My birthday this year was a Wednesday. Rather boring, but a good excuse to have bubbly mid-week. I was in Sweden on holiday and wanted to have supper with my closest family and best friend. In general I am not very impressed with the restaurants in Malmo, but there are a few good ones, Atmosfar included. You can tell that they have a passion for food there, and on the walls hang lots of certifications. They have smaller and bigger plates, but no proper maincourses, so you can mix and match the dishes how you like.
This makes the atmosphere less stuffy and it is all about enjoying food. We started with the fabulous ham top photo , Jamon from Spain. It was melt-in-the-mouth fantastic and we all loved it. There were also several baskets of bread and we ate and ate.
The bread was airy and light in the middle and had a lovely buttery crust all around it. When we started with the smaller plates not starters, mind you both mother and I were very indecisive and ended up sharing two. The first one was the lovely scallops with crisp vegetable and a lovely jus.
When it was time for the larger plates, the whole table settled for two varieties. I had this lovely lamb fillet with jus, fried button mushrooms and girolles and a thin thin crisp slice of bread. It was wonderful; meaty and light at the same time. Dad among others had the beef with jus, chickpea creme and roasted tomatoes. Lovely as well and the meat was great produce. After a slow walk and a good rest of course.
This restaurant never disappoints me as Malmo restaurants often do. For being in Sweden the prices are very good, the produce and cooking amazing and the service and atmosphere good. It reminds me of smart casual restaurants in London, which definitely is a good thing. Skip to content My birthday this year was a Wednesday.
