London for the third time this year

So I was over to the UK for work last week, me and two colleagues stayed over in London for the weekend. The weekend consisted of shopping and eating basically.

Starters at Gilgamesh

Me and the drink I never had time to finish:)

We started the weekend of with a visit to Gilgamesh in Camden where we had a set menu. I have really started to appreciate ordering set menus cause I try food which I would regularly never have ordered in my self. Gilgamesh is what I would call London's Buddakhan, which was a awesome asian restaurant in NYC and one I really enjoyed. I would say I like the decor and overall atmosphere better at Gilgamesh though they did serve the food a bit fast would have liked to be able to have time to enjoy my drink in between courses:) After Gilgamesh we ran between pubs, the rain as pouring down.


Before heading back to the hotel we ended up at a pub called The worlds end, probably a tourist pub, you would think it's small from the outside but it really opens up and is huge, an alright selection of beers.










Saturday we spent shopping. For lunch we headed to borough market. A bit crowded but I love all the food you can find there, ate a raclette, consisting of potatoes covered in cheese.

The evening we spent in the hoxton area, had dinner at Tramshed, basically chicken and steak was lovely though. The truly amazing part of the dinner was the salted caramel fondue type of desert in which you dipped donuts and marshmallows, SO GOOD! The tramshed has an installtion of Damien Hirst, a cow in formaldehyde.

Desert at Tramshed, YUM!

After Tramshed we went to a cocktail bar, Ninetyeight Bar and Lounge. The decor was different, but in a cool way, can't really find the right words to describe it.

So will be back in London in less then 4 weeks, so until then I might do a post about my town instead:) Gothenburg that is.

Copenhagen this weekend that passed

So me and Andreas headed down to copenhagen this weekend to meet With some friends from Uk and Ireland. 

Me and Andreas had lunch at the food markets called Torvehallerne. We ate at a tapas place With Both hot and cold mor sandwich like tapas. Very good:)

I bought some Cream buns from a place at the market called summer bird. They had some different tastes then the usual chocolate one. I bought licorice taste and passion rosehip. 

Later in the evening we went to a restaurant called höst. I would call it danish food With a twist maybe.  We did a set menu With cod, pork belly and dessert:) to these dishes we also Got a cured salmon with smoked potatoes as and appetizer which was very good.

After dinner we visited two cocktail bars 1105 and ruby bar. Both the bars reminded me of the bars in NYC. A bit hidden or not so easy to find. Ruby bar was decorated as an apartment. The bests cocktails where at 1105 in My opinion atleast. 

We also went to Karriere later on which have cheap drinks until midnight. A cocktail for 65. Been there a couple of times it's in copenhagen's meatpacking district (ködbyen). Usually a could party but the people start droping in around midnight aswell. 

Next trip is next weekend to London. More updates then:)
