Split pea soup and pancakes, Sweden

On September 23, 2014 by Emil

Apparently there is a Thursday tradition of eating split pea soup and pancakes in Sweden.  And by Thursday, it seems many people do this just about EVERY Thursday.  A guy at the hostel had got a recommendation for a good place (and the lowdown on the tradition) so we headed over to try it.

Pretty good, first the soup (with side of sausage and ham):

And to go with it, pancakes…

The restaurant was actually in a square in the Old Town, but despite the touristy location we actually ran into the guy’s friends (local Swedish folk) who were eating there too.  So we had expectations of getting an authentic meal!  The price included a pretty massive salad bar too.

Now this was a tradition I could get behind…
