• Don't judge a restaurant by its name...

Most Caucasians who spent some time in China are probably familiar with the term "laowai" meaning a Caucasian foreigner and will have their own view on wether this is a derogatory term or not - whatever your view is, at Lao Wai in Stockholm you will certainly not feel as a foreigner! I spent a very nice evening in this restaurant with a friend and we were both impressed by the high quality of the food - fresh, flavoursome and authentic. The wine menu was ok, but a white wine without a wine cooler is actually not so cool... However the selection of tea was exquisite! The interior of the restaurant is plain and simple and thus makes it easier to focus on the excellent food :-) I truly appreciated the attentive service and Herbie Hancock as background music was actually more than I could have ask for. To put it in a nutshell if I would have to choose only one restaurant in Stockholm it would be Lao Wai.
