Ristoria Gøteborg

Ristoria: Food spot in Gothenburg

Ristoria has a very good brunch spot, and from what I can tell a good regular restaurant as well. The brunch is buffet style, all you can eat, with food ranging from egg and bacon to various pasta salads and of course dessert.

As a Norwegian, everything is very cheap in Sweden, so I thought their buffet was very affordable. And the food quality was good as well, so it’s definitely worth a try.

Ristoria is an italian inspired restaurant, with items on the menu like burrata and gnocchi.  My top choices were the pizza and the pasta (no surprises there) and although I didn’t have any dessert myself, the dessert looked delicious! You can check out the rest of their menu here.

London Baby!

London Baby!

I think London is becoming one of my favorite places. Piemonte is still at the top of course, but London is an extraordinary city. Apart from the sights, there are many top of the line restaurants and wine shops, so for a wine interested foodie, it’s like heaven.

Apart from doing some shopping and sightseeing, the main topic of this trip was food! Brunch, lunch, dinner – you name it! Ever heard of the Granger & Co? It’s a small chain of restaurants in the London area, with a total of four locations. You can also find some locations abroad. Anyway, fantastic brunch spot! I had the ricotta pancakes and I almost ordered another serving. So good! So if you’re ever in the area, check them out!

I didn’t have time to check out any wine stores this time around, but thankfully my wine fridge is fully stocked. If you have any tips for my next trip to London, let me know!

Granger & Co – Brunching in London

Granger & Co

During my last trip to London, Granger & Co was my favorite stop. It seems it’s a popular spot, because we had to wait in line for quite a bit. But it was worth it once we got inside. Beautiful decor, nice staff and incredible food! I rarely brunch, but since I was on vacation, brunch was on the schedule. It’s usually when I am travelling I do brunch. Last time I think was in NYC with Silvia Altare, at Little Park.

Granger & Co was started by Bill Granger, an australian restaurateur and he has restaurants in four locations in the London area. His restaurants can also be found abroad in Sydney, Honolulu, Tokyo and Seoul.

Even though I had the Ricotta Hotcakes, there are other more healthy alternatives, so that your brunch experience doesn’t have to be all butter and sugar. To accompany my hotcakes I had a delicious glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, which was one of their many options on the drink menu. Yum!

Anyways, if you go to one of Bill Granger’s restaurants or if you have already been, let me know what you think! Always nice to share stories and experiences.

With Siliva in New York, I had to arrange to meet up. We ended up brunching at Little Park at the Smyth Hotel. The food was excellent. I had spelt pancakes with apple syrup and some kind of delicious butter. Amazing! But as always, the company is what’s important. It was lovely seeing her again!!
