Bockholmen, Bergshamra+46 (0)8 624 22 00On a little island in the near archipelago, in a grand light-yellow 19th century house, there is an ambitious Swedish restaurant. The chef was on the national team. The setting is bewitching, with an impeccable, exclusive lazy-day menu. Our summer favourite is the filet of trout. Getting there: Take the underground red line towards Mörby Centrum. Get off at Bergshamra (take the “Bergshamra S” exit) and take the road to the left, down towards the water. After about 10 minutes’ walk you will reach Bockholmen Hav & Restaurang. www.bockholmen.com
