Aira has conquered two Michelin stars in just a few years, and there is certainly a good reason for that. We were here and enjoyed a lunch in the middle days and Stockholm was covered in snow, and the trip to Djurgården felt like a fairy tale through Narnia. The only "inconvenience" but also the charm is that Aira is located at the far end of Djurgården, which makes it somewhat challenging to reach by public transport, but at the same time the place is incredibly beautiful.
For me, the first impression and welcome is very important. We received a very nice and professional treatment and almost imperceptibly the staff took our jackets and noted our names. After this, we got a briefing of the kitchen and the room before we sat down in the lounge for champagne and canapés while the Finland ferries passed close outside, which gave a magical feeling.
Once we were shown to our table, I noticed that all the tables, except for the executive table and the chambre separé, were round, which contributed to a beautiful atmosphere. The service throughout the lunch was for me perfect, elegant and professional but with a personal touch.
We chose the big menu and wow what food. Each serving was unique in both appearance and taste, and the porcelain itself was a work of art. For me, the food was what impressed me the most. However, there was an incredible amount of food and at the coffee candy I couldn't get down a bit more.
We chose to choose wine by the glass instead of a drink package and received nice guidance from one of the restaurant's sommeliers.
If I had to point out something negative, it was the music, which felt slightly too modern and pop for the elegant experience. It was a bit too up-tempo for my taste, but that's a matter of taste.
The price tag of 5000 SEK, including tips, was just as expected for such an experience. Thank you Aira for a magical moment, and Stockholm can really feel lucky to have such a fantastic restaurant
