Just discovered this intersting eating place way down south in Hollywood. Their schtick is that they import their Danish dough from Danmark. They don't have a huge menu, but if the photos are accurate it looks like some pretty tasty stuff. Another home state place to check out one day.

Unique ambience. Web site pics made me think of a DJ or a team of mad scientists. Another place shooting for that Noma vibe perhaps, but still would love to go there someday.

Lutherans know how to make fun of themselves, and there are some cool items here, too. Though not strictly a Scandinavian site, you know and I know that when most folks think of Lutherans, they think of us. Pastor Ken Schaub, an old Lutheran himself, sent
us this link. I can say that because I'm an old Lutheran, too."

This little shop run by Swedes has been in business a long time, since 1947. Started by a lady named Edythe Anderson, now run by Lennart Jonsson. In the same location as Cole Travel Services.
