Swedish Food: My Best Bites in Sweden

Traveling to Sweden for two weeks gave me ample opportunity to discover traditional Swedish foods. 

Locally-caught fish, game meat, colorful berries, and delicious pastries all played a starring role in my experience.

I also discovered eating well in Sweden doesn’t have to cost a fortune. 

While it’s true the overall cost of travel is higher than in other countries such as Thailand and Colombia, there are cheap eats, food trucks, and good deals to be found. 

Plus, if you’re taking advantage of a travel rewards program like Marriott Bonvoy, then whatever you’re spending can benefit you later. 

What follows are my best bites in Sweden based on time in the two largest cities, Stockholm and Gothenburg, as well as my journey north to Västerbotten in Swedish Lapland. 

Stockholm

As I began my adventure in Stockholm, severely jetlagged I might add, it was here that I first delved into traditional Swedish foods.
