I went here for a business dinner with the mayor with 20 or so other people. The overall experience…read morewas quite delightful. The bread was fantastic; I had to give the waitress/waiter (we had both and it happened multiple times) doe-y eyes to get more bread. We started off the meal with swedish version of hashbrowns (or latkes). This was after a long discussion as per how every meal in sweden has come with bleak roe. And surprise, surprise along with the sour cream was a spoon full of more orange than normal bleak (the type of fish, not the depressing adjective) roe. But quite good, and I finished my plate. Afterwards was the main meal of moose (not the creamy kind, the elk/carabou kind), mashed potatoes, and lingonberry. I did not finish it but I tried. Quite amazing. Finishing the meal was a truely delicious rhubarb crumble, reminding one of an apple pie with vanilla creme. It had a delightful bitterness. I completed the entire thing, and I usually detest deserts. But my favorite part of the meal was definitely the surprise note and salts in the bathroom. The secret of Gefle, which I tried to decribe to people at the table, but given I speak no Swedish, I didn't do very well. They kept telling me Gavle was spelled differently. So I sent them in to translate. A great experience overall. Thank you.

We are back again in Gavle and so we headed for Sarah's again for a quick dinner before a Brynas…read morehockey game. Anna greeted us and served us as warmly and efficiently as you could ever expect. The Elk stew with mashed potatoes was a sure hit - rich in flavor and texture in a thin gravy sauce. We also retuned the following day for lunch and had a delicious dish of "Sunday" beef and potato salad with a unique side green leaf lettuce salad served in a lidded mason jar. Definitely our favorite restaurant in Gavle.
