Namu
About
Namu is a vibrant Korean‑Swedish fusion restaurant tucked into the historic Gamla Saluhallen, just steps from the charming Lilla torg in central Malmö. Chef Jennie Walldén, a Swedish MasterChef winner, blends Nordic ingredients with authentic Korean techniques to create a menu that evolves with the seasons and showcases the best of both worlds. The dining room offers a relaxed atmosphere with low wooden tables on the floor or comfortable table service, letting guests experience the contrast of traditional Korean and contemporary Swedish cuisine. On the menu, guests can explore a tasting experience featuring a signature flank steak paired with a creative array of side dishes, or sample shared entrees that highlight the small‑plated, banchan tradition of Korean meals. During the holiday season, special “Seoul” and “Busan” dinner‑menus are added to the regular evening selection. For those looking to pre‑order, the restaurant also offers gift cards of any amount. In addition to the restaurant, the adjacent Gaji cocktail bar (located on Engelbrektsgatan 2) brings a lively, late‑night vibe with a menu of Korean‑style cocktails and open from Wed‑Thu 17:00‑late and Fri‑Sat 16:00‑late. Namu’s popularity has earned it a mention in the Michelin Guide, underscoring the quality and creativity of its culinary offerings.
