This is a very popular spot in Oslo. It has great American food as well as the best English breakfast you will find in all of Oslo. Is a bit on the pricier side, and if it is a nice day you will probably have to stand in line outside.

This restaurant probably serves one of Oslo's best tapas. It's situated in "Grünerløkka", quite close to the river "Akerselva". They also got a restaurant at Aker Brygge, downtown. Would recommend tasting a variety of their tapas, sit out in the sun for a glass prosecco and enjoy the nice candle-lit atmosphere by night.

Fresh bread everyday, nice salads, toasts and sandwiches. They have a lovely coffee, they roast it themselves, both for a nice cup of coffee there and bags of coffee for purchase. Would recommend either the Classic or the Spanish sandwich on the "spelt bread". Very close to the flat, only a 2 minutes walk away.

Drinks & Nightlife
This is an exentric place with a lot of color. They play mostly good music, but the real special thing about this place is the karaoke rooms in the back. But this place is nice to visit on week days as vel. They have live music and sometimes show movies. The bar is close by the river and so it is actually quit nice to go here by day time as vel and enjoy the spot.

This is a greatly known place to visit and it is absolutely something that very tourist in Oslo should do, however, it is greatly under valued what's inside. Oslo has some amazing opera singers and magnificent Ballett dancer. I did not know that I would enjoy Ballett before I went, and it is actually really cheep to see a show. If you want a nice evening out with a loved one this is absolutely the way to go!

The museum of natural history is actually one of the older ones in Oslo, it is currently under reconstruction, however a big part is still open. It's ok priced and even though it is not as magnificent as the one in New York it actually has some really interesting things to show. I quite like the dinosaur secleton they have as well as the astronomy part.

(For Norwegions only, because it's performed in Norwegion) Dette er et improvisasjonstheater med meget talentfulle utøvere. Anbefaler dette stedet på det absolutt varmeste. Du burde gå dit tidlig før showet da det nesten alltid er fullt. Min favoritt er musikalaften. Da lager de en musikal på stående fot, veldig humoristisk og veldig vanskelig å forklare. Dette er noe du må se!

Modern and new, this museum is at the end of probably Oslo`s most expensive spot. I would not recommend akerbrygge because of its price, however, I will recommend this museum.

It's easy to get to centrum using the tran from the shopping center. This is also a shopping mall. It does not have a lot of store, but it's the closest Vinemonopoly to my apartment. So if you want to buy some vine, Champagne or liquor this is the spot.
