Eating out

Restaurants

Swedish restaurants have a double life. At lunchtime, they serve cheap lunch menus with a salad, bread, main course, drink and coffee. In the evening, meals are à la carte and more expensive.

Kiosks (korvkiosk)

The great Swedish classic: sausages (korv) boiled (kokt) or grilled (grillad), served in a soft bread roll with ketchup and sweet mustard.
