Sensommar i Helsingborg

Harvest season is here in full volume! 🍎🎪 This Sunday, 27 September, Fredriksdal opens its grounds for Mikaeli marknad – Helsingborg's big harvest festival, and one of the best days of the year to get lost in a crowd. 🧺 Around 80 stallholders: food crafts, locally grown flowers, ceramics, jewellery and the season's fruit and veg 🔥 Something hot off the grill, something sweet, something to take home 🧶 Try your hand at old crafts – card and spin wool, bind brushes, print postcards 🐄 A playful family exhibition about the heritage farm animals that have shared people's everyday lives for centuries 🎠 New this year: a small fairground for kids with hand-cranked carousels and old-fashioned market games. Add horse and cart rides, circus, dancing, a vintage bus, working printing presses, and a giant pile of straw to jump into. Bring an appetite and comfortable shoes. 📍 Fredriksdal Museums and Gardens, Gisela Trapps väg 1 🗓 Sunday 27 September, 10am–5pm 🎟 175 SEK. Free for children and young people up to 18 (under 16 with an adult).

🍁🍷 "People come here the way they'd come to their own living room. A boy who knocked on the bakery door at five, asking for cinnamon buns, had his graduation party here in June." says Anna Borgskog at Château Forêt Warm room, low light, three people running the whole thing. Château Forêt sits on Södra Storgatan, and the menu is short and changes with what's available: European cooking that starts with Skåne's own growers and farmers. Vegetables carry the plates, and when there's meat, the whole animal gets used. Dinner Tuesday to Friday, plus Saturdays that turn into something of their own: asparagus dinners, national day lunch, Oktoberfest. What began as a sourdough bakery and café in 2008, opened by three brothers. In 2013 they kept the lights on into the evening, and it became a restaurant. Look up while you eat! The walls hold 1930s murals by Helsingborg artist Hugo Gehlin, painted when this was one of the city's Helma beer halls, opened in 1930. "Merchants of every kind find great pleasure here." They're being restored right now with help from a crowdfunding. With the continent this close, people do travel for a table here – most of all in spring and autumn. 🍁🍷 📍 Södra Storgatan 19, Helsingborg @chateauforet
