Papa Hungry – Food Adventures

What happens when you combine South American heritage, Gamlestaden and creative expression?

Answer: You get Mariki

Brought to life by husband and wife dynamic duo Nico and Jonna.

Nico with culinary experience from Pujol, Carbon and Tizne to name a few.

Jonna a natural, creating all the ceramics used in house(cups, plates etc) and it doesn’t stop there. With coffee knowledge and skills gained from some of the very best cafés and coffee spots in Gothenburg.

Whether you’re in the mood for the best empanada you’ll probably ever eat or a solid fika, doesn’t matter. Mariki’s got you covered and it’s seriously gooooood.

Episode with Nico spoken in English.

Rumour has it, Jonna also has an episode coming soon 🤫

Albin and William, the gents from Mela joining forepisode #10 of Papa Hungry.

Some of the best pizzas in Gothenburg are found in Gårda.

What’s the secret? Maybe it’s Nonna’s tomato sauce!?🍅🤫

We talk pineapple pizza, we talk pancetta on desserts, we talk Italia.

The episode is in Swedish. In earlier episodes we've had English captions, but I didn't like the look. I'll find a more suitable solution for upcoming episodes. Until then.

I hope you're hungry!

Episode #9 of Papa Hungry with Hannes Granström.

Rocking the bar at Bar Bruno. One of my absolute favorite bars around! From atmosphere to drink quality. Top tier.

Hannes could quite possibly be one of the most allround skilled bartenders Gothenburg, maybe even Sweden has to offer at the moment. A true gem!

Highly skilled at classics, solid own creations and he matches it with detailed and warm hospitality.

I swung by Bar Bruno awhile ago and we talked some sh*t.

This episode is in Swedish without subtitles. Within a couple of days I'll start my Youtube-channel and from there you can listen to the episodes with English or other language subtitles.

Let's Rock N Roll,

Episode #7 of Papa Hungry

The god of butter himself is joining for this episode.

Patrik ''The Butter Viking'' Johansson

Deep in the pleasantly green and dense forests of Småland, Sweden you'll discover the town maybe even village of Kosta.

This is also where you'll find quite possibly the most skilled butter maker in all of the lands (the world).

Papa drove 7.5 hours to go and speak to Mr. Butter Viking.

Having served and worked with the likes of culinary royalty such as René Redzepi (Noma), Alain Ducasse, Claude Bosi the list goes on and on and on. I'd say he knows a thing or two.

Be prepared for an all out deep dive into the world of butter and banter. It's gonna be a good one!

Hope you're hungry!

Episode #6 of Papa Hungry with

Peterparkergbg aka Peter Johnsson

If you’re a boring or sensitive person.

Then this episode will probably offend you.

If that's not you, then you'll probably enjoy this one.

Expect personality.

Peter has 20+ years of experience behind the bar and it's safe to say he knows his stuff when it comes to mixing drinks.

I don't think I know of anyone in Gothenburg who balances cocktails better than Peter. 100% worth the visit!

Having worked at some of Gothenburg's favorite spots. You nowadays find him at View Skybar & Restaurant in Hotel Riverton.

I've saved a seat at the table for you, have listen while we chop it up!

Papa’s meeting Chef David Vidal aka Vidal31 in the premiere episode of Papa Hungry.

You’ll recognise him from Instagram with a dedicated following of 460k sweet toothed individuals.

His dessert platings are sexier than most supermodels are beautiful.

Practicing what he preaches he spends his time as a Head chef at Laholmen (Sweden) and has classes all over the world where he teaches all things dessert.

An influencer who isn’t an influencer. He’s a chef!

Learn how a PlayStation can be the start of a culinary career.

Expect an episode talking about the dos and don'ts in the kitchen. Honesty and fundamentals of developing within anything you’re looking to improve within. 

David says a lot of powerful words in the episode. Pay close attention. It’s easy to miss.

Papa recommends getting the pen and paper out.

Hope you're hungry!
