Trappa ner is another great bistro with exquisite and moderately priced fare, especially strong on fish and seafood.

Bloom – soon moving into new premises – and Årstiden (The Season) are two more highly regarded gourmet eateries, both focussing on fresh local ingredients and produce.

Recently opened Vendel på Sturehof is a tasteful and classy gourmet restaurant which many already rank as number one in Malmö.

In the hot new Västra hamnen district, Twisted Torso, at the foot of the Turning Torso skyscraper, has quickly gained both critical and popular acclaim, with its highly advanced concept based on a white and a black menu, as well as the opportunity to choose ”Twisted”, allowing the chefs to compose their own menu.

Salt & Brygga, known for its attractive health food, is another of many popular restaurants, bars and cafés in the Västra hamnen district. Smak (”Taste”) in the beautiful Malmö Art Hall is another modern classic, stylishly laid back and, as its name indicates, focussing on taste, offering classic Swedish and international dishes that don´t taste quite as expected. The Sunday brunch at Smak is a scene for the city´s smart set.
