    This low-lit dining room is probably the best in town. Featured is fresh-caught Great Slave Lake fish, including pan-fried whitefish topped with scallops and shrimp ($18).

  5. Sub on the Hub

    Dispensing pizza and burgers from a take-out window in the recreation complex downtown, this place doesn't so much cook as heat things up.

    The Northern Life Museum is the North's best small-town museum, with intriguing displays on local history and culture, plus the corpse of Canus, a whooping crane sire whose sexual efforts helped save his species from extinction.
