I'm a little loopy. I'm trying to stay up as long as I can so I crash out tonight. I need to quickly reset my clock so I can jump in at work on Monday. Here are a couple of snapshots from my first day.
Hit the Östermalms Saluhall, a famed food hall in the east part of Stockholm. It's kind of like every awesome food hall I've been to (see Ferry Plaza, S.F., Winterfeldplatz, Berlin and Central Market, Adelaide), except this one has lots of seating for whole families who want to sit down, order a meal and drink wine.
Here are semla, Swedish buns filled with cream and almond paste. Part of me wants to go try all the semla I can, including the ones at 7Eleven, so I can report back to you on whose is best. But such a project would wreak serious havoc on my lactose intolerant innards. Sorry.
Lisa Elmqvist's seems to be the hot spot in the Saluhall. It was the only place with a serious line. I watched a woman at the Lisa Elmqvist bar eat a plateful of tiny ruby red crustaceans, washing the bodies down with a buxom glass of cold white wine. She had lined the discarded heads up in the most neat, diabolical way. I'll go back another time and report on the food.
This is my tiny little hotel room. It's actually quite cozy. Everything is tucked into the perfect place -- the coat hook, the desk, the skinny closet. I won't be here for long, so I don't mind. Doesn't the bed look super comf? I'm so bleary-eyed. I can't wait to get in it.
What is this chair? Is it a famous Swedish thing? I saw them in a couple of places. I quite like them. They look comf, too.
Check this out -- it's, like, 19 degrees Farenheit and this cafe's outdoor seating is completely full. There are heat lamps out and sheepskin rugs on the seats, but still -- you couldn't convince me. These Swedes are hardcore.
Sorry, I'm drifting. More context later.
