We had just arrived that afternoon and were walking around our hotel to look for an early dinner. The dining room is lovely but not too stuffy or formal. We ordered the brown bread for starters, along with some wine and beer. I ordered the Arctic char (parsnip, chili, hazelnuts, browned butter and a soy glaze) and Paul G. went with the meatballs (hand-rolled and with cream sauce, mashed potatoes, lingonberries and pickled cucumber). We had the traditional Swedish meatball dish a few more times during the trip and they all came with the same components, but Bistro Bestick's was my fave. The sauce was heavier, velvety and creamy, and the potatoes were oh so fluffy. The berries were tart and fresh. I loved my fish, too... the hazelnuts, brown butter and soy were such a bright, unexpected combination. I enjoyed every bite. Don't sleep on dessert here! I couldn't even finish my dinner but still wanted to try the chocolate rum cake (salty caramel sauce, roasted peanuts, vanilla ice cream and crispy sesame) and what a delightful flavor explosion! It was beautifully presented and the sesame "cracker" on top was the perfect contrast to all the sweetness. I'd highly recommend BB!

We were in Stockholm for a few days last week and spent one day on the island of Djurgården. After…read morevisiting a couple of museums on the island, we visited Wärdshuset Ulla Winbladh for lunch. The building is stunning - sweet and beautiful - originally built for the Stockholm Art and Industrial Exhibition in 1897. Later, it was a bakery and then a restaurant, until 1992, when restaurateur, cookbook author and food columnist Nils Emil Ahlin took over the inn and created the Ulla Winbladh we know today. The food is classically Swedish and completely delicious. We started our meal by sharing Toast Skagen (pieces of toasted bread and a prawn salad called skagenröra, typically made with mayonnaise, sour cream and dill, sometimes dijon mustard, and garnished with roe), which is incredibly popular in the warmer months in Nordic countries. (They split the portion onto two plates for us!) My husband ordered another classic - poached cod served with shrimp, chopped hard boiled eggs, freshly grated horseradish, browned butter, and potatoes. I had my first (but not last) herring of the trip - fried herring with mashed potatoes, lingonberries, and lightly pickled cucumber. We had a wine and beer and really enjoyed our leisurely lunch at this beautiful restaurant on the island of Djurgården. A very beautiful and delicious meal.
