Yesterday Dale and I made a visit to the American Swedish Institute for lunch at FIKA. The following is from the restaurant's website:
"FIKA is the acclaimed New Nordic cuisine restaurant helmed by Executive Chef Dustin Thompson inside the American Swedish Institute. [It is c]ited by the Minneapolis Star Tribune as having the 'Best lunch in Minnesota'..."
"...FIKA boasts a seasonally-inspired, family friendly menu dedicated to regional ingredients and Nordic traditions with a contemporary twist."
Top left: I started with a cup of glogg (The word is pronounced like you're saying the word glue with a /g/ at the end. I know this because our kind waitress pronounced it for me after I asked. She added with a smile that "there is no judgement here.").
Top right: Dale and I each ordered a cup of the cabbage soup. Divine.
Bottom left: We shared and order of meatballs with lingonberries over mashed potatoes. Also divine.
Bottom right: We also both ordered the salmon smorgas (open faced sandwich) with beet relish. Yes, this too was divine. It was ALL divine. On top of this the portions were very reasonably sized.
