Oslo Travel Guide

Oslo is often overshadowed by the natural landscape of more rural parts of the country, and the other largest cities of the country like Bergen and Trondheim tend to be more "typical" Norwegian. Nevertheless, Oslo has plenty of sights, good nightlife and is worth seeing.

Bagatelle

Though seasons come and go, this longtime favorite is still the best restaurant in Oslo. For years we have been won over by the light, modern cuisine, using market-fresh ingredients, that comes from the imaginative mind of that culinary whiz, Eyvind Hellstrom. The quality of service ensures that there are no distractions from the serious business of enjoying the food. Wonderfully aromatic seafood is the star of the menu, including the catch of the day, which the chefs often smoke to perfection. Our divine sole arrived steamed in seaweed, giving a tangy aroma of the sea. A voluptuous steamed halibut reached celestial levels when it was accompanied by a caviar cream sauce. Meat eaters are catered to with such offerings as a saddle of reindeer graced with fresh pears and a tangy pepper sauce. Richly flavored was the slow-cooked veal with a sage so fresh you’d think it was just plucked from the bush. The chef’s finely honed classic technique is showcased in a delectable herb-roasted Norwegian rack of lamb.
