The Scandinavian café is a great place for lunch and you can not beat their beautiful French style breads and fillings and huge selection of pastries. It has a two level eating area that is air-conditioned and a small outdoor section if you like to swelter. Very efficient you fill in the menu order form yourself, ticking off what type of bread and so on, hand it in and the waitress brings it to you when ready. There is also a TV normally tuned into an International news program so you can catch up on the outside world or if you can read one of the Scandinavian languages you can browse the relatively out of date newspapers from that part of the world.
