IKEA Swedish Market, Restaurant & Bistro

by JElu - July 24, 2018

It was a wonderful, hot summer day and my husband and I wanted to go window shopping for s few furniture we need for our office space. So what better place to visit but Ikea. I really like that store! If I had a big house and I had money to splurge, this would be the place I would go to. There are so many great room ideas and furniture that I want for our little space. But reality kicks in and I have to be reasonable on what is a need or a want. Besides the amazing products and room displays, they have a restaurant on the second floor that I really like. Okay when you think of wholesale places you would think that the food would be the simple greasy fast food like hotdogs, fries, simple sandwiches, soda, etc. Actually they do have that downstairs for that quick snack. But if you want a really good meal, than you need to visit the Swedish Market, Restaurant and Bistro. Its full of yummy and healthy food options. It has just the right amount of food on your plate and it will make you feel content. Everything is freshly made and ready to be served. The line was short, the cooks were friendly and ready to plate up your choice of meal and there is a ton of sitting options to enjoy your meal. They even have a kids menu, salad bar, dessert station, and drink station.

As we went through the line, we saw many yummy food options to eat and I chose their Braised beef with mashed potatoes, mixed veggies & a small salad (540 Calories meal / 280 calories salad) and Mika got the Salmon fillet with cauliflower mash and mixed veggies (485 Calories). And to be quite honest with you, it tasted really delicious. It had the right amount of flavor and seasoning that we were both amazed by it. Since we've been watching our food intake and calories, we both noticed that our tasted buds are high-ten and sensitive. Plus it has made our cravings and appetites more towards the smaller and lesser intake. But anyways, this restaurant is awesome and we enjoyed every moment of it. If you're in the area, walk through their amazing display rooms, drop your kids off at the play center and even enjoy their soft serve ice cream, which is the bomb.com! (Its really good)

Happy Eating everyone!!
