I thought this bistro in the Gamla Stan (Old Town) section of Stockholm was so lovely. I didn’t know it at the time, but Under Kastanjen means “under the chestnut tree,” and that is indeed a chestnut. Would love to go back and spend more time there.
Great weekend, everyone!

Pearls & Prose 
Lovely picture! Great weekend to you too!
Thank you!
It looks like a lovely place to spend a quiet moment.
I love chestnuts but most of the European trees are ill and lose their leaves by July/August.
It’s very sad.
Oh my, that is sad. I loved the smell of roasting chestnuts in Germany during the winter.
No worries – those don’t come from the same trees. 🙂
OMG, I can’t believe you posted that, I am going there in September, on my way to Munich/ Germany, for the wedding of one of my nieces. I will have a stop over in Stockholm for 3 nights and I am excited to see this city and staying at a hostel on a ship which is near to Gamla Stan.
Lucky you! Two of my favorite places in the world. I think you will really enjoy Stockholm, Cornelia.
I wouldn’t mind having a Swedish coffee and pastry under that tree. We have a Swedish coffeehouse in my neighborhood called Konditori. The Swedish owners tell me that means “meeting place.” 🙂
How cool! I used to frequent konditorei in Germany and loved looking at all the goodies they had there.
what a cool place and photo 🙂
Thanks!
What a relaxing space.
Truly. Thanks so much for stopping by.
