I have read about the Islandic chef and restaurant owner Agnar Sverrisson who runs Texture, a Michelin starred restaurant in London, and finally I got to go. The food pictures on their web are really enjoyable and the design of the restaurant is scandinavian soft and calm. Got a table next to the half open … Continue reading →

Went to the Systembolaget (state wine store) in Färjestaden to pick out some wines. Rosé is never wrong in the summer, Riesling from Kamptal Austria as well, and a light Morgon from … Continue reading →

Checkade in på Göteborgs nya hotell Clarion Hotel Post och kände mig genast välkommen, både av den trevliga personalen och atmosfären. Renoveringen och ombyggnationen av gamla postverkets lokaler är enormt välgjord. Jag gillar det och känner att hit kan man åka utan någon direkt anledning. Att detta blir Göteborgs nya mötesplats är en självklarhet. Gott … Continue reading →

Torsdagen började som sagt med en kort joggingrunda innan en helt ok fransk frukost. Första stop för dagen – Nusbaumer. Resan mot Steige, en liten vacker by som ligger i bergskedjan Vogeserna går på slingrande väg genom vacker skog och utsikt över Alsacedalen. Jag slås av att alla små byar vi passerar har kvar sin … Continue reading →

Jag fortsätter mitt botaniserande i min “Kok-konsten som vetenskap och konst” av Hagdahl.
