At last, a source for good lutefisk. I know some of you are saying is there any such thing as good lutefisk? Check these folks out and learn the truth, and it shall set you free.

Lots of stuff to try, if I ever get out to the west coast, and the prices look pretty reasonable, too. A quick scan of their menu and I'm amazed there's any Havarti left for the rest of us. I won't wax too eloquent, because them Danes already got the big heads, don't you know. At least the ones I know.
