Restaurant's Environmental Policy
We use Swedish and locally grown vegetables and fruits according to the season. We do not use foods produced with GMOs and avoid palm oil whenever possible. The bananas are eco-labeled, the fish is certified, and we plan to gradually increase the range of foods with Eco and KRAV labeling. We want to do our part for a better environment.
