Good eats, bad eats

So another week goes by and some more food eaten. First up is Östgöta Källaren on Östgötagatan, and basically we didn’t eat here because of the extremely rude service we received upon trying to find a table. I would avoid this place in the near future as there are so many other places worthy of your business in the area. Vampire Lounge underneath though can be recommended for the great cocktails available.

Back A Yard on Folkungagatan 128 is the exact opposite, the service was great, the hostess extremely friendly and as long as you are not in a rush for the bill (perhaps to give an authentic Jamaican feel) its very good. They serve a nice range of Jamaican style food like Jerk Chicken and Ital Stew, though Curried Goat was off the menu they did manage to serve up a very tasty Curried Lamb stew which went great with Red Stripe. This is definitely one I would go back to and try the Red Snapper.

Koh Phangan was a slightly different affair, but again very pleasant experience, this time Thai food which went down well with sitting outside on a sunny day. Can’t exactly remember what noodle dish I had but it was good, and if I feel like Thai I might be inclined to visit again if I was at Skånegatan 57 Stockholm.

Stiernan at Renstiernas gata 22 – as they say in other reviews about this, don’t look for the name – just a star above the door and you will find this restaurant bar. Again a pleasant well priced experience, I like the beer menu with Newcastle Brown Ale on tap, and the food menu for the restaurant looked great, both of us choose Pork Medallions mine with port sauce and the other with Chilli Bernaise. I say I would prefer the port sauce if I could choose again but that largely down to personal choice. Service was good enough to leave a good tip. If you are tight for money the bar menu is very cheap.
