OT: All Things Swedish

[ZEBROA]

The famous Kebabizza makes an appearance. Also heard they serve beer at McDonalds. Need confirmation.

Dont know about the beer. But Kebabpizza is great. Pizza good, Kebab good, whats not to like?

The last time I was at McDonald's they served beer, but it's something like a 2,2 %.

Everything I know about Sweden comes from MidSommar

Haven't seen it yet but was disappointed when I heard it was shot in Budapest, Hungary

My grandmother makes potatis korv for Christmas.

Had to google it since I've never heard of it, everyday you learn something new. Apparantly it's from Värmland (a province) and is popular there. Also called Värmlandskorv

All you need to know to understand Sweden is that we use the same word (gift) for "married" and "poison". True story.

Soooo if anyone is traveling to Stockholm for the games - a word of advice.
You know that hyped kebabtallrik (kebab plate) and kebab pizza. Eat it AFTER the game or in good time before. It's probably one of the least sanitary things you'll eat in your life and most kebab places aren't that clean if you know what I mean. You shouldn't expect a food poisoning but you could have a reaction from it. Also, the city of Stockholm hit a lot of places some years ago with fines/closing them down and it should be much, much better now.

There are some hipster places for kebab but I wouldn't recommend that since it wouldn't what the swedish hockey players refers to when talking about it. If you find a place with an open kitchen where you can see them prepare it (there are plenty) you are probably safe.

Rasmus Dahlin just said on the swedish broadcast that the thing he miss the most about Sweden is the kebab, just sayin'

I would also like to mention milk chocolate (marabou). When I lived overseas I craved it like crazy

I think anyone who's had doner kebabs anywhere in Europe would miss it if they traveled outside Europe. I never had a bad doner kebab in Europe, even late-night. I've yet to have a doner kebab in the US as good as any I had in Europe. It's truly tragic.
