Four times selected the Swedish Chef of the Year and the winner of Bocuse d'Or in 1997, Mathias Dahlgren ran the Stockholm restaurant Bon Lloc, which had one Michelin Star, from 1996 to 2005. In 2007 he opened the restaurant Mathias Dahlgren in the Stockholm Grand Hotel, which received a Michelin star in 2008. In 2009, it was upgraded to two Michelin stars, only the second Swedish restaurant ever to receive this recognition. In 2013 Matsalen was ranked as the 55th best restaurant in the world . The cuisine is based on using the best fresh produce available in Sweden and other parts of the world. The restaurant is located in the Beautiful Grand Hotel of Stockholm, which is a beautiful building overlooking the water. You are greeted by a very friendly hostess just outside the restaurant who accommodates you and takes care of your coats. The menu is presented on an iPad, giving a short description of each course. We went with the Natural Cuisine Menu. Great flavors and colors. You can tell that Mathias Dahlgren really chooses his produce with care. Fresh aromas, and beautiful plates made up a wonderful menu with several highlights. The menu starts off with a couple of small Amuse Bouches. Great for getting the taste buds warmed up. After these three courses we had some wonderful bread, immensely tasty and rich. Knowing that we had many courses ahead of us I had to limit myself to two slices but that required a lot of self-discipline. One of the highlights of the menu was called Swedish Coolness, and was a delicious blend of raw Nordic seafood, soy, ginger and horseradish. Then in succession, course after course was served with a short introduction from the professional staff. In terms of drinks, there are a number of local beers available or you can try Mathias' own brew. We also had a bottle of German Riesling which was well priced.
Not a cheap evening but well worth the money and highly recommended!
