. The highly regarded Arctic Menu
restaurant of Meyergården Hotell gets its meat, dairy products and even honey from local
sources. Save a corner for its signature caramel pudding with whipped cream. If you aren't
in the mood for a full meal, indulge in its dish of the day (around Nkr150).

Abelone is your best dining option outside the hotels. It looks unprepossess-
ing from the street but inside the cosy simulated log cabin makes for a congenial dining
environment. Opt for one of its quality meat dishes.

Large and set back in a ped-
estrianised square, Babette's, a popular pizza, grills and kebab place, is essentially three
venues in one with something for everybody. There's a long bar, a cafe with a large, open
terrace and a more formal restaurant area.
Bimbo Veikro
CAFE-RESTAURANT €
( 75 15 10 01; Saltfjelletveien 34; mains Nkr68-125)
Just 2km north of town beside
the E6, this roadhouse, popular with locals, serves up the usual sandwiches, pizzas and
grills. 'Bimbo' alludes to a nearby elephant-shaped rock formation, not the classy wait-
resses. It also has a few rooms (singles/doubles Nkr620/850).

same premises as Big Horn Steakhouse, its narrow door is easy to miss. Not so for locals
in the know, who congregate here to drink, chat and, if the mood takes them, dance.
