Malmoes most known farmers market, only 5 minutes walk from our home. Cash only, very cheap around 15.00 before closing.Every day except sundays. Go shopping at the market or in the many small shops from all over the world in the streets around the square. You can also find many fast food restaurant around the square like indian, arabic, iranian, syrian, swedish, turkish and so on. Maybe just take a coffee in one of the several cafés and just watch people, or sit down at one of several restaurants facing the square with their big outside seating areas.

Super cute tiny restaurant without menu. The menu is what it is from day to day, from what is in season, in stock, or in trend right now. Great food and service, and don't be fooled if it looks full from the outside, the "real" dining room is in the basement.

In the food court at the mini mall of "Mitt Möllan" you can find the best sandwiches in town, maybe in the whole of Sweden. Amazing is the word you are looking for. Super for lunch, but come early, the lines tend to get long during lunch hour, and when they are out of stock, they close. Opens at 11 - don't come later than 12! (In the food court you can also find other gems like Pizza dal Sud - perfect pizza Napoletana, or if you like Vietnamese or Indian food there are good places as well)

The best lunch in town? Well known hotspot, but mostly for the dedicated foodies since it is by the docks, t.i. a bit of a walk from the city centre. Well worth the walk though! Plus great atmosphere, and you are welcome to sit outside by the water if you prefer that. ONLY OPEN ON WEEKDAYS!!

Tallest building in Scandinavia with a nice walk by the sea. The whole area was initially part of the architectural exhibit Bo01 in 2001 and is built sustainable and ecofriendly, as well as super stylish and fun architecture. Take a walk in the area, it's the place where many come to stroll, bathe, or to watch people and be seen. Beautiful boardwalk.
