Hillenberg is entering a new chapter. On 24 August, the restaurant will reopen following a considered refresh, with a new Mediterranean-inspired menu, an updated interior and Linnea Jarnrot as Head Chef.<\/b><\/p>\n
Linnea Jarnrot became one of the youngest-ever winners of <\/span>Sveriges M\u00e4sterkock<\/span><\/i> and has since worked in restaurants as well as made several guest appearances at Hillenberg. Now returning to Hillenberg as Head Chef, she will lead the creative direction behind the restaurant\u2019s new menu concept, where Swedish ingredients meet flavours from across the Mediterranean.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cJust a year ago, I stepped into the Sveriges M\u00e4sterkock kitchen. To be given this opportunity only a year later feels like a dream, almost too good to be true,\u201d<\/span><\/i> says Linnea Jarnrot.<\/span><\/p>\n The menu is designed to work equally well for sharing around the table or ordering as individual dishes. Highlights include whole grilled sea bass with mojo rojo and gratinated langoustines topped with pangrattato. Hillenberg is also introducing Linnea\u2019s Selection, a recurring feature that gives guests new dishes to discover each week. The ambition is for Hillenberg to remain a natural choice for business lunches, long dinners and spontaneous evenings at the bar, now with a menu shaped by Linnea Jarnrot.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe food takes inspiration from all around the Mediterranean, from Spain, France and Italy to Lebanon, Greece and Morocco. The menu is uncomplicated but carefully considered, with flavours that feel both natural and thoughtfully chosen. I\u2019m also especially happy to have brought in a few influences from Sweden\u2019s west coast,\u201d<\/span><\/i> Linnea continues.<\/span><\/p>\n Hillenberg has been located on Humleg\u00e5rdsgatan since 2015, with Niklas Ekstedt as a driving force behind the restaurant since 2018. When Linnea Jarnrot won <\/span>Sveriges M\u00e4sterkock<\/span><\/i> in 2025, Niklas was a member of the judging panel. Since the programme, their relationship has developed into a mentorship, making Linnea\u2019s move into the kitchen at Hillenberg a natural next step.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHillenberg has always been about good food, warmth and being the kind of restaurant you want to return to. It feels incredibly exciting to hand over the kitchen to Linnea, who already knows the restaurant and has a clear vision of her own,\u201d<\/span><\/i> says Niklas Ekstedt.<\/span><\/p>\n Returning guests will still recognise Hillenberg, while experiencing the restaurant in a new way. The wine list, which has been built up over the past decade, will continue to evolve, while the cocktail menu will be refreshed with inspiration from the kitchen\u2019s new direction.<\/span><\/p>\n Hillenberg reopens on 24 August, with reservations already available at hillenberg.se.
