Overview
Hemlagat, which literally means "home cooked" in Swedish, serves homestyle foods in a restaurant setting. The dishes made with traditional Swedish recipes will remind you of Mom's (or Grandma's) cooking.
Located close to Hoehyeon Station, Hemlagat is a good place to try a little bit of Scandinavian culture as well. As it is a Swedish tavern ('Krog' in Swedish), they serve traditional Swedish liquors and snack pairings. The staff speaks English, Japanese, Chinese and the menu is also available in the aforementioned languages.
