maybe be able to give back a star or two.
