Address : Paleet, Karl Johans Gate 41B, tel. 22/42-47-83.

Kaffistova

Norwegian country cooking is served, cafeteria style, at this downtown restaurant. Everyday specials include soup and selection entrées, including a vegetarian dish. Kjøttkaker (meat cakes rather like Salisbury steak) served with creamed cabbage is a norwegian staple, and the steamed salmon with Sandefjord butter is as good here as in plances where it costs three times as much. Low alcohol beer is the strongest drink served. Address : Rosenkrantz’ Gate 8, tel. 22/42-95-30.
