25. April 2015: Restaurant Alex Sushi
Not too long after an extensive lunch it was time for a small dinner. The selection of various dishes is quite extensive which does not make it easy to pick a course.

The “reindeerburgers with lingonberries and a creamy gamesauce” (198 NOK) were not really burgers as I had expected them but more […]
