Live from Stockholm…the one in Sweden

So here we are in Stockholm and the first night here we needed food so since we got in late in the day and both were out of time sync by 6 hours we decided to take sup in the hotel restaurant which was an Italian place and as a special event they were doing a special truffle menu. Now my only experience with truffles has been as a luxury in the Civilization games, and then Cesar usually gets them if he is in the game.  So here is the menu.

I read somewhere that like 90% of internet traffic is food pictures and since I have never taken a picture of food here is a picture of the tartar of veal thing.

It should be noted that each course had a different wine with it designed by the wine guy to bring out the earthy essence of the truffles, or something like that. This is the risotto stuff with the truffle things laying right on top.

The main course was next and after the beginning glass of champagne, and 2 courses each with it’s own glass of wine and then the glass with the main course I forgot to take a picture until I had eaten most of it. Anyway here’s a picture.

Note the truffle jus. We finished up with another wine and desert. The whole truffle thing was not bad but it don’t belong in desert.

So we finished up everything and waited for our coffee and then went up to bed. I should note that there were not any meatballs on the menu but we did see a Volvo.
