- The food scene in Gothenburg, Sweden is UNREAL! It is definitely a foodie destination and aside from visiting their Lisberg Christmas market ( • GOTHENBURG CHRISTMAS M... ), our trip was basically all about the food.

I moved to Japan a couple of months ago, and i never realised how much i love Swedish food. I sooo took it for granted!! been binge watching food videos from Sweden to make me miss it even more, this is torture!! Haha!
Oh no! hahaha :) Glad we could help/torture ;)
@@aWanderlustForLife ciao carissima come stai tuoi vedeo belli
It is good to be away from it too, now you have a new found love for something you took for granted. Just get the most of it when visiting Sweden next time. I always ask for the basics when i go visit my parents (we live in different cities, i still live i Sweden). Just those everyday regular meatballs and mashed potatoes dishes that wasnt weekend fancy foods. Those i miss the most when not eating my parents food or my grandmas meatballs... I miss em so much.
in sweden we call it pearl-sugar. Other people might say sugar crystals
Thanks! That sounds right to me now 😊
Loved it! So glad you got to try the cinnamon roll 😊 we definitely missed out 😭 looked like a super delicious day!!
Thanks! We are definitely glad we tried it. And they had something else on the table that tasted like a Snickerdoodle! Luckily, this was over a couple of delicious days. We spread out the goodness 😋 Happy New Year, you two!
Despite being a "tourist trap", they are actually quite good. 😀
Awsome video, very helpful indeed.
HALV SPECIAL , FLOORGANG AOUH
That is a lot of delicious-looking seafood! I feel like I would fit in well in Sweden! That giant cinnamon roll looked good! Great video!
Thanks so much! There's still a bunch of seafood we missed...too much good food 😂
Enjoyed!
what a lovely video I can't wait to try this one day
Sounds great!!
Great Video today. That Shrimp Sallad looks A mazing.. Thats on,my,list now
I didnt see any shrimp salad in the video and its alarming to me cause we have something called shrimp salad and that's not a typical salad. Just beware so you dont get the wrong thing.

Where would be your dream location to eat your way around the city?
Interesting to watch your guide. Living close to Gothenburg and gonna try one or 2 places where you have been 😊 I love Husaren's huge cinnamon rolls as well❤️
Awesome! I'd love your feedback after you go!
OhMyGod, can't wait to visit in the summer! All about the belly, so thank you!
You'll love it!
quite a wonderful video :3 i hope you'll get more subscribers soon!
Thank you so much!
Your videos are very nice,congratulations. 🤗
Thank you!
The seafood looks delicious! Reminds me of coastal Maine. Can’t wait to move to Göteborg this fall.
How wonderful! Seems like such a nice place to live. Enjoy🙂
Hi, did you make the move? How do you like it here? :)
@@tpeterson9140 nope, still haven't seen the city :(
Sorry to hear that you move didn't pan out!
"Cinnamon roll". Here in Finland we have those too, and finnish we called it, or them, korvapuusti name.
I hope to get back to Finland, soon! So I'll watch out for them 😊
As a seafood lover this makes me so hungry 😋
Hehe. Hope you get some, soon!
The lobster isnt an all year around type of seafood. You're only allowed to fish the West Coast ones from the first monday after 20 september until 1 december. Maybe they get frozen do you can eat during other time of the year but if you want fresh ones that's when to visit.
it looks so delicious OMG!! now i know how pavlows dog felt
Lol! Glad you enjoyed.
I try to see on maps this Restaurang Gabriel,and is not found ..any suggestions?
Looks like it's permanently closed 😞 It's where we got it, but I'm sure if you Google best in Gothenburg, maybe another will come up.
Mussels, parsley, garlic and white wine sounds like my childhood. We used to just grab them out of the water but it's mostly oysters these days. The mussels are still there but they're very much the minority now. These days we use oysters for crab-fishing (even though they're more of a pain to crack) because they're so much more common. Not that the crabs are likely to care, they go up and down and are fed in the process of being caught. So they're probably good unless some dumb kid forgets the bucket in the sun before pouring them back.
White wine as a child?
@@YamiAi when cooking wine the alcohol disappears. He was listning the ingredients of how to cook mussels not that he was drinking wine as a kid.
