AXEL House Tapas

Hotel Guldsmeden has always had a preference for
organic products – especially those that we eat and
drink – and we must admit that we are becoming quite
fundamentalist in our old age... This is of course only
possible because the range of high-quality organic
products has widened immeasurably since we opened
our first little hotel in 1999.
We can honestly say that every single item that ends
up on our table is either organic (around 95%), or has
a seriously good reason for not being so. If it’s not
organic, we know the story and the background.

In the name of sustainability, we try to look at the whole
picture, and weigh up the pros and the cons – fair-trade,
free-range, local produce, transportation methods – all
these concerns play a part in our decision process.
Organic and sustainable produce is not in itself
synonymous with a healthy diet – it takes more than
that. In our book, healthy food means lots of fresh
vegetables, fresh organic or free-range meat, more than
a glance at the natural seasonal cycle and a knowledge
of the top super-foods.
