One of Oslo's best dining experiences is also its most relaxed. A large dining room filled with old social-club chairs and painted in tones of deep, earthy green, draws city workers, visitors and natural-wine-obsessed locals in equal measure. Outstandingly prepared and presented, the small-plates concept makes it easy to sample across the appealing New Nordic menu.
Dishes are mostly riffs on Norwegian standards, and use Norwegian produce, but also work in international influences in subtle and surprising ways. Combinations may be bold but there's a lightness and prettiness to it all. The wine list is one of the city's most interesting and the friendly, knowledgeable staff are happy to walk you through it.
