Hi all,
Recently went to Nour in Stockholm with a group of 4 and had a great time. Nour is Japanese-Swedish cuisine, which means the vast majority of the menu was Japanese inspired dishes using local ingredients.
We took an 8 course tasting menu, which also include 5 "bites" beforehand. Standouts were the soba noodles, both parts of the quail main, the caviar course, and the stuffed roe bun. The quality of ingredients was extremely high and flavors were incredibly well balanced. Food overall was very solid and on par with other Swedish one star restaurants.
We did a mixed drink pairing which we gradually converted to a full alcohol pairing over the course of the dinner. It was a good mix of fresh juices, sake, and (mostly French) wines. Nothing standout, but well worth the money.
Service was outstanding. Profesional, but not stiff. Incredibly knowledgeable, not overbearing, and just overall a fun group. Ambience is relatively casual. We sat, ate, drank, and talked for 4 hours total since we were having such a good time.
Very good experience overall. It wasn't the best food or drinks we have ever had, but it was still top class and the overall evening was fantastic, especially at a relatively OK price point for Stockholm fine dining.
