authentic Mexican taqueria! It is brave to open a taco place on a taco Friday
(it is a thing in Norway), but at Casa Salsitas you can get tacos as it is made
and eaten in Mexico. This means handmade corn tortillas, meat or vegetarian
fillings and good salsa on top. The place is quite small and there is only room
for a few people at the time so it is mostly based on takeaway in boxes of 3 or
5 tacos.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3n-ePIy7EXDYk4dzpZGl3W03lNu20AXicfnkMVsb_KjVeGyxbXmsf7Tgvn61etAhlUxxcOfSKZ96_60eee2OKDaE6IKjS-RdZw0fqgo092m_NskeF-hmvEM0RkM5gXHjqA8KFT5NaFoIm/s3648/IMG_20210506_170826.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3648" data-original-width="2736" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3n-ePIy7EXDYk4dzpZGl3W03lNu20AXicfnkMVsb_KjVeGyxbXmsf7Tgvn61etAhlUxxcOfSKZ96_60eee2OKDaE6IKjS-RdZw0fqgo092m_NskeF-hmvEM0RkM5gXHjqA8KFT5NaFoIm/s320/IMG_20210506_170826.jpg" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGO5rta49JkC6XQsQOsArl_zaq_UuIbGWb2XacTN05txgtScZHiejGgEW7SNG5IMIzhP90CPvQ3Lh7kvil202g-LR6bX9QMaaUm8DLuNRhGpKWrZhELxu6BS6twdKkl7GSObTLafSjlWbB/s3648/IMG_20210506_171820.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3648" data-original-width="2736" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGO5rta49JkC6XQsQOsArl_zaq_UuIbGWb2XacTN05txgtScZHiejGgEW7SNG5IMIzhP90CPvQ3Lh7kvil202g-LR6bX9QMaaUm8DLuNRhGpKWrZhELxu6BS6twdKkl7GSObTLafSjlWbB/s320/IMG_20210506_171820.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p>Patricia also runs <a href="https://salsitas.no/" target="_blank">Salsitas</a>, which makes salsa based on tomatillos

slogan for the place is "Natural food - natural wine" and unfortunately,
we were not allowed to enjoy wine this day due to covid-19 restrictions. We

cucumber granite before we got grilled lamb shank and rounded off with yogurt
with granola and rhubarb. I thought this was very, very good and we will
definitely go back to experience the food along with natural wine. I want to
compare ANGR with <a href="https://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2021/03/restaurant-sol-still-rocks.html" target="_blank">Restaurant SØL</a> and as you may have read, we have had some
fantastic experiences there. Good job ANGR!

at <a href="https://www.nbsorensen.no/annen-etage/om-annen-etage/" target="_blank">Restaurant Annen Etage</a> and it was to visit it for the first time (<a href="https://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2007/05/lovely-evening-at-nb-srensen.html" target="_blank">way backin 2007</a>) for a "fine dining" dinner. Over the years it looks like the
restaurant has struggled a bit to find its place on the Stavanger restaurant
scene but last year it was refurbished and now we finally got to visit the
restaurant again. Before, the interior was old school and inspired by the fact
that it is an old sea house. But now after the renovation, it has become warm
with stylish green interiors and great lighting - and if you get a window
table, you also get a great view of Stavanger harbor.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzmzjJ37ZmQ-t1AH5uvXeFqXLF23QCHXJhruer-8RSW9F1Hee0yj7bg0RLuzi4o62wgsuBFlxKSvq_6JNMSQa9uaDtwJMtlqhRhx_E9xZlplUKxGCz6WUnPxAbJE9XGqYsdfLDvbw_QLVq/s3648/IMG_20210522_191527.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzmzjJ37ZmQ-t1AH5uvXeFqXLF23QCHXJhruer-8RSW9F1Hee0yj7bg0RLuzi4o62wgsuBFlxKSvq_6JNMSQa9uaDtwJMtlqhRhx_E9xZlplUKxGCz6WUnPxAbJE9XGqYsdfLDvbw_QLVq/s320/IMG_20210522_191527.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjEtdq0-nXfK_oomLQ5iHLUmdZmKTaoMazTemO2cDf-9aDPbz4ulbVJUYXqXCQ5b7QNs5wGLhnUbbsvXyPdQPVFupbIaqFp5iVdoi2EjMr4V7x1egixDXETC46YydCScYuPMgGmupl2E09/s3648/IMG_20210522_200306.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjEtdq0-nXfK_oomLQ5iHLUmdZmKTaoMazTemO2cDf-9aDPbz4ulbVJUYXqXCQ5b7QNs5wGLhnUbbsvXyPdQPVFupbIaqFp5iVdoi2EjMr4V7x1egixDXETC46YydCScYuPMgGmupl2E09/s320/IMG_20210522_200306.jpg" width="320" /></a></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We decided on a 5-course menu this evening and soon we got a
little appetizer - a mussel croquette served on a tray of mussel shells. Inside
the croquette there was bechamel sauce and it was a lovely little snack. The
first proper dish was grilled salad (hjertesalat) on yogurt and topped with Fønix
(blue cheese from <a href="https://stavangerysteri.no/" target="_blank">Stavanger Ysteri</a>) and this was lovely and it would have been
nice with some bread to be able to get all that lovely juice from the plate. We
continued with a plate of spring greens with smoked cod roe and asparagus. As
you can see from the picture - a joy for the eye but also a joy for the palate. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Jg0fLU6AJABR89CUzoFk2ZqJ8wepS-j-9wz3a0lN4iDXay9-chuDTLaoTMk9TfgxznqHfVKL3mwdTEq36kPG0_PtaUaBrNCK9JSKVeTES_qa1cvpND2Vl0H4xBE4hij8kyJ0v1uYZcI2/s3648/IMG_20210522_203310.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Jg0fLU6AJABR89CUzoFk2ZqJ8wepS-j-9wz3a0lN4iDXay9-chuDTLaoTMk9TfgxznqHfVKL3mwdTEq36kPG0_PtaUaBrNCK9JSKVeTES_qa1cvpND2Vl0H4xBE4hij8kyJ0v1uYZcI2/s320/IMG_20210522_203310.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1eO6f-d9yucjbiyGaB74zaX2w0_RP1OAkxPq74vYl5SfIGULwX5N6kyUSwtIWuxVJo0qz1xxYddDqnD6EWcvj_IlyP9ptB1z4ZjMjJuXKEi-ZRz4Nzf86bR5_eKdGoiguq1yLJB1Bb6cc/s3648/IMG_20210522_205101.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1eO6f-d9yucjbiyGaB74zaX2w0_RP1OAkxPq74vYl5SfIGULwX5N6kyUSwtIWuxVJo0qz1xxYddDqnD6EWcvj_IlyP9ptB1z4ZjMjJuXKEi-ZRz4Nzf86bR5_eKdGoiguq1yLJB1Bb6cc/s320/IMG_20210522_205101.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">At this point we got some bread, and it was a delicious as it was a fresh campfire
