Thanks to the presence of the Swedish School, many of the latter live in the Barnes/East Sheen nexus, which is where you’ll find this long-established deli, now also a restaurant.
Run by welcoming husband-and-wife team Göran and Majvor, it’s a small, homely place – domestic rather than designer in feel – with white and pale grey walls adorned with the occasional reindeer skin and birch branch, and a deli counter-cum-kitchen at the far end.
The menu varies, but in general it’s a traditional affair that makes use of classic ingredients (reindeer, prawns, herring, lingonberries all appear) in hearty, home-style renditions – this is not the place for New Nordic shenanigans or fancypants twists.
Dense and meaty globes (Göran’s own recipe), these are served with a creamy sauce and silky-smooth mashed potato, with a little bowl of sour-sweet lingonberries to cut through the richness.
Desserts focus on ice-creams and sorbets (some served with cloudberry jam) and cakey creations, but they’re not as tasty as the savoury dishes.
