Tastebud : Surfers Stockholm

17 September 2024

My friend and I chose a Chinese-themed restaurant to celebrate Mooncake Festival today. Surfers seems like a place that is recommended. But I do not recommend it. Portions are small and prices are high. When I arrived at the place, I realised I was in a rich-persons area - Östermalm. The street 'Biblioteksgatan' where all luxury brand stores are located is a street next to the restaurant. So, it is not surprising of the high prices. Well, at least I have tried this place and I know that I will not come back here again. Haha!

We shared 4 dishes.

1) 5 individual ribs marinated in 5 spices - 149kr
2) Ginger-scented tofu that is fried twice - 139kr. The tofu pieces are so small... oh goodness. It is tasty, though due to the twice fried. No ginger smell.  
3) Bang bang chicken breast - 139kr.
4) Dan dan noodles -169kr. A small bowl of noodles with 2 pak choy leaves and peanuts for that price. Such daylight robbery. My friend was keen on dan dan noodles so we ordered it. I have heard of this dish and I wondered what is special about it. Apparently, it is the chilli oil. The noodles are slightly chewy.

As usual, I took a photo of my hand with the food to show the size of the portions. See what I mean with the tofu..

Rice is included. Phew. I would be sad if I have to pay for rice. Our rice for 2 in the metal container that is insulated with wood. The rice remained warm throughout the entire meal.