Hey you missed one of the most classic dishes here in Sweden
You missed the Toast skagen
Oh thanks! I'll have to try it next time!
What about swedish meatballs?
Everything from the ocean is a must when you are at the west coast of Sweden… beats everything else if you are in to seafood!
Absolutely!
That shrimp sandwich must have cost 200 kronor or so. It's delicious but very expensive in a restaurant.
*gasp* Thats not a halv-special! Though I've had that specific serving myself and its omgdelicious. They've essentially taken all the accessories to proper swedish meatballs and exchanged the meatballs with a banger.
What a "Halv special" is varies depending on where you are in Sweden. Also, they are dining at a hipster place, so it's their take on a "halv special". 👍
@@MrJockelito not really, unless someone outside of Gothenburg changed it from the original maybe. This one though, still stuck to the essentials for what makes a 'halv special', 1 sausage in a bun with mash. Lets all remember Conny and Päsa from Hisingen the inventors of the halv special XD
Try 5:an, full afghans but see the pizza hut
So you rejected the shrimpsandwich at Gabriel for the one at heaven 23!?!?!?!? Big no, no.
I wouldn't say "rejected" but we didn't want to eat the entire menu at Gabriel's 😂. Had to try other favorites. BUT, when we go back, we will try a bunch more dishes at Gabriel's.
2:30 that's not a crayfish it's a langoustine
I ordered crayfish 🤷♀️
@@aWanderlustForLife In Swedish it's called "havskräfta" which translates to something like "sea crayfish". So often it's confusing.
You missed IKEA MeatBalls or Kottbullar
No she didnt. They are not something you make a foodie video of. Its like making a foodie burger video and go to McDonalds. They're fine if you want cheap meatballs for lunch but they're not even close to good ones. Ofc, my grandmas ones were the best and I think everyone agree about their grandmas ones. But there are actually restaurants who has good ones too.
I really thought gothenburg was pronounced goo-tin-burg like gluten but hearing her say gothenburg like -goth or -moth I'm no longer so sure. Anyone know which it is?
There will always be a local pronunciation and a foreign one, like saying Paris in French and in American English. Gothenburg is also spelled differently in Swedish, Göteborg. I think local, in this case, is more like "Goat", but I could be wrong.
@@aWanderlustForLife In English the pronunciation is indeed Goth-en-burg (Goth as in moth), but in Swedish it's Gö-te-borg (the 'G' is a j-sound, 'ö' is pronounced like 'i' in bird, 'te' is like the 'tte' in latte, 'bo' is like the 'bo' in bottom (British pronunciation), 'r' is a rolling r, and 'g' is j-sound!) this sounds super complicated though, so I'd suggest just typing it into google translate and have it sound it out for a proper example!
That is SUPER helpful! Thank you!
@@aWanderlustForLife No problem, happy to help!
It's prenoannced "jootebuurgh". Regards your friendly local(-ish) ...
munching on fast food..where is Gothenburg's " traditional food of West Sweden" in this video?..these are mostly popular munchies/ fast food options available in similar form almost in any city in Western world..and no, this doesn't make me jealous..lol..(in my city in normal times there is food like this on every corner)
Thanks for your comment! These are what came up in my research, including speaking with some locals. But I'd love for you to share some of what else should be on this list! We hope to go back and discover more :)
A Wanderlust For Life If you do give me a shout I live here would gladly show you around. 😉
What are you on about? These are not fast food options. Its the popular places true, but you clumping together Gabriels and heaven 23 to f-in Mickey Ds and BK is blasphemious. Get your head out of your ass.
I moved to New York but I was born in Gothenburg and live there for 12 years and fun fact I HATE seafood
next time tell us the price please
Prices frequently change and since this video is years old, it wouldn't be the same. I would check the website for all updated information and have a great trip!
That is not the biggest in the world! Are you kidding me? I've eaten at least two times the size! xD
WHAT?! Where?? I must go to this place...when I can go anywhere 😂
@@aWanderlustForLife Sweden
Lol! I mean, which shop?
@@aWanderlustForLife his name is Marklund so its a fair chance he's from Skellefteå. I think he's just trolling you because people from Skellefteå never leaves Skellefteå.
