I den nyöppnade gallerian MOOD på Jakobsbergsgatan, ligger Bouqeria. Bouqeria betyder ungefär marknads- eller mötesplats på spanska, och det är precis det som stället är, en mötesplats att handla och äta god mat på.

På torget finns det gott om godsaker att handla med sig hem, medan du i restaurangen kan njuta av läckra tapas! Slink förbi under shoppingrundan och njut av en mustig lunch. Varje dag serveras en ny rätt, men även en förminskad tapas meny finns för den sugne. Exempel på lunch är inkokt lax, lammstek och majskyckling, alla med spännande tillbehör.

Till middag är tapas menyn rejäl, och här finns alla möjliga godsaker som får dig att tro att du befinner dig mitt i Barcelona. Tapas menyn innehåller bland annat papas fritas, serano skinka, kycklinglever, pescaditos fritas och cecina de leon. Drinkmenyn har klassiker som sangria och blinis.

MOOD Stockholm är det senaste tillskottet på Stockholms shoppingscen. Här samsas konst, butiker och restauranger med kärleken till det de gör som gemensam nämnare. Den 23 mars slogs dörrarna upp, till shoppingmeckat som tar upp hela kvarteret där Norrlandsgatan, Mäster Samuelsgatan, Regeringsgatan och Jakobsbergsgatan möts mitt inne i centrala Stockholm.

Hos MOOD hittar du inte de vanliga kedjorna, utan ett gäng noga utvalda butiker som Denim&Supply Ralph Lauren, Kling och Söner, Pairs och State of Art. Hos MOOD är restaurangerna byggda utefter gästernas behov. Här kan du mumsa på en härlig frukost, en city-lunch eller varför inte kombinera ett möte med en middag?

Målet med MOOD är att skapa en plats, unik från vad Stockholm har att erbjuda, i en vacker och utmanande miljö. Konstverken som pryder MOOD är valda med yttersta omsorg, och består av installationer, verk och skulpturer som inte bara speglar vår nutid, utan även bygger på tradition och klassiska gestaltningar.

MOOD Stockholm är öppet måndag-fredag 10-20, Lör 10-18, Sön 11-18.

As you might expect from the name, Grill is—well—a grill restaurant. Here grilled meats from five different continents, with just as many different grill methods are served. In the middle of the restaurant for example chicken, sirloin, and lamb gets seared on charcoal. If you are in the mood to be the grill master yourself, choose one of the Asian dishes and grill by your table. Grill also serves asado-grilled lamb, they have a popular grill plate as well as a grilled seafood plateau.

Grill opened their doors almost ten years ago, with a plan of creating a place where good food, meetings and a relaxed environment could all fit under one roof. You can pop in for a drink, or a multi-course dinner. The dining room at Grill is divided into eight different parts, each one with its own unique and playful interior. Grill offers live music on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, and on Sundays a big grill buffet is also set up. For 295SEK you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat extravaganza, with lamb and chicken grilled over an open fire. Sauces, potatoes, salads and veggies are also served for you to munch on. Vegetarian offers are available for those non-meat lovers. Children under ten eat for free.

At Supper, a centrally located restaurant in Stockholm, you can savour South American delicacies with influences from Mexico in the north, to Argentina in the south. The menu is divided into small dishes, bigger dishes and desserts, and the idea is that you and your company will order several dishes and then try a little bit of all of them.

The smaller dishes are classics like ceviche, gambas, mollejas and flautas, while the bigger ones are picanha, cerdo, cinco en le familia and dorado. Most of the dishes are based on meat, but some are completely vegetarian.

For those in need of something sweet after the meal, Supper offers choices like chocolate mouse, their own meringue with ice cream, apples cooked in spices with calvados and raisin ice cream. The dessert menu also offers a weekly brulée and other delicious treats.

In order to complete the tasty dishes, Supper has exotic cocktails, and from the bar you’ll hear some sweet tunes, so there’s everything to make the whole experience as authentic as possible!

After 5pm Delikatessen serves a bistro menu with a French concentration. In the cosy room, you can enjoy classics like moules frites, calf’s liver Anglais and steak tartar. For starters you can savour crème Ninon or pilgrim scallops Provencal.

Monteliusvägen is a true four-season beauty. During the summer, habitants of the Södermalm area will come for a sunset picnic in the grass, whilst the winter offers a refreshing stroll through charming villas and a remarkable non-leaf-obstructed view.
