My favourite place to eat and drink is down the street! Book your table on their website or just show up at the bar and hope for free seating. We usually order a big variety of dishes and share everything. Ask your waiter to serve you half a glass of whatever he or she recommends with every ordered dish. That way you'll get to sample a nice selection of wine that goes well with every dish.

Get some fresh air!

Take the boat through the fjord of Oslo to get to this little island. I love spending a few hours here on a sunny summer's day. You can grab a bite to eat at Gressholmen Kro og pick up one of their sandwiches or some shrimps to enjoy at the beach!

The top of Vettakollen has one of the nicest views of the city of Oslo. I recommend taking the metro to Sognsvann and make it a loop. You'll pass Båntjern both on your way to and from Vettakollen, it's a beautiful lake that's perfect to take a dip in on a warm day.
