Culinary hotspot Malmö is teeming with award-winning and inspiring restaurants that the locals love to visit and talk about – from humble fish stalls to Michelin-star gastropubs. The Scanian capital has it all, from interesting hospitality traditions to the battle for Sweden's best falafel. Local ingredients and new influences combine in unexpected ways, but you'll never be far from a classic kebab or a slice of traditional apple pie.
Competition pushes down prices, especially since Malmö is a dense and flat city where diners can easily take themselves onwards to the next pub or pit stop. But even if the walking distances may be short, Malmö is still a big city packed with things to explore and enjoy.

Little Square (Lilla torg) is something of a culinary centre of gravity within Malmö. In the summertime, the terraces on the square and in the surrounding streets of Gamla Väster function as a casual meeting point for hungry Malmöites. But even tourists will have no trouble finding their way here, as the square is located close to both hotels and local transport connections.
This charming and historic place dates back to the 1590s and is just a stone's throw away from Stortorget square. Few places in Malmö can rival the atmosphere and the wide range of food for all tastes that is on offer here. Restaurants serving American, Italian, Japanese and Scottish cuisine are all huddled together in one place. Many of the venues operate as bars as well, so make sure you choose a seat in the right area if you've come down for some grub.

Möllevång Square, or Möllan as it's known by locals, is a multi-cultural and pulsating hub on Malmö's culinary map, and the starting point for many an evening on the town.

During the day, you can buy lunch and fresh ingredients from the market square. In the evenings, the pace picks up and a wide array of restaurants open their doors to feed hungry diners. There's all sorts on offer, but award-winning fare from Asia and the Middle East take centre stage.

Jalla Jalla is known far and wide for their great falafel, cosy atmosphere and friendly service. Malmöites take their falafel seriously and love nothing more than debating and ranking their favourite joints, with Jalla Jalla normally coming in at first or second place. This fast-food favourite can be found on the street of Bergsgatan surrounded by concert venues and nightclubs, so it's closely associated with the city's nightlife.
Despite the huge outdoor terrace, it can get quite cramped inside when hungry night owls descend, so set your sights on a daytime lunch or a quiet evening if you can. And if you're not feeling in the mood for deep-fried fare, they also have fresh kebabs and peanut burgers on the menu.

Lyran restaurant's decision to bet on good-quality, local ingredients in exciting combinations turned out to be a winner. This popular and award-winning restaurant is located in Möllevången in the heart of Malmö, but keeps one foot in the local countryside through its good nature and traditional fare. And yet the spirit of innovation feels right at home in the big city.

The restaurant's location is a little off the beaten path, tucked away in the corner of a residential area, so it can be a little more difficult to find but is also quieter and more relaxed.

Carnivore Steak House is a dream come true for Malmö's meat-eaters where they can enjoy South and North American styles of cooking that put the meat itself firmly centre stage. The popular restaurant is located in the district of Rörsjöstaden, east of the centre, and is well connected by local buses. The area is also a less stressful place to find parking compared with the tourist trail.
As is often the case with restaurants that are serious about meat, the variety of dishes is less expansive with guests able to choose between beef, lamb, chicken, salmon, burgers, a veggie spice wok and little more than that. Delicious sides such as chips, garlic bread and salad are also on offer as the perfect accompaniment to the main event. Certain to satisfy the cravings of just about any carnivore.

Vollmers is a shining star on the local culinary scene with two coveted Michelin stars to its name and a reputation for elevating New Nordic cuisine to perfection. The tiny restaurant in the neighbourhood of Gamla Väster is a stone's throw away from Little Square (Lilla torg) and attracts foodies from all across Northern Europe. The restaurant is known for its tasting menu with an alternative touch.
Dishes are based around the seasons and the availability of fresh, local ingredients. In fact, restaurateur Ebbe Vollmer gives a whole new meaning to the term homegrown – the menu even cites the number of kilometres away to the origin of each ingredient. A restaurant that dares to give its dishes names like "Suddenly in Vinslöv" is sure to be unique.
