The restaurant was honored with “BIB Gourmand” by the Michelin guide this year – congratulations! I read a lot about it in Nöjesguiden and Göteborgsposten and it seems to be a good choice. Even if the photos […]

One of the blogs I follow, La Tartine Gourmande, had a story about cranberries in october. It´s amazing to see these photos of the harvest. In Norway we don´t have these berries, and I was particularly amazed about the way they flooded the bog.

Next to Lørenparken is Kanonhallen, which is Oslo´s new culture scene. The house restaurant is called Kanon Bistro – and it´s worth a visit. I had lunch there on Saturday, which was nice traditional Norwegian beef soup with vegetables. The bistro is a nice place to take a coffee after a stroll in the park. […]
