The northernmost Indian restaurant in the world is an upmarket experience, with a choice
of sublime dishes (a favourite: tandoori salmon). One of its finest features, though, is its
lack of pretension - the atmosphere is relaxed and the service warm.

Top 'New Nordic' cuisine is the major drawcard at this elegant yet simple bistro. The fo-

owners are friends with the famous Noma clan, and have drawn much inspiration from the
celebrated Copenhagen restaurant. Popular with locals and visitors alike, a reservation is a
must.
