I really adore this place. I liked it so much that I didn't just go once on my recent trip to…read moreStockholm -- I went twice! On my first visit, this place was such a godsend. I only had 12% battery on my phone and I had no idea where to eat, so I just searched restaurants in the area on Google maps and Smak came up. I immediately walked to the spot and hoped they had room for me.
And they did! I was so pleasantly surprised. The server explained how everything worked: all the plates are small/tapas style and represent certain, so you pick how many courses you want (3, 5,7) . Around 3 of the plates represented 1 main course dish. On my first visit, I went with 3 dishes, but was still hungry; the next visit, I did 5 and I was very satisfied, so I suggest doing 5.
My favorite dishes/flavors include WASABI ("Kosho" sea bream, cantalope, tomato); CHILI ("Steak Tartare" sirloin, leek, kohlrabi); ASH ("Sous Vide" cod, leek, cream); GREEN CURRY ("Glaze" porkbelly, broccoli, sesame); ALMNÄS TEGEL ("Crisp" chanterelle, venison, rye bread); THYME ("Carpaccio" sirloin, foie gras, brioche).
As for the desserts, I loved LICORICE ("Sorbet" raspberry, caramel, white chocolate); SEA BUCKTHORN ("Foam" milk chocolate, star anise); BLUEBERRY ("Tartelett" browned butter, cream, vanilla).
Everything was excellent and I wish this place had a location closer to me so I could go all the time. Oh well, I'll just have to return to Stockholm again so I can come back. :)
