Mondo tapas

Very close to Stockholm’s leafy Observatorielunden Park stands the restaurant Mondo Tapas, where Spain has left its mark on both the cuisine and the décor. Ideal for lunch, catering or just a celebratory glass of cava on their terrace, Mondo is suitable for all occasions.

Striking gold with its array of tapas – hot, cold and vegetarian too – Mondo’s grilled halloumi and pan-friend beetroots, fried chilli-garlic potatoes and marinated artichokes are hits with flavour-seeking diners. Tuck into their meat dishes, which range from delectably garlicky chicken legs with a hint of chilli, right through to bacon-wrapped and cheese-stuffed dates. The drinks menu at Mondo Tapas leaves you frazzled with choice, offering sangria, cider and beers on tap too.

Brightness abounds thanks to the red and orange beams dispersed from the lampshades, which – combined with the stylish furniture – gives Mondo Tapas a laid-back vibe. Mondo Tapas at Odengatan 47 in Stockholm is just a few minutes away from Odenplan metro station, where a number of bus lines can be found too. Stockholm’s city library, built in classic 20th-century Nordic style, is close by and certainly merits a visit.
