Nice lunch with friends

As an ex-pat, you feel very liked and popular when you go home to visit; everyone wants to invite you over for dinner. The tricky part is to have time to meet everyone in just a week.

A couple who has invited us over for several times are Therèse and Tobbe, and this time we could gladly accept.

It was a perfect summer’s day when we got to their house for lunch the other day. They had set the table outside and Tobbe was barbequing when we arrived. We had a great time together, and enjoyed salmon barbecued in tin foil with tomatoes, leek and feta, bulgur wheat, salad and a cold caviar sauce. Very nice and fresh! For dessert we had a chocolate mousse with whipped cream and melon.

So lovely to sit outside in the sunshine, sipping on crisp white wine and just chatting away. Thank you guys, for a wonderful afternoon!

Atmosfär, Malmö, Sweden

When Christopher and I went to Sweden the last weekend in May, we were lucky to get an extra day there because of the UK bank holiday Monday. It was a regular working day in Sweden, so we went with dad to Malmö and had a lovely day there before heading to the airport in Copenhagen. (Yes, I fly to a different country than my own when I go home, the bridge and tunnel makes the journey over to Sweden really quick – 12 mins by train). In Malmö we went shopping, had a nice lunch and icecream. That’s my idea of a nice day off!

The two males went for the beef with mustardy potato salad and loved it. After a weekend full of eating I chose the Caesar salad, which was massive and lovely. It had some bulgur wheat in the bottom to make it more filling, but that was a bit OTT, I could only finish half of it anyway. Apart from the main courses they serve you a bowl of soup and lovely homemade bread at the start of the meal, so you won’t risk leaving here unsatisfied.

Atmosfär is good value for money, great service and although the restaurant usually is full up I have always gotten a table here.
