About this store
Rot is an independent food shop in SoFo, and the first thing you notice inside is the shelving: oak and solid wood, worn to a patina over the years. It reads like an old country store dropped onto Renstiernas gata.
The produce is the reason to come. Fruit and vegetables are laid out so that a quick errand turns into planning dinner, and the ecological and biodynamic lines sit alongside them, with local and seasonal items mixed in. Bread and cheese are the other Swedish staples worth picking up, and the shelves carry jars for making your own jam.
For a fast meal, the prepared foods are the move: ready-made dishes to take home or eat as lunch, no cooking involved. The shop is small but the assortment runs wide, so you can assemble a whole meal from the produce, the bread and a prepared dish without leaving the room.
Prices are good for what you get, and the shop takes cash.
