Foajén is Unity Jazz's little sister joint, or 'back pocket' (bakficka) as they're often called in Sweden. Bakficka restaurants and bars have a slightly nostalgic glow for the team behind Foajén: from the late 90s to the early 00s, the backficka was revolutionary, a hip place for them to hang out when the main bars were taken over by their parents. Nowadays, they have a different tone, but they've maintained the relaxed style and, like Unity Jazz, continue to be a place to socialise, eat and drink.
