Vacant job

Between the heights of Södermalm 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 pretense. Modern luxury without barriers and quality without hassle. The electric legacy of Slussen echoes in the walls here, from the catchy tunes of the discotheques to the timeless art of the subway and the distant basslines of late nights. Whether it's a spontaneous lunch, a quick glass, or a dinner that spills over into an unclear number of cocktails in the early hours. The city's pulse sets the tempo, from the first order to the last round, and Astrid provides the atmosphere.