style bread with good butter. There is usually some fish on the menu and the
next dish was a very good redfish (uer) served with tomatoes and kale and after
that we also got some local lamb. Before dessert we got a little palate cleanser
but I think I would rather call it dessert number 1 because it was a lovely buckthorn

This time we
are talking about a new burger place and they make “smash burger”. This means
taking the patty and flatting the meat while it is frying. Due to this the name
of the new place is <a href="https://www.facebook.com/smashinstavanger" target="_blank">Smashin’</a> of course. We stopped by this new place in
Østervåg on a weekday and it was quite empty – they have only been open for a
couple of days. There are a few tables, a hidden door is disguised as a bookshelf
and leads to the toilet. You order the food using Order on your cellphone and at
the moment they only offer burgers and wings. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVcnuGn4jq2v9G6sJycGQQhw85SCsnbmVC3F0SEZX0xSK7O8Eh-GtLPqpgw4822_z8wP8Rrw9mvzuRMS1nwXlUxHTCWTDnnjVSNqB8Qdr82jjWV-Hwm-VwhCS_twSI40J84jzbyS_97ynx/s2048/IMG_20210421_181820+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVcnuGn4jq2v9G6sJycGQQhw85SCsnbmVC3F0SEZX0xSK7O8Eh-GtLPqpgw4822_z8wP8Rrw9mvzuRMS1nwXlUxHTCWTDnnjVSNqB8Qdr82jjWV-Hwm-VwhCS_twSI40J84jzbyS_97ynx/s320/IMG_20210421_181820+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicasgKCrX2a5jyB-IxWqiA_RkYGlHHQYBNA4Hah8zc2TB17OFSefDKWpaIxwoM4fIv3TMgF-Lw_hG9NTIEKH0n7QDEdjUUSgp7XiRLIEOVsscA3ayDkTg6FXl_RRxU1B5cdQlplp0k3ALd/s2048/IMG_20210421_213630+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicasgKCrX2a5jyB-IxWqiA_RkYGlHHQYBNA4Hah8zc2TB17OFSefDKWpaIxwoM4fIv3TMgF-Lw_hG9NTIEKH0n7QDEdjUUSgp7XiRLIEOVsscA3ayDkTg6FXl_RRxU1B5cdQlplp0k3ALd/s320/IMG_20210421_213630+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>We decided to taste the Juicy
Lucy (a cheeseburger) and Maggis hot wings. The food came after a few minutes
and the burger came with a paper wrap which was great as it was juicy! The
burger looked great with well defines cheese slices, thick slices of onion and
tomato and of course the beef patty. And it was not just looks – it tasted
excellent as well! The wings were also great as they were fresh and juicy – and
with a great sticky, spicy glaze. This was awesome and I look forward to trying
some of the other burgers on the menu – and look forward to seeing some fries
and salad on the menu!</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Facts:</b><br />Homepage: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/smashinstavanger" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/smashinstavanger</a><br />Location: Østervåg 47 – <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/9b6wGYWneTHjhjxz6" target="_blank">see this Google map</a>.<br />Price: 189 kroner for Juicy Lucy - 23 USD</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTYUOXv6qLB6Yp9EJiiKFBDTqlCNf9wkW6EN_zTOS-6282bZOGvpJDMDhttOqPPI80kFqhVA58hTytQ-RYL4ZOZDsbDIZh57gaObtD7UhY7RWkvknWZt8uvROgdSGSy-2kVRC_tDfGAvvi/s2048/IMG_20210421_175818+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTYUOXv6qLB6Yp9EJiiKFBDTqlCNf9wkW6EN_zTOS-6282bZOGvpJDMDhttOqPPI80kFqhVA58hTytQ-RYL4ZOZDsbDIZh57gaObtD7UhY7RWkvknWZt8uvROgdSGSy-2kVRC_tDfGAvvi/s320/IMG_20210421_175818+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU4GvtFhSas6-wPYJg0yaHf_GSWoMloLhxPVm4djNACoS-R9qNENTE8AF_GC9gxPsixihSLfPHsjPVv7vLTvvU9EALcnnubQQalbhMv-0PUa4YQ5uk_3fl6lh0tWIhOOev0P8BYPWKuhnb/s2048/IMG_20210421_175844.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU4GvtFhSas6-wPYJg0yaHf_GSWoMloLhxPVm4djNACoS-R9qNENTE8AF_GC9gxPsixihSLfPHsjPVv7vLTvvU9EALcnnubQQalbhMv-0PUa4YQ5uk_3fl6lh0tWIhOOev0P8BYPWKuhnb/s320/IMG_20210421_175844.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>Gardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02597245960589722753noreply@blogger.com0Østervåg 47, 4006 Stavanger, Norway58.973109400000013 5.733767830.662875563821167 -29.4224822 87.283343236178865 40.8900178tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7316350420663665566.post-8935978654911794552021-03-08T21:03:00.001+01:002021-03-08T21:03:59.297+01:00Seafood at Fisketorget<p>We had a fantastic lunch at <a href="https://fisketorget-stavanger.no/" target="_blank">Fisketorget</a> last summer (see
<a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2020/07/lunch-outdoors-at-fisketorget.html" target="_blank">this review</a>) with amazing weather and a great outdoor view of the harbor of Stavanger.
The visit this time was quite different as we visited for dinner on a cold
March night. There was a bit of confusion regarding the booking but after
showing the confirmation e-mail that I had received, we were guided to the
table. It would be great if they could get a proper booking system in place!
