Alexander Skarsgard's Cafe Gitane Afternoon

Taking a break from his busy schedule, Alexander Skarsgard was spotted having lunch in New York City this afternoon (September 15).

The “True Blood” actor hit up the trendy Cafe Gitane in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, sporting a grey shirt with distressed jeans.

And though he spends most of his time in the US these days, Skarsgard told press he likes to keep his native Sweden close to his heart.

"I usually throw a glug (Swedish mulled wine) party right before Christmas. And then midsummer is a very big deal in Sweden. It's our Fourth of July almost. I usually throw a midsummer party in June in LA.”
