Currently ranked the second best restaurant of Malmö at TripAdvisor, it’s easy to overlook what a great cocktail venue Bastard also is. Their cocktail menu is enjoyable reading, and it changes frequently. A favorite from a prior visit, “Le Saboteur” was still on the menu at our recsent revisit though. This is a cocktail containing several of… Continue reading Bastard – Malmö

The Jones Family Project – London
Yes, this is primarily a restaurant. But The Jones Family Project in London’s Shoreditch area has a very intriguing cocktail list as well.

Amaretto Sour – Music to our ears
How do you decide on one common cocktail when there are four persons in your group? After at concert with the Malmö Symphonic Orchestra (MSO) at their brand new venue Malmö Live we were faced with this challenge.

Niklas Ekstedt is a famous Swedish chef with a handful of self-owned restaurants throughout Sweden. All of them are focused at food, but the bar at restaurant Niklas is interesting on its own. Their cocktail “Smoke That Flower” is a fascinating mix of pisco and mezcal, with a touch of elderflower and lemon (and obviously some egg-white for… Continue reading Niklas – Stockholm