The menu varies according to season, but the focus is on seafood – and the menu
this evening was presented on a large blackboard. You have the freedom of
choosing a bit of “everything” (a taste of 5 of the menu items) or you can
choose 2 to 7 courses. We decided to “only” have two courses this evening and
soon we got some bread and aioli as a starter. Note that there is quite a lot
of cream-based food on the menu that can be an issue if you have lactose intolerance.
We did not have the chance to ask if it was possible to make some of the food dairy free.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE3ibgsPw9U363F0z8E9cIn0k_NqZ_sOoxg0_-gFc3iy0PK4d56GDQAnixjOLPVEgRTbUoU7skKoYby5xMNTnJ5qz-iUvxP7m8bRrlp5zUb2w_ZIz7ugrXi3oKgmVzh-AVfgm95Bw4dDC-/s2048/IMG_20210305_195201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE3ibgsPw9U363F0z8E9cIn0k_NqZ_sOoxg0_-gFc3iy0PK4d56GDQAnixjOLPVEgRTbUoU7skKoYby5xMNTnJ5qz-iUvxP7m8bRrlp5zUb2w_ZIz7ugrXi3oKgmVzh-AVfgm95Bw4dDC-/s320/IMG_20210305_195201.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3nS9daQxFiG3cNlE58i7gdu96g51y8Evi7G9VL5xNEAOm1Y6phwA6rDxTwNIPrtc1H6q64EG8KyMNKUW13TZLP98iU69wsJiLq9JCkXp_fQHvFvD8B6mIFWyEqSSbBLKpZ048nCIUzs2-/s2048/IMG_20210305_194117.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3nS9daQxFiG3cNlE58i7gdu96g51y8Evi7G9VL5xNEAOm1Y6phwA6rDxTwNIPrtc1H6q64EG8KyMNKUW13TZLP98iU69wsJiLq9JCkXp_fQHvFvD8B6mIFWyEqSSbBLKpZ048nCIUzs2-/s320/IMG_20210305_194117.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></div><br /><p>My first dish was Skrei 45° (a piece of cod) that was lovely
– served with a delicious and rich sauce of smoked roe and crème fraiche. Nikki
chose the scallop bouillon, and she was very happy with this. We decided to
have the catch of the day as our main dish and this was cusk (or brosme in
Norwegian) served with mussel sauce, cauliflower puree and vegetables. Again, a
great piece of fish with a tasty and rich sauce! The service was a bit rushed this
evening and maybe they were a bit understaffed, and I would also loved to have
a bit more light at the table to be able to read the wine menu. But the most
important thing is of course the food – and the food was delicious. I hope to
taste more of the menu when we visit again!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihr-58OMh30o2raIMCPy_lCOb2rLYsf_e1fAtSLuuQ14xPHWJ1OJmiPEWTBQVnVpVk37DUFew2WV_Ysn7AgDZbs_MkRa2-9qhbQB_CV39OOhqixzJItyDWih3RhyUleTVYgCi35_xsPma2/s2048/IMG_20210305_195346.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

If you remember my reviews from Restaurant SÖL (see <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2021/03/restaurant-sol-still-rocks.html" target="_blank">this review</a>), you will know that they have focus on nature wines and that seems to also be the concept at the Lapin wine bar. We went there on a Friday evening and it is so new that there is not even a sign outsider the bar yet. It is located in Pedersgata not far from other brilliant places like <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/05/casa-gio-italian-food-made-with-love.html" target="_blank">Casa Gio</a>, <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/12/panzanella-pizzeria-great-pizzas-with.html" target="_blank">Panzanella pizza</a>, <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2020/11/siddis-gelato-opens-store-in-pedersgata.html" target="_blank">Siddis Gelateria</a>, <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/03/hekkan-burger-opens-in-stavanger.html" target="_blank">Hekkan Burger</a> – there is a lot to choose from in Pedersgata these days.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuDF1mAabFLR_sloar-2XuJeyPo-PmZ_x41OY2XragdTyO87_66zki5XaafAOJ4oMDM5VVsUp8KogNE1YpvOzsiduXwn0TS8N6KSQ8cxrUTu_Mbe5smzZrQ-1m1zGvqQB5VyLcXxIZDtp-/s5120/IMG_20210305_175550.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuDF1mAabFLR_sloar-2XuJeyPo-PmZ_x41OY2XragdTyO87_66zki5XaafAOJ4oMDM5VVsUp8KogNE1YpvOzsiduXwn0TS8N6KSQ8cxrUTu_Mbe5smzZrQ-1m1zGvqQB5VyLcXxIZDtp-/s320/IMG_20210305_175550.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGOwnFLT3oOyyhQS2a-n9vu89tGEzk1eeaxmCj34f4CYJPqJGzBTTvRyj0cEGyZV7yZFjDWJ2Ibd3CrR3BZQWIdX6G3TDn4hVtj83nAyFUQ9X4mAuBE1xa90nsWfUv_TjnQzH_aDUBle_m/s3648/IMG_20210305_175504.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGOwnFLT3oOyyhQS2a-n9vu89tGEzk1eeaxmCj34f4CYJPqJGzBTTvRyj0cEGyZV7yZFjDWJ2Ibd3CrR3BZQWIdX6G3TDn4hVtj83nAyFUQ9X4mAuBE1xa90nsWfUv_TjnQzH_aDUBle_m/s320/IMG_20210305_175504.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>The wine bar has 20-30 seats and has an extensive wine menu with Pét-Nat (pétillant naturel), white wine, red wine, and orange wines. The most extensive selection is of course by the bottle but there was also a good selection of wine by the glass. At the moment they also have a bit of snack that you can order – e.g. platter of cheese, platter of cold cuts, sourdough bread etc. We had some of the excellent sourdough bread (that you also get a Restaurant SÖL and a platter of cold cuts. The cold cuts were of good quality as it is supplied by local butcher <a href="https://www.idsoe.no/" target="_blank">Idsøe</a>. We got parma ham, mortadella, salumi and it was lovely with bread and butter.</p><p><br /></p><p>Congratulations on opening of the wine bar!

