    The yogurt parfait looked good with the deconstruction as a nice elegant touch. The Nordico was expensive for being so small. In addition the bread was crumbly and cold rye which is good for soups but not for salmon; nowadays the ryes for salmon are pillowy. I know it's classic to use a crumbly rye but that's changed. The coffee was burnt drip coffee so I wouldn't order that again either. The ambience is classic hotel coffee bar, clean with classic wood chairs. I liked it for conversation. The staff was nice too, I don't know who says they're impolite.

    I haven’t tried anything here yet, simply because I didn’t really feel like it this time. The display didn’t look very fresh, and although there were quite a few staff members, there were no guests, and the team seemed busy with something else. I got the impression that the food quality might not be great, even though I’ve seen many positive reviews about this place. I hope next time I’ll have a better experience and get to try something for myself.
