Peaky

Slow food for fast people

Once upon a time, barely 100 years ago, the world was in the midst of the “Great Depression” – and the idea for Peaky was born from this period. It doesn’t sound entirely cheerful – but what we have taken to heart and been inspired by is people’s need to seek distractions from the seriousness of everyday life – and focus on food, drink, entertainment and social gatherings. We have looked at supper clubs, speakeasys and set our sights on the Cotton Club, one of the most famous nightclubs in New York during the 1920s and 1930s. From here we have picked the gems: to eat well, take a little time for yourself, let yourself be carried away by the entertainment, enjoy a drink, meet friends and maybe even meet new ones.

At Peaky, you shouldn't have to spend a fortune, but you should be able to meet friends over a snack and a glass of wine. The food has taken its inspiration from a time when people appreciated "real food", which is cooked from scratch. The core is found in Swedish food culture, but every now and then we also look over the sea.
