A Memorable Evening at Kagges in Stockholm
Kagges, located in the heart of Stockholm, is a true hidden gem for food enthusiasts. Recommended by the Michelin Guide, this cozy restaurant delivers a unique dining experience that combines culinary creativity, intimate service, and the thrill of watching chefs in action.
Reservations Are a Must
Booking a table at Kagges via BokaBoard was essential, and I’m glad I secured a seat at the bar. Sitting at the bar was a highlight of the evening, offering a front-row view of the chefs meticulously crafting each dish. The open kitchen concept added an extra layer of excitement to the meal.
The Menu: Top 4 with Wine Pairing
To keep things simple, I opted for the Top 4 menu with wine pairing, and it didn’t disappoint:
- Course 1: The evening began with an orange wine, a bold and unconventional choice that brought back memories of past experiences at Canvas in Bangkok. While orange wines can be polarizing, this one was balanced and enjoyable.
- Course 2: A dish featuring various beans, cooked to retain their crunch. While this texture might not suit everyone’s preferences, I found it fresh and satisfying.
- Course 3: Perfectly cooked cod, highlighting the restaurant’s skill in preparing seafood with subtle yet striking flavors.
- Course 4: A flavorful dish of pork, tender and packed with umami, wrapping up the savory courses beautifully.
For dessert, I indulged in Blum pudding with plums and Blum sorbet, a delightful combination of rich and tangy flavors that ended the meal on a high note.
Atmosphere & Connection
Beyond the food, what made the evening special was the atmosphere. While enjoying my meal, I struck up a conversation with a fellow diner—a digital nomad from Ukraine living in Singapore. We exchanged stories, apps, and experiences, adding a personal and memorable dimension to the evening.
