Urshults Bagarn 20 km  www.urshultsbagarn.se
The region's absolute best bread can be found at the local Urshult bakar. We especially recommend their fresh "grahams", freshly baked syrup bread and pear biscuits. (Some parts of the assortment are also sold, for example, at the ICA stores). In 2017, the company received the award for this year's company in the bakery industry. The bakery was founded as early as 1903 and thus has very old ancestry. The bakery has chosen both the craft and the old traditions, but modern findings and methods have been given room in the production. The factory shop is well hidden on a back street (Kanalgatan) in Urshult and thus unfortunately a little difficult to find. Therefore, a good idea is to first check the map on the website or facebook before the visit. Unfortunately, you can not snack on the spot but only buy to take home. Opening hours are economical, weekdays 8-13 and Saturdays 8-11.

If you are looking for a unique tasting experience in a fantastic cozy atmosphere you should head to Sävsjöström a few miles outside Växjö for a visit to Micke's restaurant. A little bit to drive, but in our opinion well worth a visit. Micke's is an idyllically located small restaurant with alpine cottage feel and its own meat processing in the middle of the Småland forest. Here is a selection of their award-winning air-dried delicacies from their own production and solid hot dishes with a great focus on game & beef from the region. The menu varies depending on the meat available. For dessert you can choose among other things a real Apfelstrudel. Micke is an open and pleasant entrepreneur who likes to tell about his hectic time as a chef in Vienna and Paris but who instead chose to seek the tranquility of the Småland forest. Opening hours are Friday & Saturday 3 pm late. Other days pre-booking is required.
