Klappbryggan

Klappbryggan seems to be a hidden gem in a quiet suburb in Stockholm. My brother just moved to the area and has dined here three times all ready, so My dining experience here is thanks to his recommendations. He did suggest their hamburger, but unfortunately they were out. Their lunch menus are very cheap, for just under 100sek I got my meal, a salad, freshly baked bread, and coffee and cookies. Fun fact… Each day has a pre made daily menu option. My options were chicken or fish, just like an airline :) I decided on the chicken. The dish was called a «flying Jacob» chicken on rice in curry sauce, bacon, and bananas. But today was no day for monkey business, so I ordered mine with out the bananas (just like Burger King, the restaurant let’s you have it your way) The food came out very fast, the chicken was juicer than expected, actually it was very moist. The yellow curry sauce was a delight that was soaked up by the rice, and the bits and pieces of bacon in the mix blended up nice. Not a bad dish for a pre cooked lunch menu, we all almost licked our plates. As far as the staff and the restaurant in general, I must say that the staff was super friendly and there was no lack or delay in service. The restaurant it self was clean and well decorated. Only one bathroom though, but it too was very clean. I would like to visit again, if time permits, and tackle the chefs interpretation of the classic hamburger. By the way, an interesting observation… As the restaurant was empty at about 2:30pm, the employees all sat at a table and had lunch together with their manager. Even the chef was allotted a brief lunch brake outside in the sun with his well prepared meal. I felt that it gave the restaurant a family touch and a feeling of cohesiveness, it seems as if they treat their employees very well. I give it 4 stars since they ran out of stock and could not serve up my original request of a hamburger ;)
