Papa Hungry - Food Adventures

Papa’s been on some well deserved vacacionesor as a few like to call it… “out getting milk.” 🥛😂Plot twist: Papa actually returned.Episode #44 is served with Head Chef Leon Olsson of newly opened @restaurangbo , sister spot to cocktail bar @adamogbg.Leon sharpened his knives in the kitchens of wine bar Barrique and fine dining gem Somm (now closed). To name two.Now he’s cooking through a Mediterranean lens with comforting flavors and creative little twists that might just poke the food rulebook a bit.We talk creativity, challenging norms, and of course… a bit of delicious nonsense.Special thanks to ⁠@islandsprins⁠ for letting us disturb the order of ⁠@drinks20⁠ 🫣Enough typing. Time to chat some sh*t.

New Years was yesterday, a new year is today.. let’s get going with ep #42 of @papahungry031 🏃🏻‍♂️💨Spankingly new episode entering the world later this evening, possibly after midnight. We’ll see when I’m reasonably happy with the editing 🫣Papa sat down with F&B of newly opened @hernoginbar_gbg @j2__times .A gin lovers paradise, or really any lover of a person who enjoys a soliiiid spot.I will say this. Their kroppkakor *A type of Swedish dumpling* is a strong contender for best dish in Gothenburg. Creamy, crispy and comforting. Try it if you haven’t. It feels as if they’re doing something a tiiiny bit different than what the city’s seen in awhile which is fun for us foodies.High praise and well deserved!PS; Secret has it, it’s JJ’s grandma’s recipe 🤫!We talk about loads of stuff. Tune in.I saved a seat at the table… 🫡

Party people, Episode #41 of Papa Hungry is upon us!Pâo de queijo was served (a sort of Brazilian cheese bread) and solid chat was had!!Jean Henkel, Chef Owner of acclaimed Restaurang Carbon in Gothenburg is the guest of the evening and also nice enough to let us sit and record in the restaurant (Pssst he also baked the bread).Stories from the past were told regarding Jean's time in London where he began his culinary carreer which later resulted in working in the kitchen of Marco Pierre White. We discuss is fine dining dying? And would you serve mustard on ice cream? hahahHope you enjoy the episode as much as papa did.Ps: Disclaimer, Papa tried to improve the visuals for you. Ended up making the quality worse haha. This episode is in audio only. DsI saved a seat at the table....

Having previously worked at the likes of Bar Bruno, Drinks 20 and now recently the hype train Umarell just next door.

Papa played the uno reverse card on this one!Interviewing a journalist.In this case the best kind, Hilma!! And she writes about food and the people behind it :))Having written pieces and talked with some of the most well recognized names on the Gothenburg foodie scene (and beyond).Including Nikola aka Foodandcoffeeegbg, Broth Boy and also The Bear star Matty Matheson (Not so Swedish) just to name a few.Hear why restaurant folk are people pleasers (the good kind), How did she land the interview with Matty and why should we stop rating food?All of this and a tiny bit more coming upppppp.We saved a seat at the table!PS; Special thanks to Carbon Restaurang who let us record during dinner service, much love!

Papa enjoys his coffee so clearly there has to be more coffee episodes. And if he does say so himself. This one packs a punch 🥊 Not more than an espresso shot, but probably equal🤷🏻‍♂️#37 of @papahungry031 with owner of @a43coffee @aldrinknezky who arguably serves the best coffee in Gothenburg.Arguably = “Argue With Me”Andddd no we don’t speak on how overrated matcha is even though we probably should have (Papa’s opinion).I saved a seat at the table!

That’s always a good sign!We talk drink creations, if we live to work or work to live and what did the local actually say to @michael.john.s when he just started working in the bar in the Caribbean??

It was a rainy and sleep deprived Sunday and Chef Frida was nice enough to chat some shit about great grub.Gurras, arguably one of the most popular and probably BEST restaurants in Gothenburg. You can call their food a lot of things but boring is not one of them!Challenging norms, breaking ''rules'' and at the same time serving delish. It's a must visit for anyone who likes creative and tasty food.The episode is in Swedish. English subtitles released tomorrow (It takes a f*ck ton of time, so we'll start like this) .Hear more about how we as parents actually teach our kids what food to like (and dislike), why Italian purist might have a heart attack eating at Gurras and why Papa was wrong about signature dishes…I saved a seat at the table!

One of those episodes where time just flew by ⏱️🛩️This episode, #29 is also a contender for being among the very best. At least if you ask Papa. A lot of them lately 😂🤔@marcbrennan of @carbon_restaurang providing the 20+ years of hospitality knowledge at one of the most innovative, high quality spots in Gothenburg.I was genuinely shocked at the amount of detail and insight he shared. Dropping some serious value bombs in this episode 🔥🔥🔥🔥This is a straight up beast of an episode and I’m pretty sure it will be one of the most appreciated ones for a looong time.This is hospitality and service 101.I saved a seat at the table 🍴

Straight from Papa’s treasure chest of culinary good shit in Gothenburg (Not including, hyped boring places..they can stand on their own feet)🏴‍☠️🏦Still actually contemplating on sharing the list hahah.The majority of these gems of spots are my absolute go to’s with a mix of under appreciated restaurants, cafés and bars. A few of them get roses, most of them not as much as they deserve 🌹Some of them don’t actually even want more attention (my bad). I feel like the gringo destroying the local areas with more tourism 👦🏼🥲😇Prepare for some of the best dishes and drinks in Gothenburg. Love you always/ Papa ♥️

Episode #6 of Papa Hungry with Peterparkergbg aka Peter Johnsson If you’re a boring or sensitive person. Then this episode will probably offend you. If that's not you, then you'll probably enjoy this one. Expect personality. Peter has 20+ years of experience behind the bar and it's safe to say he knows his stuff when it comes to mixing drinks. I don't think I know of anyone in Gothenburg who balances cocktails better than Peter. 100% worth the visit! Having worked at some of Gothenburg's favorite spots. You nowadays find him at View Skybar & Restaurant in Hotel Riverton. I've saved a seat at the table for you, have listen while we chop it up! Let's dig in!
