We took an elevator up to Gondolen's dining room and I swear, that was the smallest elevator I have seen in the world. It could barely fit 2 people.
The view was incredible. The Gamla Stan and harbour could be seen all at one glance.
And the cocktail bar was almost full by 8:30pm.
I was a little disappointed with the service right off get go. The waiting staff didn't look particularly interested in serving us.
Our first dish was a half lobster with toast, horseradish, mayonnaise and lemon. It was cold and bland. This was probably the first time I failed a lobster dish (2.5/10).
Slightly more attractive was the next course - pan seared scallops with a little garden green and cream (4.5/10).
Our main courses didn't fair much better than the starters. My grilled beef tenderloin was rough as any tire (2/10).
We also didn't finish our second main course which was a roasted duck breast served with risotto. I think our flight meal tasted better than these (2/10).
I hate to label it as a 'tourist trap" but apart from the view, I couldn't find anything interesting here at all.