was ready when we got there a few minutes before our booking We have been there
before (<a href="https://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2018/05/nordic-flavors-at-restaurant-sol.html" target="_blank">see this review</a>) and as you can see from my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/eatingoutinstavanger/guide/best-restaurants-in-stavanger/17883161032883564/" target="_blank">guides on Instagram</a> , I think Restaurant
SÖL is one of the best restaurants in Stavanger. Due to this we were excited to
see if this was still true! The concept is still the same: a set menu and
you can choose wine pairing or have wine from an extensive wine list. We decided
to go for the wine pairing and soon we had a Sylvaner wine from <a href="https://www.vinmonopolet.no/Land/Tyskland/Stefan-Vetter-Sylvaner-2019/p/12421501" target="_blank">Stefan Vetter</a> in the glass and fresh, warm sourdough bread in front of us! The wine was
unfiltered and reminded us a bit about a cider and had a funky natural wine notes
on the nose. The restaurant focus mainly on natural wines. It is always lovely
with fresh bread and butter (yes, still a bread lover) and especially when you
get the impression that the bread comes straight from the oven.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxjOlUEkddjI542U4lLQOZLxApSz5OrqAVKDDl-rRduGrxfC8nJgXTgoc3pWZRg6Ly5b32PKWeOWhnRMqfj8EF4chWuP3KhHB1T9FvnBsdM4glb1rquHQeZjPiFHCfYh3aO1da-LgYMTMr/s3648/IMG_20210226_200722.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxjOlUEkddjI542U4lLQOZLxApSz5OrqAVKDDl-rRduGrxfC8nJgXTgoc3pWZRg6Ly5b32PKWeOWhnRMqfj8EF4chWuP3KhHB1T9FvnBsdM4glb1rquHQeZjPiFHCfYh3aO1da-LgYMTMr/s320/IMG_20210226_200722.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUUa5e0Aaedwf3Rts_cafbo7ZWEi0V_KtpzSxwhPyFOfbADaJU_wMcXSgivFFehZmGRqDcprKqJiFSyWjde1zE4P2ktfM47v2vZSjNFSXpNCLxmZp_fa1KLjXhNxGNf7F_wvt5gLeAc5DE/s3648/IMG_20210226_200122.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUUa5e0Aaedwf3Rts_cafbo7ZWEi0V_KtpzSxwhPyFOfbADaJU_wMcXSgivFFehZmGRqDcprKqJiFSyWjde1zE4P2ktfM47v2vZSjNFSXpNCLxmZp_fa1KLjXhNxGNf7F_wvt5gLeAc5DE/s320/IMG_20210226_200122.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">The first warm(er) dish was spinach in a cheese sauce made
from pecorino and parmesan. It was topped but crisps (or potato chips depending
on where you are from) so we had to dig in to get a bit on the cheese sauce and
the lovely spinach. We moved on and got a glass of Calcarius Ca 40.08 Hellen
Bianco. This Italian white is made by <a href="https://valentinapassalacqua.it/" target="_blank">Valentina Passalacqua</a> and we have tried some of her orange wine and sparkling wine and they are
always fun to try. This wine was served together with skrei (the north Atlantic
cod that is in season) and it was topped with thin slices of mushroom. The fish
had a great grill taste to it and underneath there was a mushroom sauce
bursting with umami and fermented Brussel sprouts. An incredibly tasty dish and
luckily we had some bread left to make sure to get all that delicious mushroom
sauce. The main dish this evening was a slice of duck breast served celeriac
puree and pieces , onion and an amazing chicken stock sauce. The puree was soft
as silk and with a great taste of the celeriac and the sauce was just
incredible. This was served with a Spätburgunder (the German was of Pinot Noir)
from Michael Fiebrich that worked well with the duck.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPCC4bzWZImwZk0cn7HWmnlYpKVZ35D0V5bZvHIsnjfLGjhSLCUJwuXZ8u1wycforOCc94gBMOrrJ5EkuzxCh2A-_ynNEGroeAEmotaOXGGWnvVgbbRKPFjzTURtofxVdwlrx5BRWY5kDq/s3648/IMG_20210226_203303.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPCC4bzWZImwZk0cn7HWmnlYpKVZ35D0V5bZvHIsnjfLGjhSLCUJwuXZ8u1wycforOCc94gBMOrrJ5EkuzxCh2A-_ynNEGroeAEmotaOXGGWnvVgbbRKPFjzTURtofxVdwlrx5BRWY5kDq/s320/IMG_20210226_203303.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDzVlsEmWQ3RL82V6kw_W0k97PlWGJapF9hcEIdNhQODTy5drgTylf1kaw_ttxlHgtwqbVRc6q8KQRJCFA9UnULqw_V7MxrPaFWmOigD8qrVHg0zLBb1XDDuDhs3Lqai8Bb2B4dDS-8H0y/s3648/IMG_20210226_210539.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDzVlsEmWQ3RL82V6kw_W0k97PlWGJapF9hcEIdNhQODTy5drgTylf1kaw_ttxlHgtwqbVRc6q8KQRJCFA9UnULqw_V7MxrPaFWmOigD8qrVHg0zLBb1XDDuDhs3Lqai8Bb2B4dDS-8H0y/s320/IMG_20210226_210539.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">It was time for dessert, and we got some mead to drink – the
Underfundig Mjød was sweet but maybe not as sweet as I thought it would be. But
there was a strange mix of honey and hops and it was a bit like drinking a
sweet, rich beer. It worked very well with the toasted bread ice cream for
dessert. The ice cream itself was rich and creamy and topped with a jam made
from quince (kvede) and topped with Jerusalem artichokes (jordskokk). Sounds
like a strange mix but this was a delicious dessert. To round it off – a potato
donut to be dipped in yogurt and sea buckthorn (tindved).</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6PIz42DCBB60_a0f9S9kZxUDBla377H0gwEPlxu4yXQ6dGgG5WQkg2SyGQzCfOjH_5h9FliPXiwpxlzdHLWuBsb5C00OGywP45si6Eo2MvajUTbTl2xtXbi4z5nTXcQYsyqGZWCVmSAyq/s3648/IMG_20210226_215333.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6PIz42DCBB60_a0f9S9kZxUDBla377H0gwEPlxu4yXQ6dGgG5WQkg2SyGQzCfOjH_5h9FliPXiwpxlzdHLWuBsb5C00OGywP45si6Eo2MvajUTbTl2xtXbi4z5nTXcQYsyqGZWCVmSAyq/s320/IMG_20210226_215333.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilP7Dl6OIp_3h9APHy4yjmfkYGJYuWi2I2xFFQzVwJVzI3o8RFqxtA6vaJxUaSc3ShN2EvLfrivWtI-Yn3ygYlqEIOsEpqUjz7sIbw3loAcieASggC7lmRzZvxUdxHmRAL72Z4rFtrTgMc/s3648/IMG_20210226_222648.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilP7Dl6OIp_3h9APHy4yjmfkYGJYuWi2I2xFFQzVwJVzI3o8RFqxtA6vaJxUaSc3ShN2EvLfrivWtI-Yn3ygYlqEIOsEpqUjz7sIbw3loAcieASggC7lmRzZvxUdxHmRAL72Z4rFtrTgMc/s320/IMG_20210226_222648.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">There is no need to elaborate a lot on a summary. <b>Well

do it! ;-) The "hard work" this time was to decide which place that has the best burger in Stavanger? I brought along a friend on a Saturday afternoon and we did a “mini burger
marathon” in downtown Stavanger and we started at <a href="https://hekkanburger.no/" target="_blank">Hekkan Burger</a> in Pedersgata. This place is very informal with almost an industry look to some of the elements.
