Gamle Raadhus Restaurant

Gamle Raadhus Restaurant
The original City Hall 1641 for Christiania, the old name for Oslo
The oldest building in Oslo

Opens at 5pm

We were walking around the Fortress just behind it, kinda waited for it to open. Day had turned dark and icy roads did not make it easy to walk about. 

We had no reservations but was welcomed in for dinner. Service was polite. They had a dinner party going on in the next room later on so my guess that this restaurant is famous among what I assumed was the elite. 

Menu was not of a huge variety. It was a short list and price was steep. Well… since we are already here… might as well try good old Norwegian cuisine. 






Butter

Bread was freshly cut and crispy on the outside, soft in the inside. We had 2 helpings. Lovely bread!


Had Riesling dessert wine, 97kr per glass

Pan fried Cod


Veal


Mussels

Restaurant’s taxi app was not in order. They were kind enough to book a taxi for us. We got a kind funny old driver who was a fan of Bob Dylan! Had a nice chat about the Northern Lights and art back to the hotel. Taxi driver did mention that we just ate in an old traditional restaurant in Oslo.
