While out walking pick up a heartshaped fishcake or a cup of homemade fishsoup from the local traditional producer Madam Bergen. If you feel like sitting down we recommend trying plukkfisk.

Our favourite, Don Pippo. With great ambience, deliciously composed sandwhiches, and their knowledge of wine, this is a safe bet from morning throughout the evening. Sunday is pancake day too!
