fika at Sturekatten

The Swedish people have a daily tradition called fika (pronounced "feeka") which involves taking a break to hang out with friends or colleagues to have a sweet and tea or espresso. Even the largest time-is-money corporate offices in Sweden take the time to do this every day. Yep... I took quite naturally to this tradition. I went to this awesome little place for fika called Sturekatten. Really great pastries and cakes, and the best espresso that I found in Stockholm. It used to be an old lady's home, and she left it to the crown, after which it became the Sturekatten. You have to go up two narrow windy staircases to get to it.
