Hi everyone! I'm going to be in Gothenburg in July and I'm looking for the best place that serves Swedish Kottbullar. Any recommendations?

Best is very much a matter of opinion. But a few suggestions are:
- Bamba, Bruksgatan 17 & Repslagaregatan 7
- Berzelius bar & matsal, Södra Vägen 20
- Köttbullekällaren, Kungstorget 3
- Stures Brasseri, Sten Sturegatan 25
- Kometen, Vasagatan 58
And what I assume you're looking for is köttbullar (meat balls), kottbullar means conifer cone balls which sounds less appetizing in my opinion…

Thank you so much for the info. We are staying close to Berzelius bar & matsal so I'm considering that one. Have you been there youself?

Unfortunately not, but I've heard good things about it. And I almost had dinner there last time I was in Gothenburg. But it was full and we didn't have time to wait. And apart from köttbullar, they also have raggmunk on the menu if you want to try more Swedish food.

Oh yes. Raggmunk is like Latkes / potato pancakes but more doughy, right?

Yes, raggmunk is potato pancakes, traditionally served with pork and lingonberries. Although I'm not sure where they land on a doughiness scale.