But they do have a good burger menu and also serve beer/wine. We were there for
lunch and decided to have the BBQ burger. As we were stopping by many places,
we had to skip the side orders. The burger was served fast and there was more
vegetables on it compared to other times I have been there (or maybe I just
remember wrong) and there was both lettuce and pickles on it together with a
well defined slice of cheese and lovely bacon. The burger was juicy with a good
grill taste and the BBQ sauce was both spicy and sweet. The bun was not that
exciting and could have been toasted a bit more. But all in all – a very good
burger!</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9pVA1qFuJXEVIGCLDDIKRdyleJv82CGuwaTh7uCkUMNUYl6MmaCPsz9DxgyS_KMQPjj-aCtlugaVXjosDkRWBPyniT4xsfTd_4xvRP0w_7mK99IC9Sa1FLDT-bD_PeQAuBms_INWXROsD/s2048/IMG_20201121_125241.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9pVA1qFuJXEVIGCLDDIKRdyleJv82CGuwaTh7uCkUMNUYl6MmaCPsz9DxgyS_KMQPjj-aCtlugaVXjosDkRWBPyniT4xsfTd_4xvRP0w_7mK99IC9Sa1FLDT-bD_PeQAuBms_INWXROsD/s320/IMG_20201121_125241.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGNPet-zyQHrnf29kbf_TU3kOqnQ1rk57ICHHN7KVxqL_dSE42-_dfd6bvUiPXYgHJEUwmtmrUGKKYutV099z5k0PpVqzAPITpvTf4KmzykZNVFQZOwPGv3s2HLT5oDSXVfupszAhzwp9s/s2048/IMG_20201121_125427.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGNPet-zyQHrnf29kbf_TU3kOqnQ1rk57ICHHN7KVxqL_dSE42-_dfd6bvUiPXYgHJEUwmtmrUGKKYutV099z5k0PpVqzAPITpvTf4KmzykZNVFQZOwPGv3s2HLT5oDSXVfupszAhzwp9s/s320/IMG_20201121_125427.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKUiYziUCJ4pcHeRXSh2Mq_ZM1RWutZdwbsRIRNa_QDf846kZlfNCv2Q_927oqlTfJXcRYyfE7F5jRASY5sSXm-oSBqWEbA21bsgdlTInBDKoQxj2uJXBOLSHgHa9t-Rc6R2c6laDMdV88/s2048/IMG_20201121_124729.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKUiYziUCJ4pcHeRXSh2Mq_ZM1RWutZdwbsRIRNa_QDf846kZlfNCv2Q_927oqlTfJXcRYyfE7F5jRASY5sSXm-oSBqWEbA21bsgdlTInBDKoQxj2uJXBOLSHgHa9t-Rc6R2c6laDMdV88/s320/IMG_20201121_124729.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhORmSkPL19Tz0MFiAkGdXq_-HCV-e6lBvUGy1saNSeBHGW7CnURYEJojDbgjdFH5G7dBLV9NPw3EKCTPKBguOKtC6ndAnD0x75FZgn2QZMGe8Ybywo8iT5aQBu456ptmsyVAEbvdSE09Wg/s2048/IMG_20201121_124651.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhORmSkPL19Tz0MFiAkGdXq_-HCV-e6lBvUGy1saNSeBHGW7CnURYEJojDbgjdFH5G7dBLV9NPw3EKCTPKBguOKtC6ndAnD0x75FZgn2QZMGe8Ybywo8iT5aQBu456ptmsyVAEbvdSE09Wg/s320/IMG_20201121_124651.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

My impression that it is usually quite
crowded here so do book a table before you go there. We got a table on the
upper floor and the place is more refined than Hekkan. The menu is extensive
and includes burgers, side orders, menu for the kids, shakes etc. You can also
make your burger vegetarian by switching the patty with <a href="https://www.beyondmeat.com/" target="_blank">Beyond Meat</a>. We decided
to have the Cheddar & Bacon burger as this was the closest we could get to
the burger at Hekkan. There were not that many people when we came but it took
about 25 minutes for the burger to be served. As you can see from the photos,
the burger was tall with chunky vegetables and a pickle on the side. I would
have enjoyed a more defined piece of cheese on the burger and I would have preferred
pickled onion instead of the raw onion. The patty was also quite firm and due
