Dining in Stockholm

A lovely dining experience at Mathias Dahlgren food bar at the Grand Hôtel on Friday as a sequel to our wine tasting evening.


Here with Sonu Shivdasani of Soneva Resorts and
Fredrik Gyllenhammar at Mathias Dahlgren

Very nice and well educated Sommelier,
Johan Andersson at Mathias Dahlgren
 

 We tried some beautiful wines from Anne Gros:

 
Nuits-Saint Georges 2010

Mathias Dahlgren is a Swedish celebrity chef. He presents traditional Swedish fare in inspired fusion with world cooking. Not categorized as starters, main courses etc, dishes are moderately sized so that you are tempted to taste quite a few of them, and they can be enjoyed in any order, paired with great wines…

Saturday, more enjoyable dining in Stockholm’s Östermalm:


Here together with Fredrik and his daughter Sophia at Sturehof


Another lovely biodynamic wine is a Pinot Noir from New Zealand, Felton Road 2010 from Central Otago.

Meanwhile winter has touched Stockholm with a magic wand.
 
View yesterday from my flat.
In beautiful sunshine, it was  a sparkling 30 min walk to our Select Collection Spa for a massage.

I am blessed to have such wonderful therapists from around that world, who give such relaxing and rejuvenating massages. I need to be ready for the all-important ILTM: More about that later….
