Swedish Candy

Swedish candy
Swedish candy went viral last year on social media. And we sure love our lösgodis. This is a candy store at Slöjdgatan.

Nine street scenes

Barrels Bicycle messenger Café Cruiser The joy of shopping Nyårslöfte Brasserie vau de ville Drottninggatan Restaurant Ricordi A Careful Maneuver
Nine street photos from a recent walk in central Stockholm. Barrels is a burger place at Smålandsgatan. I noticed the bicycle messenger as he came out from an office at Hamngatan. The Café Cruiser was parked at the ice rink at Kungsträdgården. I spotted the happy dad carrying all the shopping bags at Biblioteksgatan, the most expensive street in the city, and that's where I also took the photo of the pop-up store that will sell Patek Philippe watches. Next, Brasserie vau de ville at Norrmalmstorg. The woman on the phone is walking down Drottninggatan, the busiest pedestrian street in the country. We continue to Kungsträdgårdsgatan where people were enjoying their lunch at Restaurant Ricordi. And then one last photo to prove that not everyone had the day off.
