Petter Udland Johansen sings Carl Michael Bellman (1740-1795) in Swedish & German
 

description

He had a weakness for strongly spirited drinks and scantily dressed girls and he could not handle money either. He really enjoyed Stockholm’s taverns where he sang songs accompanied by a cister that delighted both the king and his drinking mates. He was a gifted improvisational poet and found tunes for his singing in just about any place. That is not to say that he pulled his art out of a hat: because art is nice, but hard work (German comedian Karl Valentin). Nowadays the genius songwriter Carl Michael Bellman is treasured as a poet laureate in Sweden. His songs always capture life in all its beauty and decrepitude and they always storm directly to the listener’s heart. True to the spirit of their creator we serve them with an opulent Sunday breakfast. Nota bene: a hangover is welcome but not required.

The buffet offers Scandinavian delicacies including salmon & matjes herring, köttbullar, roast beef & ham, a selection of salads & cheeses, blueberry pancakes, fresh waffles and much more. Hot drinks are included.

In cooperation with Mövenpick – Restaurant "Zur Historischen Mühle Sanssouci"
