In Sweden we are known for our "fika". The almighty Swedish coffee break. For Swedes, fika is nothing revolutionary; it's simply part of everyday life. But it isn't just a coffee break; it's a chance to slow down, to talk to each other and to rest your brain.
As written in Fika: The Art of the Swedish Coffee Break, "Functioning as both a verb and a noun, the concept of fika is simple. It is the moment that you take a break, often with a cup of coffee, but alternatively with tea, and find a baked good to pair with it. You can do it alone, you can do it with friends. You can do it at home, in a park or at work. But the essential thing is that you do it, that you make time to take a break: that's what fika is all about."
At Radisson Blu Metropol we think FIKA is important and we love to create and serve it!
