Vente 1,5 time på mat skjer bare ikke 🙄 Så takk for at vi i det minste fikk beskjed om dette før vi bestilte.

The view is amazing at this traditional and venerable old hangout for hikers and skiers. No snow yet, but good food and wine. Will definitely be back, also in winter, as it's a perfect start to explore the slopes (cross country and slalom).

We were told to sit in the bar, as there was no available tables outside. We ordered to pizzas that were tasting good, however the guy in the bar was not interested at his work at all. For example we received cutlery from the waiter, but no plates (ordered 3 pizzas for 6 people). I had to pick them up myself while young waiter was just sitting and scrolling his phone.
