This was my first meal of this trip and, if this was a sign of how the trip would go, I knew it was going to be great! This restaurant was excellent!
It's right across a plaza with inside and outside seating. The inside looks almost like a little market, with a few high tables, and all the windows below the counter with fresh fish, vegetables, drinks, and more. The outside has the vibe of a French Café, where you seat to enjoy your drink and people watch. We chose outside. It was a cold night and they had heat lamps to keep us warm.
We started with a couple of local beers they had on tap and while they brought those our we studied the menu (they have English version). They specialize in seafood, so if you are not a fan or allergic, stay away, otherwise make sure you bookmark them and make a point to go there when in Oslo. As soon as I saw the mussels on the menu I knew I had to have them. They didn't take long to bring my dish out and I was salivating with the smell and the look of it. You could tell the mussels were fresh, all perfectly opened when steamed and in a delicious creamy and flavorful sauce. On the side were the fries that we just heavenly when dunk in that sauce. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish was just perfection! I wish I could have it again right now.
The fish soup was equally outstanding, served with toasted bread to dunk on the broth, and filled with mussels, salmon, fish, and more.
Service was fast, friendly and prices were reasonable. Fresh food and exquisite flavors, made this one of my favorite finds of the trip.