to this it also appears a bit chewier compared to the Hekkan burger.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsXEnE-UGbi3iy6b8MyE9sXrAG-51BAwd9kvq4GYtPbvEAcN0Q8j1Cg0iVXMr0rrXm0dzH6m5Oex8_CFArgdIGlGYXwn8ohTQ2AXA0AszKimH7ZrMZfcle5hZ5M1NsA0RKfzQ2zt0UHabp/s2048/IMG_20201121_133942.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsXEnE-UGbi3iy6b8MyE9sXrAG-51BAwd9kvq4GYtPbvEAcN0Q8j1Cg0iVXMr0rrXm0dzH6m5Oex8_CFArgdIGlGYXwn8ohTQ2AXA0AszKimH7ZrMZfcle5hZ5M1NsA0RKfzQ2zt0UHabp/s320/IMG_20201121_133942.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS63msPGcxloMGlNUoSrlyoEjkwAIBRsDD9dc4e9aIFGoai6fIbT7SgJU8gSXVmwvQ7dGh-Eb-CwmgJEy-Z3i2eW8CvyKvwoLDevycqUbs5TOGEbO0pYyY1l1pRAtsoQ3raPx5nyFB-HBV/s2048/IMG_20201121_134115.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS63msPGcxloMGlNUoSrlyoEjkwAIBRsDD9dc4e9aIFGoai6fIbT7SgJU8gSXVmwvQ7dGh-Eb-CwmgJEy-Z3i2eW8CvyKvwoLDevycqUbs5TOGEbO0pYyY1l1pRAtsoQ3raPx5nyFB-HBV/s320/IMG_20201121_134115.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPuw8rf1Yus9tD3aRO_VbRy9L1VhRTdCbnJU8qp1OGqZnnOPifqawdDVObr5P-KNSYM0TT_a_ixmq4o15pt2ncgtohLpXw92hvRMyIo-B_yf4JlRLSV_EcH8IYAwJTxYls6LHHCVZ5IKmz/s2048/IMG_20201121_131135.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPuw8rf1Yus9tD3aRO_VbRy9L1VhRTdCbnJU8qp1OGqZnnOPifqawdDVObr5P-KNSYM0TT_a_ixmq4o15pt2ncgtohLpXw92hvRMyIo-B_yf4JlRLSV_EcH8IYAwJTxYls6LHHCVZ5IKmz/s320/IMG_20201121_131135.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGcQWzyxhtMIy1kC8ZKNAp5A-Gj-4UpXCLOAkiWdcWeTtMnwl-HyoeQ9qD0DDoTx7lTpZFttMLrSwabZSzvMb0zxCVfq1rJXqHARuI1IHWttpIzpxvDR6mOcT77HdsA_DV1UeR7stJCULI/s2048/IMG_20201121_131333.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGcQWzyxhtMIy1kC8ZKNAp5A-Gj-4UpXCLOAkiWdcWeTtMnwl-HyoeQ9qD0DDoTx7lTpZFttMLrSwabZSzvMb0zxCVfq1rJXqHARuI1IHWttpIzpxvDR6mOcT77HdsA_DV1UeR7stJCULI/s320/IMG_20201121_131333.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p>

hundred meters away. The place has rustic interior with wooden benches and
tables and funny sayings on the walls. We were met by a friendly waiter and got
a table – ordering the food is done in a cellphone app and we decided to have Mr.
Spicy BBQ. The Shack can also server the burgers with <a href="https://www.beyondmeat.com/" target="_blank">Beyond Meat</a> patty. The
burger was served fast and it was a bit smaller than the burger at Døgnvill bit
it was beautifully presented with bacon, lettuce, pickles, and sauce oozing out
from the top. We ordered a 200 g burger and I thought that it would give us a thicker
patty, but we got two patties instead – but they were fried according to our
specification. All in all: a juicy burger, beautifully presented and a great taste!
Kudos to The Shack for making it possible to adjust the toppings to your preference
in the app in an easy way!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju-Rh4msCEtL5CNxcBq3XHFMPpWeul21Ub4b4MKjGP9YPqRuLRKxSQcPvn-tNGHvYs6O6MAvVkrU96ocRkI7sP1N2MGENCGBlCGDrVaPt7AAoCvewlfoXMyJ864RmFbzeAKqT3ffYMrRVZ/s2048/IMG_20201121_142736.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju-Rh4msCEtL5CNxcBq3XHFMPpWeul21Ub4b4MKjGP9YPqRuLRKxSQcPvn-tNGHvYs6O6MAvVkrU96ocRkI7sP1N2MGENCGBlCGDrVaPt7AAoCvewlfoXMyJ864RmFbzeAKqT3ffYMrRVZ/s320/IMG_20201121_142736.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMcJfb5O0WQelDHnDwzDYeXXJJ-QAfCcumpMUMMLUPnhyphenhyphencKrpoEMODatU3qY34PpwPt1BWKg8_mpX0Xr-o4ktdnSHa1Z-mC50mJM5WdgAnq6amY_ogXVyaTzTPcp_e9ndRK-LNFPc8U4lV/s2048/IMG_20201121_142850.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMcJfb5O0WQelDHnDwzDYeXXJJ-QAfCcumpMUMMLUPnhyphenhyphencKrpoEMODatU3qY34PpwPt1BWKg8_mpX0Xr-o4ktdnSHa1Z-mC50mJM5WdgAnq6amY_ogXVyaTzTPcp_e9ndRK-LNFPc8U4lV/s320/IMG_20201121_142850.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKqWc2Z6G2HZToXreICnwtiJPm7dZe2-_MfkxCO606du267vfEL44VXwoqgctn6BZjBgStCLj1Uxh8UTNQaGdRByoQOW71Q-E-MmxJaMKWcFBq5uTTKvSQ_i_iiHnuJb3zkWbPWmY52bbi/s2048/IMG_20201121_140425.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKqWc2Z6G2HZToXreICnwtiJPm7dZe2-_MfkxCO606du267vfEL44VXwoqgctn6BZjBgStCLj1Uxh8UTNQaGdRByoQOW71Q-E-MmxJaMKWcFBq5uTTKvSQ_i_iiHnuJb3zkWbPWmY52bbi/s320/IMG_20201121_140425.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii-zImUXndet2PZGUj8241JsiFnuZkP7ZHRwnYJz0whSaeNWk8as9dSaxrlfICkO9cHcJocQ2GF68gLdYQAyQioCuYG5YODIk9JmIh_5rm95f2cuKWi8mTLGHP5Jbcby0An1Z7S0PSgKgU/s2048/IMG_20201121_141418.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii-zImUXndet2PZGUj8241JsiFnuZkP7ZHRwnYJz0whSaeNWk8as9dSaxrlfICkO9cHcJocQ2GF68gLdYQAyQioCuYG5YODIk9JmIh_5rm95f2cuKWi8mTLGHP5Jbcby0An1Z7S0PSgKgU/s320/IMG_20201121_141418.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span style="background: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic",sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">So which place has the best burger

