The story of Lilla Ego

Lilla Ego on Västmannagatan 69 in Vasastan was started by chefs Tom Sjöstedt and Daniel Räms. As early as 2014 it came second when the magazine Senses ranked Stockholm's best restaurants.

The room is plain, with bare brick walls, big windows and counter seats looking into the kitchen. The menu is handwritten in marker on large flip-chart sheets taped to the wall. The cooking is modern Swedish classics, and potato rösti with vendace roe is among the dishes reviewers have written about. The restaurant is listed in the Michelin Guide.

Sun on the terrace, according to Stoligt

Times look wrong, for example because the terrace is on the other side of the building? Fix the location in OpenStreetMap and Stoligt will follow at the next update.

How Stoligt works it out

Every ten minutes we draw a line from each terrace toward the sun and check whether a building or hill is tall enough to block it. Building heights come from OpenStreetMap and ground heights from Lantmäteriet, the Swedish mapping agency. The times assume a clear day, so clouds are not included here. They are on the live map, which shows today's weather.

Trees, parasols and awnings are not in the model, and we don't know exactly where on the pavement the tables stand. Treat the times as an educated guess, often accurate to within ten minutes.
