EDITOR ’ S NOTE
Ithink back to the time when Iwas akid and we would go out to eat for special occasions or for arare treat . Today , dining out regularly is as much acultural
AMELIA DUGGAN Editor , ( 201 ) Dining
as it is culinary experience . We love to eat out and we love to eat great food from every corner of the world . It is no surprise that the Bergen restaurant scene is robust with variation – so many flavors and styles of cooking that you can never sample all of them .
One night it could be tapas and tagines . Another could be sushi and sashimi . Maybe it ’ s a juicy burger infused with cheddar cheese and topped with crispy onion strings . Or , it might be a coffee and a luscious French pastry . Casual or continental , a crowded bar or acozy booth in a candlelit dining room , there is always a special place to sit down and enjoy a bite .
Bergen ’ s downtowns boast a seemingly endless variety of bistros , burger joints and boulangeries all ready to invite you in to enjoy . Many restaurants are well known for the extensive wine lists . Budding sommeliers will have no difficulty pairing a fine wine with a favorite meal . There are also dozens of bring-your-own restaurants that allow you to supply your favorite bottle to complement a signature dish .
( 201 ) keeps readers in the know about the Bergen dining scene with a restaurant review and informative listings that are published monthly in the magazine . Keep this guide handy because it ’ s a terrific reference for where to go to get the best ofBergen . ■
