Guns don't argue

A trip to Gothenburg without a visit to Baretta is not worth remembering. I'd rate their "standard kebab" as the best in Sweden. Uddevalla, an hours drive north of Gothenburg, probably has the best "kebabtallrik" (kebab served with fries) but if we're talking kebab meat in a bread... This is it!!! Staff is nice and have been so for the last 12 years. I just wish this place had a joint in Stockholm.

Fried day

NFC (Nordstan Fried Chicken) opened in Nordstan, Gothenburg a year or two ago. Then a month or so ago they closed down. I never went there even though I felt I had to, just cause I loved the fact that they had stolen the logo straight off of KFC's logo. However, last week on my way to catch the train back to Stockholm, after a 30 hour visit in Gothenburg, I saw that sign again. NFC has moved to Nils Ericsonterminalen so I guess the "N" does not stand for Nordstan anymore. My expectations were pretty low and the fries, chicken and sauce wasn't very good either. So if you're thinking of going to NFC... DON'T!


I know I said I was set for the summer with my new cut off shorts, but today I bought a pair of vintage chinos at Weekday and cut them off too.

Gothenburg has the best kebab pizza in Sweden if you ask me. One of my favorites is Slottsskogens Pizzeria. What's typical for a Gothenburg style kebab pizza is that you get it with fresh salad, tomatoes, cucumber and everything else you would get in a regular kebab. Slottskogens Pizzeria even got feta cheese and olives on it. Marcella described it like this: "it's like a pizza with kebab meat and a full Greek salad on it".

Husman baby!

A little teaser on the house: salmon on hard bread.


Starter: SOS (Sill Ost Smör - Herring Cheese Butter).


Main: Smoked sausage, stewed potatoes and beetroot (the daily special).

Never thought I would recommend Linnéterrassen Kök & Bar on this blog. But that was before I actually ate there. I've been there loads of times drinking beer on their grand terrace but I've never ordered anything to eat. I was quite surprised though, our lunch was really nice. Not extraordinary but definitely worth the money.

After a night and half a day in Gothenburg we went to Marstrand. If I ever move back to the west coast I think I rather live there than in Gothenburg.

Home is where you belong

Gothenburg's the city that I come from. It's a great fuckin city in my opinion. I'm happy I don't live there anymore, but I love going there in spring and summer to see my parents and friends, drink cheap beer and eat great food. Gothenburg is a harbor city which means seafood is one of the things that we Gothenburgers love to indulge in.

Räkmackan, the shrimp sandwich, is a big classic you should not miss when in Gothenburg. One of the best places to go to if you're out to get one is Heaven 23. Loads of shrimps and a great view over the city. It is said that the shrimps are sent from Sweden to Poland to be handpicked and then sent back again to be served at Heaven 23. Sounds crazy... but it usually does when people go all out to save some cash money.
