Smörgåsbord · Stockholm
Sweden's signature buffet table: pickled herring in five sauces, gravlax, meatballs, Janssons frestelse, ham, cheese, knäckebröd, served as Christmas julbord and summer midsommar tables.
The smörgåsbord codified in the late 19th century as a Stockholm hotel-and-restaurant format and was exported to global recognition through the 1939 New York World's Fair Swedish Pavilion. The Christmas julbord is the contemporary version: ham, herring, lutfisk, meatballs, Jansson's temptation, prinskorv. Operakällaren, Sturehof and the saluhalls all run julbord sittings in December; the year-round version anchors hotel breakfasts.
