Getting a bit weary of Christmas grub..




..we decided to head for Visby last night and the Bolaget Restaurant on the main square of the medival town.

 The Bolaget is as close to a Paris bistro you can get in this part of th world, and it opened three years ago (after a careful renovation) in the old location of a former govermental liquor store on the town´s main square. 


They play French chansons and particularly Piaf! (In the lavatory a soft voice is reading french stories on a loudspeaker!)
 
 Local Gotland specialities are served á la saison..
 
The menu is excellent and prices are fair..

 The atmosphere is cosy and the wine list elaborate..

 
Outside the windows the Santa Carin´s ruin is illuminated at night, emphasizing the medieval ambiance.
 
 The main square at night still retains its Christmas atmosphere..
 
The Bolaget trattoria. 

 
In comparison: Another side of Visby in its wildest summer mood..
