Number 51 : Barabicu

This place has long been on my list of places to go to but each time I passed by in the summer it had always been packed. Location wise it sits perfectly between Linné and the city centre so it is an ideal meeting place for people that live or work between the two areas.

The food tasted very nice and the presentation was good. The menu is influenced from North and South America and offers a good variation. Despite being busy the service still managed to be attentive and professional. The choice of food consisted mainly of lots of meat and fish dishes bit there was also vegetarian options available was well. 

The interior was fresh and lively. The atmosphere busy and active. I can see why this place is fast becoming a popular After Work venue. Be sure to check out the cocktails as well if you are passing by.

Number 50 : Cuckoo's Nest

Still within the Göteborg region I ventured over the river and ended up on Hissinge and at Cuckoo's Nest, the restaurant to the Radisson Blu hotel. 

The food was extremely well presented, although in some respects I found it quite plain. The menu looked adventurous and offered good contrast but I just felt that the meals were very basic in their substance. Another down side was that it took a long time for the food to arrive.

The restaurant / eating area was certainly fresh and modern. With Chalmers next door the whole environment is built with a science theme in mind which made for a unique talking point. Another plus side was that the staff were friendly and accommodating.
