So happy to be back at Varvets. The new management has brought the excellent standard back to its previous glory. We started our evening with the tasty and refreshing summer strawberry and basil cocktail. For our starters, we had the Varvets oysters as well as the au naturel fin de Claire. The creamy horseradish sauce on the Varvets ostron Gurka was heavenly. The au naturel were served with shallots in red vinegar - yummy. Our main dishes was the Råbiff, karl-johansemulsion, kantareller & kålrabbi and Svensk Ryggbiff med kappa, silverlök, bearnaisesås & pommes frites. The mushroom emulsion and kantarels paired very well with the beef. A definite must have menu item that screams Umami. The sirloin was cooked to the perfect requested rare temperature and the accompanying Béarnaise was so good, we asked for a second serving. To round the evening off, we shared the Chokladkräm, svartvinbärsorbet, hasselnötter, olivolja & flingsalt. Chapeau chef! This was inspired. We wondered how olive oil would fit into the dessert, it just works. During our week in the Torekov area, we went to Varvets twice. That's how much we enjoyed the restaurant. The staff were very attentive and friendly. While we were there, we saw one of their servers go outside to call the father and his young daughter when their food had arrived. That is going over and beyond! Thanks for the wonderful evenings.
Wonderful evening! We focused on the hot and meze. Enjoyed every dish. The lamb racks were a highlight as well as the grilled halloumi and the Baba ghanoush. Family recipes show the pride and joy they have for the food.
