CJWDT: Sweden'12






















CJWDT'12 Gastro'N'omad tour continues.... Now I'm in Gothenburg, Sweden. Same as Denmark, this is my 2nd visit in Sweden since 2010. Gothenburg, I came first time this time certainly reminds me of Stockholm and look like bigger Copenhagen. The pic is took here in Gothenburg.... the weather is terribly cold yet, the breath of Spring is found around the corner, beautiful cherry blossom.... I wonder when my spring comes... around the corner or miles away!! (a bitter smile)

In my opinion Spain used to be the mecca making modern gastronomic rev0loution in the world. And now, 2012 I think it is here, Scandinavia is the hottest spot in the world!! Many young chefs opening an innovative and inspiring restaurants all over. I don't think Sweden is 'food' city such as Italy, Spain, France and Hong Kong, but I have no doubt this country is growing one of the most exciting gastronomic scene in the world.

The followings are the list I made for this time:

I had a pleasant stage at Linea art restaurant the other day, but no luck with any Stockholm restaurants sadly. From my experience Job-hunting is really depends on luck and timing, especially sous chef position.... the chance is so slim..... I have about 3wks left in Europe union countries, then I must leave! I was planning to go to Stockholm right after Gothenburg, but now I decided to go to plan B..... Oslo, Norway NEXT!
