Röda Sten Café Och Restaurang

Housed in a rugged former heating plant, this Gothenburg kitchen delivers a vibrant Middle Eastern fusion that challenges the traditional palate through technical study. The signature meze bowl arrives with golden, herb-flecked falafel and creamy hummus, balanced by the sharp acidity of a pomegranate and parsley salad. Technique shines in the slow-braised chili, where tender beef brisket meets the smoky depth of charred salsa and cooling avocado crema. Aromas of toasted cumin and fresh coriander drift through the industrial space, while textures range from the crisp, laminated layers of house-made pastries to the velvety richness of a classic potato purée.
