Totally Stockholm CULTUR BAR February 19, 2014

If you’re one of those people that usually avoids Stockholm’s Old Town for fear of getting caught among tourist masses chasing plastic viking helmets and handmade Dala horses, you might want to reconsider your stance.  The Old Town is quickly making a name for itself as the city’s most vital culinary district. Place like 19 Glas, Pubologi and The Flying Elk have lead the way, and the latest ambitious restaurant to set up shop here is Cultur Bar, a wine and tapas bar with a focus on food and drinks from southern Europe.

Located on one of the neighbourhood’s coziest streets – especially on a dark December evening – Cultur Bar is great for a romantic dinner, but works just as well for an impromptu glass of wine and some quick snacks with friends.

The dining room is dimly lit and furnished in a sort of hip wine cellar manner, with oak tables, Moroccan tile floors and rows of wine bottles setting the scene. With only an hour and 15 minutes in our hands, we’re worried our dinner might become one of those stressful experiences where you first wait for 45 minutes, then eat for 15 and finally wait for the bill in frustration, but the lovely waiter says it won’t be a problem and calmly pours us two glasses of Deutz champagne, one of the wonderful wines the restaurant has on its carefully-chosen wine list.

After that, the tapas start arriving in the order the kitchen prepares them. The menu is mainly a mix of dishes from France, Spain and Italy; there’s a selection of snacks and cold dishes, hot dishes and a few meat dishes from the rotisserie. The extensive menu offers something for everyone.
