Restaurant Awards- Gulddraken 2016

This year's first restaurant awards/guide/list has been announced. It is the Gulddraken (the golden dragon) which is awarded by the newspaper Dagens Nyheter. to the best restaurants in Stockholm. What makes this award especially interesting is that they give awards in three different categories (luxury, mid-ranged and budget) as well as for best bar and others. This is great as not everyone can afford luxury restaurants. Another good point is that the jury (Krogkommissionen) is made up of Stockholmers in the know, so it is based on local expertise. The winners as well as nominees:

Budget-

• Winner: Ai Ramen
• The other nominees: The Artisan, Barobao, Katarina Ölkaffé and Falafelbaren. 

Mid-range-

• Winner: The Flying Elk
