French galette with a Norwegian twist: Restaurant Crêperie & Logi Åre (11. May 2019)
If you are arriving from Trondheim to Järpen where the Fäviken Magasinet is located, make sure that you either bring food or plan well enough so your timing is on point with regards to a short food break. On my way there, I decided to stop in Åre as this was kind of the largest ‘city’ in the area. However, as it is off-season there weren’t many places open. The Crêperie & Logi Åre was open though and was serving galettes. Admittedly, I didn’t do all that so I can have some French food in the middle of Sweden but when you’re hungry, you eat what there is.
To not fall entirely for the French food I decided to go for a Norwegian version of the galette. The “Galettes renskav (sauteed reindeer, lingonberries, arugula, horseradish creme, red onion, pickled cucumber and Emmental cheese)” (198 SEK) was exactly that. Frankly, you didn’t taste much of the reindeer but the lingonberries gave it the typical Scandinavian note, I’d say and the galette was overall good.
The place is simple yet atmospheric and the service is not only attentive but also friendly and jovial. All in all, if you are passing Åre on your way to Järpen, the Crêperie & Logi is definitely a place where you can do a short stop to get some energy in.

I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org.
