Barrels is relatively new on the high-quality burger scene in Stockholm, and they put a lot of effort and thought into their burgers. The eatery gained huge popularity after receiving an award for best newcomer restaurant in Stockholm last year.
Their menu is varied with interesting burgers, and if you have room for sides, we recommend you try their tasty haricots verts instead of fries. We’re really fond of their homage to early style burgers called “The Original,” which is a plain cheeseburger sandwiched between two slices of toast. It sounds almost deceptively simple, but trust us, it’s truly delicious.
Their location is shared with the microbrewery bar Tritonia, so a great beer selection is always at hand. The burgers are in a mid-price range with prices between 115 to 135 SEK.

In 2013, Zookz-Sandwiches was awarded the Reader’s Choice award for Best Sandwiches in the Phoenix area by “Phoenix Magazine.” Zookz sandwiches blend crunchy textures and savory fillings with artisanal sauces to create a delicious taste experience. Try the No. 20: thinly sliced turkey, bacon, avocado, tomato and shredded cheddar.
In a city full of innovative dishes, Bar Mut is considered one of the city’s best tapas bars. Tucked behind Avenida Diagonal in the heart of the Eixample neighborhood, its gastronomic experience attracts celebrities, well-heeled and deep-pocketed locals. Opened by Quim Diaz in 2005, the bar’s name is a play on the word vermut (vermouth). The intimate retro space is packed with antiques, bottles lining the walls, etched glass, bronze fittings and marble-topped barrels. Tapas range from wild sea bass to the finest Iberico hams, cheese, meats and salads, all accompanied by an excellent wine list and a comprehensive range of spirits. Catalan dishes listed on chalkboards around the bar range from carpaccio of sea urchin to fried eggs with foie gras on montaditos (tapas-size baguettes), wood oven-roasted scallops, braised oxtail and steak tartare. Try the bar’s signature dish: huevos fritos with poached egg, prawn, thin fried potatoes and chorizo sauce. Book well in advance. The website only shows an art film of trendy people drinking and socializing. Call instead. Pro tip: Ask to be put on the list for drinks at Mutis, the semi-secret cocktail bar upstairs that resembles a 1920s Parisian burlesque.

Invented as a midnight snack for revelers at the Brown Hotel, no visit to Louisville is complete without eating a Hot Brown, an open-faced sandwich of sliced turkey, covered in Mornay sauce, accompanied with tomato slices, sprinkled with Parmesan and baked or broiled on Texas toast until the bread is crisp and the sauce begins to brown and bubble. The sandwich is then topped with paprika, parsley and bacon strips. Sometimes known as a Kentucky Hot Brown, the sandwich was created at the Brown Hotel by Fred K. Schmidt in 1926 as an alternative to ham and egg late-night suppers. A variation of traditional Welsh rarebit, it was one of two signature sandwiches created by chefs at the hotel shortly after it opened in 1923. When Schmidt created the Hot Brown, sliced roast turkey was a rarity, as turkey was usually reserved for holiday feasts. After its debut, it quickly became the choice of 95 percent of customers to the hotel's restaurant. The Hot Brown has been featured in episodes of “Throwdown! With Bobby Flay,” “Chopped,” “Southern Fried Road Trip,” “Taste of America with Mark DeCarlo” and a Louisville-themed episode of “Man v. Food Nation” and more.
