Fröken Vandal (Miss Vandal) may be Stockholm's first true hip hop wine bar, founded as it is by veteran rapper Petter and his crew.

But turn left, see the wine fridges bulging with vintage Barolos and you'll understand who's behind it: The Nebbiolo man Petter himself. The kitchen serves wine-friendly food and as a bonus it's open until 03 on weekends.

When the experienced sommeliers Robert Andersson and Fredrik Iveskär planned the wine bar Hornstulls Bodega in Stockholm, they said they wanted something messy. It might not sound that nice but messy is actually a code word for “non-formal, busy, great wines and great ambiance”. And that’s exactly what they built. The Hornstulls Bodega wine list reaches from classic greats to the latest cool. Nowadays Andersson and Iveskär have moved on to their own wine import firm, but the ambiance and ambitious wine selection remain.
