At 11:30am, a celebration of Sveriges nationaldag (Sweden’s National Day) featuring an outdoor herring and cheese buffet and Swedish songs by Martin Bertilsson. At 1pm, the first Smörgåsbord of the season, with — and this is a partial list — rosemary and lemon herring, pickled herring, eggs topped with mayonnaise and Greenland shrimp, boiled new potatoes, citrus gravad lax (lemon and orange marinated salmon) served with mustard sauce and cucumber salad, and rökt lax och melon sallad (smoked salmon and melon salad.)
