Last night, as we had a glass of wine with a friend, we kept noticing all the flashing blue lights of police cars directly across from us on Kungsholmen, another of the islands in the city center. At first, we just thought it was the usual block off of Norr Mälarstrand for visiting dignitaries. But then we saw the flames. The restaurant Kungsholmen was on fire. Quickly, we got on line and determined from a local newspaper that no one was hurt. Then we felt sad for the owner – Melker Andersson – whose restaurant Grill burned down just a few years ago. And then we felt bad for ourselves as this restaurant on the water was one of our favorites. We will miss it. I hope it comes back.
