Two Michelin Stars, innovative Nordic cuisine, seasonal ingredients
"Holding Two MICHELIN Stars and a Green Star, Kontrast in Oslo is led by chef Mikael Svensson and is known for innovative, storytelling dishes that spotlight produce from small-scale farmers and push the boundaries of contemporary Nordic cooking." - Ianthe Butt
"‘Kontrast’ is not just a name at this sleek, fittingly stark restaurant in the city’s former industrial district; the concept informs everything they do, from the make-up of the international team to the smart combinations of ingredients in the dishes. A rich stew of superb langoustine claw meat, for example, is balanced by the fresh crunch and perfectly judged acidity of pickled carrot. While the dining area benefits from a softly lit intimacy, the open kitchen is brighter so that your eye is drawn to the supremely talented chefs." - Michelin Inspector
"Now holding Two Michelin Stars after over a decade in operation, this Oslo restaurant puts sustainability at the forefront, using state-of-the-art preserving techniques to reduce waste and create garums, vinegars and more, while technical skill makes every dish soar." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
"A one-starred restaurant whose chef, Mikael Svensson, publicly argued that a relocating three-star restaurant should retain its stars because its core team is largely the same, reflecting the perspective of at least some peers in the Nordic dining community." - Jaya Saxena