it is always great to be back. It was nice to see that there was lots of people
in the restaurant and luckily we had a reservation. At Garcia you order
straight from you cellphone like you do at many other restaurants these days and it
works. We decided to start with cod croquettes (or bolhinos as they are also known
as), arancini (risotto balls) and a tartar of smoked salmon from Janas. I love
good bolhinos as these were creamy and had a good taste of the cod. The aranici

mushroom and pecorino. I love my risotto and this was good and I would have enjoyed
a bit larger portion. This dish was quite light compared to the beef cheeks
that some of the others chose. The beef cheeks was real comfort food served
with a rich red wine sauce and a creamy celeriac pure. And yes – the meat was
soooooo tender! As I had a light main dish, I had room for some dessert. The Basque
cheesecake is a simple cheese cake – but it was damn good and had an awesome
creamy texture!</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdKT_aeJ2o2P0b3rtJJpsQvO6OBJ1-OKm9jKWvyKo4V0KNdQNn7zTL4sahXBJ0asjQSs7yGCEGW4v0IwNat0_cCEiZyz1LjmYI6gCI7VUIIfrs0ypNbG32Dl70xLf5ja50pBIbSKaE6Z6x/s3648/IMG_20210220_203030.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdKT_aeJ2o2P0b3rtJJpsQvO6OBJ1-OKm9jKWvyKo4V0KNdQNn7zTL4sahXBJ0asjQSs7yGCEGW4v0IwNat0_cCEiZyz1LjmYI6gCI7VUIIfrs0ypNbG32Dl70xLf5ja50pBIbSKaE6Z6x/s320/IMG_20210220_203030.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRejrxBxdqWOumlhvwWudsoHk8H613a1mt4ojqV5V-RtoclJnGmJk-vy2n3hYZV8n0_wPCaKUC7H8Cpe-Zb96EZlYt4tMiFLPvPvvLGHEFztt2lFuA_41j1x2SafLaEWHhAmcTP8eA4RxJ/s3648/IMG_20210220_203036.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRejrxBxdqWOumlhvwWudsoHk8H613a1mt4ojqV5V-RtoclJnGmJk-vy2n3hYZV8n0_wPCaKUC7H8Cpe-Zb96EZlYt4tMiFLPvPvvLGHEFztt2lFuA_41j1x2SafLaEWHhAmcTP8eA4RxJ/s320/IMG_20210220_203036.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>I have said it before – Garcia does not get enough recognition

we had a booking as it seemed completely full. The place looks like a funky
coffee shop as you enter but then you go through a secret door and you find a
cozy and more traditional restaurant. We had booked the secret 3 course meal
and it did not seem like it was a problem when we mentioned that one of the
participants are lactose intolerant. It was a bit confusing that we were asked
to order some drinks from an app while I asked to get wine from the waiter. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_yE8zaCQo0SSjfUdGUFtw-OnVYtF-RVPH9CX5Ua_c5GrkLHZK0zSbJRal9xLuUFBYJg34yb0WPgLUpyIgR0B2zBbeQLTUJjubKy2pRpvSWcucRu9oMUqVIHOj-DaS15YtLiN1QAcOXtrr/s3648/IMG_20210213_220712.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_yE8zaCQo0SSjfUdGUFtw-OnVYtF-RVPH9CX5Ua_c5GrkLHZK0zSbJRal9xLuUFBYJg34yb0WPgLUpyIgR0B2zBbeQLTUJjubKy2pRpvSWcucRu9oMUqVIHOj-DaS15YtLiN1QAcOXtrr/s320/IMG_20210213_220712.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpIVuzrGf8h8Fgc_nzfllluTPrgBmBm1oz-BozdtPSPZLlKAqjWp_Z7ammz7mZ-p54z2L3d1SJbWBPxCyvPs4it4zlclmV1uI8eNbUdX1EHjwCY51vZEix41dK6szwQ24EJDRAiTlHQ1vP/s5120/IMG_20210213_220651.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpIVuzrGf8h8Fgc_nzfllluTPrgBmBm1oz-BozdtPSPZLlKAqjWp_Z7ammz7mZ-p54z2L3d1SJbWBPxCyvPs4it4zlclmV1uI8eNbUdX1EHjwCY51vZEix41dK6szwQ24EJDRAiTlHQ1vP/s320/IMG_20210213_220651.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">But
it did not take long before we got the starter – a sort of terrine of pork
topped with a carrot mash and served with vegetables and a crunchy bread. The
pork was a good, but it was the carrot blend that stole the show in my opinion.
