Örtagården,
upstairs from the Saluhall, is primarily a vegetarian restaur-
ant and serves a 99-kr buffet weekdays until 17:00 and a larger 129-kr buffet
evenings and weekends (Mon-Fri 10:30-22:00, Sat-Sun 11:00-21:00, entrance
on side of market building at Nybrogatan 31, tel. 08/662-1728).
Riche
, a Parisian-style brasserie just a few steps off Nybroplan at
Östermalm's waterfront, serves up pricey but elegantly executed Swedish and
international dishes. The seating is tight—either in the winter garden, the
bright dining room, or the white-tile-and-wine-glass-chandeliered bar—and
it's a high-energy environment (125-225-kr starters, 200-300-kr main dishes,
Mon-Fri 7:30-24:00, Sat-Sun 12:00-24:00, Birger Jarlsgatan 4, tel. 08/
5450-3560).
Unless you have a railpass, long-distance buses are cheaper than trains, such
as from Stockholm to Oslo or Kalmar. Buses usually take longer, but have
more predictable pricing, shorter ticket lines, and student discounts. Swebus
is the largest operator (tel. 0771-21-8218,
