Smallest house in Stockholm Stockholm
A chopped house
The island of Södermalm (where I live) has a lot of history. A walk here will take you back all the way to the mid 1650's. On Nytorgsgatan 5, you will find the smallest house in Stockholm. It dates back to the 1720s. The house used to be much bigger, but in the early 1900s, it was demolished to what it is today.
It used to have five windows out to the street and not the single one you find today. The walk to come here is especially nice if you start your walking from Slussen and walk up on Götgatan and then take the stairs on your left to Urvädersgränd. This cobbled street is also very old and will take you to Mosebacke Torg. Here you'll find nice old houses and a relaxing atmosphere. I often come here and walk up to the terrace of Mosebacke for a beer. In this area, you'll see both old houses, the church of Katarina and the smallest house in Stockholm. Most visitors don't know about it as it is the last house on a dead-end street. It is so small you can almost give it a hug!

Pat's Place
Thai Tapas
I can guarantee the authenticity of flavours and genuine spiced food. It is really nice being at Pat's, sharing food, having a few beers and chilling.

Pita i Parken
Kebabs for all tastes!
"Pita i Parken" in Stockholm has changed my whole opinion about pita-bread-based meals. My go-to order is the Åsen pita w/ chicken. Love the terrace, too.

Soldaten Svejk
Schnitzel and Beer
Here I always struggle to choose between the Praguer and Schnitzel Feldkurat Katz. When it comes to beer, I go for Prímator or the Pilsner Urquell.

Demi Mat & Bar
Cozy local restaurant
Demi serves a variety of food items and the menu changes regularly. Sobrasada, a hot and spicy Spanish sausage is what I eat almost every time I visit.

Midsummer
The most important summer celebration
Midsummer is HUGE in Sweden, and people from Stockholm usually spend June 21st in their country houses. If you're around, go to open-air museum Skansen.

Två Små Svin
Smørrebrød and schnapps
"Två Små Svin" ("Two Little Pigs") in Stockholm is a restaurant that will be worth that little effort of going a bit outside the city center.
