Vacant job

Between Söder's heights and the alleys of Gamla Stan, Astrid takes the stage. In the kitchen, we tame the fire and give classic brasserie dishes an international attitude and a character backed by sharp flavors and zero virtue. Modern luxury without thresholds and quality without hassle. Here, Slussen's electric heritage echoes in the walls, from the catchy tones of the discotheques to the timeless artworks of the subway and the distorted bass lines of the late nights. Whether it's a spontaneous lunch, a quick drink, or a dinner that spills over into an uncertain number of cocktails into the early hours. The city's pulse sets the pace, from the first order to the last round, and Astrid sets the mood.
