Omino
The owners of the upscale Italian restaurant La Perla, Åsa and Emilian Ingrosso, have launched Omino, a sibling establishment. Omino, which translates to “little man” in Italian, is a little bit hipper, more vibrant and young at heart. The menu, which otherwise features Italian food, also has some Swedish influences.

Bar Nîmes
Kim Öhman, the restaurateur behind Farang, has been looking for a location for a number of years in order to realise a long-held dream: to establish a traditional neighbourhood restaurant. That search led to the creation of Bar Nîmes, which was created by architect and designer Mattias Rubin de Lima. Here, Öhman serves the type of food that he and his wife, whose family is from Nîmes, enjoy cooking together, primarily southern French and Italian cuisine.

Brutalisten
If you’re an art buff, you’re probably familiar with the work of Stockholm-based German artist Carsten Höller. Höller has teamed up with Swedish chef Stefan Eriksson to write the ten-tenet “The Brutalist Kitchen Manifesto” which serves as a base for the foods served at their Stockholm dining establishment Brutalisten. With a “mono-ingredient” menu, this place is not only a restaurant but also a work of art and a social experiment.
