Garbo - The Swedish Restaurant
This is a restaurant called GARBO'S. Located at 42 Crawford Street, London in England.
Garbo's is very cosy inviting Swedish restaurant close to Baker Street. It had a “bistro like” atmosphere, but the quality and attention to detail of a quality restaurant. It was cosy, cheerful and intimate. The floors were polished wood, the walls were painted white and decorated with a large amount of memorabilia including; pictures of the Swedish royal family, copious prints of Great Garbo and a very large moose's head (the eyes of which seemed to follow me around the room).
The tables were laid with linen cloths and napkins, with a touch of the IKEA in the condiment display. There was a fresh carnation on every table. This restaurant has been there for a few years and has a good reputation.
