Here is the Fäviken story: how it became a world-class destination, how the industry it was a part of has changed, and why Magnus eventually elected to pursue new projects. Fäviken: 4015 Days, Beginning to End is a vital commentary on food culture today and includes illuminating essays on subjects as wide ranging as creativity; balancing familial responsibilities while running a restaurant; the hypocrisy of sustainability in restaurants; the search for lagom; social media; imitation vs. plagiarism; haute cuisine; the art of hospitality; and the importance of craft over innovation. The book also includes a chronological list of every dish ever served at the restaurant and highlights 100 memorable recipes. The book's stunning photography includes a mixture of archival photographs and newly shot images of the food, the restaurant, the staff, and the surrounding setting of Northern Sweden. A textural cover made of blue cloth and red paper with a wood-grain effect references the shape and color of the Fäviken building. Magnus Nilsson is the author of Fäviken (2012), The Nordic Cookbook (2015), Nordic: A Photographic Essay of Landscapes (2016), and The Nordic Baking Book (2018), all published with Phaidon. Read more
REVIEW
I been waiting for this book for a few month and i could not help reading most of it in one long sitting. Growing up not to far from Fäviken and having the great luck of enjoying a meal there with my son back in 2018 at the slagbordet makes it a very special read. The idea of writing a book about a closed restaurant is bizarre in a way but I think this book captures it so well for us that had the blessing of eating there and for those who never will get the chance. In a way im one of the later too. I really wanted to go back in late summer to experience what they would have shared with us with summer produce and this book give at least a hint of what it could have been. Just the images takes me back to my meal there and experiences i had in my childhood on a farm outside Ånge in Medelpad, Sweden. The book is a nice mix of recipes, stories behind them and sections about techniques and philosophies. If you in any way are facinated by Magnus Nilsson and Fäviken, you just have to own this book.