The main dish turned out to be skrei (the north Atlantic cod that is in season
now) and even if it was a bit on the dry side, it was still a delicious meal. The
fish was topped with a potato and celeriac creamy mash and it came with a rich
red wine sauce with some pieces of sausage in the sauce. Combined with a German
red wine (a Spätburgunder or Pinot Noir) this was a tasty meal. As you can see
from the photos, the portion was hearty, and it was rustic. But that fits the
profile of the restaurant “honest and real food made from good ingredients from
proud suppliers”.<br /><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8dYBKvQpThkf83RXPOdEDkfrXAFyZOVnm7SpEmBGhrfrUhb7m6UzW7XBlFjERMv2yF0G3ITFhUHHz9k4Md2gyolKbpOsoDXV9Gis6zsZYELujHCqZ1Kj9jaYNhw2gbBKJ06gG8TFs1Hz6/s3648/IMG_20210213_204149.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8dYBKvQpThkf83RXPOdEDkfrXAFyZOVnm7SpEmBGhrfrUhb7m6UzW7XBlFjERMv2yF0G3ITFhUHHz9k4Md2gyolKbpOsoDXV9Gis6zsZYELujHCqZ1Kj9jaYNhw2gbBKJ06gG8TFs1Hz6/s320/IMG_20210213_204149.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv28Z15EFFwx6QPs9SEwAqcj3MKMXTmU7oHgPwyOoH-lC6DS9Ffd-U6KdKr7hQ6R1aMIyPGg6ba6n22vEuiX4sauDpbw0IEpIhRSi0M9C17kSd7uj9Lft6ZYy4x-uoxE5iVf9rOJeM1zF4/s3648/IMG_20210213_201321.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv28Z15EFFwx6QPs9SEwAqcj3MKMXTmU7oHgPwyOoH-lC6DS9Ffd-U6KdKr7hQ6R1aMIyPGg6ba6n22vEuiX4sauDpbw0IEpIhRSi0M9C17kSd7uj9Lft6ZYy4x-uoxE5iVf9rOJeM1zF4/s320/IMG_20210213_201321.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">The meal ended with a chocolate dessert that came with a
tindved (or sea buckthorn) ice cream. The chocolate was creamy and intense but
to start with, I was a bit disappointed by the ice cream. I’m more used to the
sorbet from <a href="https://www.siddisgelato.com/" target="_blank">Siddis</a> and <a href="https://www.restaurantrenaa.no/xpress/en/" target="_blank">Renaa GoIs</a> that has more of a sour sting. But the ice cream
at Hemmeleg did taste great together with the chocolate and the Kinn Vintervarmar
- a Barley wine that was served with the dessert. We enjoyed the food at Hemmeleg and we would have loved one more dish as the meal ended too soon.
Thanks for the 3-course secret dinner Hemmeleg restaurant. It is great to see
that there are alternatives to restaurants in Sandnes and Stavanger.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Facts:</b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Open Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 15px;">Homepage: </span><span face="Open Sans, sans-serif" style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-size: 15px;"><a href="https://www.hemmeleg.no/" target="_blank">https://www.hemmeleg.no/</a></span></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; outline: 0px; transition: all 0.3s ease 0s;" /><span face=""Open Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 15px;">Location: </span><span face="Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif" style="background-color: white;">Storgata 12 at Bryne</span><span face=""Open Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 15px;"> – </span><a href="https://g.page/hemmeleg-restaurant?share" style="background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #f2132d; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.3s ease 0s; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">see this Google map</a><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; outline: 0px; transition: all 0.3s ease 0s;" /><span face=""Open Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 15px;">Price: 650 kroner (77 USD) per person for the three course meal </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwhIRIzGdkns-gB1PRlE1dHBVlrpTJxO5EjgNWNipg2Cq7EW0HzNH5XmdwUOO4-vha0b0XZXrJOtFJhyphenhyphen7Wuu3kcubtGm6CWvZL41k949X8qbRdOVzv9evlomTZCckXkqYB1Dw_OhEpel4L/s3648/IMG_20210213_214457.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwhIRIzGdkns-gB1PRlE1dHBVlrpTJxO5EjgNWNipg2Cq7EW0HzNH5XmdwUOO4-vha0b0XZXrJOtFJhyphenhyphen7Wuu3kcubtGm6CWvZL41k949X8qbRdOVzv9evlomTZCckXkqYB1Dw_OhEpel4L/s320/IMG_20210213_214457.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi437YTwzJ-H4DAIXGgrdmE00nmiTKeD-em4IXmYFQVAV5k1L5l_VdAsJ9ESkV2MrIfiXVCMtk_Otg30dzfJTDEKXX8QK_Tr3c9DrCYLKgcLURUgdDsnbBvNE8uHkM_4rzkkWOP9U7zNU4S/s3648/IMG_20210213_220641.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi437YTwzJ-H4DAIXGgrdmE00nmiTKeD-em4IXmYFQVAV5k1L5l_VdAsJ9ESkV2MrIfiXVCMtk_Otg30dzfJTDEKXX8QK_Tr3c9DrCYLKgcLURUgdDsnbBvNE8uHkM_4rzkkWOP9U7zNU4S/s320/IMG_20210213_220641.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>Gardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02597245960589722753noreply@blogger.com0Storgata 12, 4340 Bryne, Norway58.735073699999987 5.647813230.424839863821141 -29.5084368 87.045307536178825 40.8040632tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7316350420663665566.post-50451563698491972502020-12-28T14:53:00.005+01:002020-12-28T14:53:57.544+01:00Dinner at Bellies - featuring Jo Bøe Klakegg <p>With covid-19 restrictions in Oslo, a few restaurants there have chosen to close for a while.

We managed to get a table and was ready to try some vegan “fine dining” once again – Bellies is still the only vegan restaurant in Stavanger as far as I know. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLOZ1t1TlXEpwT51-JGGJR-ytD1-9GNwlNaaYH4TPI4lt0ra7EO7pds_-27CL6DRAIisj3e1IUlGrAvGAV4mJMbxAzxhuAu6_CXBLsxsYx_wV3mUWlDu1fhHEs-HGVvKoyQzH9rfk4qPHK/s3648/IMG_20201210_203602.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLOZ1t1TlXEpwT51-JGGJR-ytD1-9GNwlNaaYH4TPI4lt0ra7EO7pds_-27CL6DRAIisj3e1IUlGrAvGAV4mJMbxAzxhuAu6_CXBLsxsYx_wV3mUWlDu1fhHEs-HGVvKoyQzH9rfk4qPHK/s320/IMG_20201210_203602.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHmX45lkY0uFcAavAgxjsJDu5Zb5l9SEvuqDsdOnXQSz2N9w-4wMgikPfOaa1A_Puomcdb3uhJFlay0q8fvSJ81u9X5j4HI6ep7QGND77FiK7OFSqgLY7qBvba-RzHTVDXserlV7GXlEsW/s3648/IMG_20201210_204942.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHmX45lkY0uFcAavAgxjsJDu5Zb5l9SEvuqDsdOnXQSz2N9w-4wMgikPfOaa1A_Puomcdb3uhJFlay0q8fvSJ81u9X5j4HI6ep7QGND77FiK7OFSqgLY7qBvba-RzHTVDXserlV7GXlEsW/s320/IMG_20201210_204942.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>This time the concept was a set 8 course menu and we started with some lovely fried bread topped with dried, crunchy cabbage. We continued with small dishes such as artichoke pieces, endive in a lemon sauce, a pumpkin “porridge” that was spiced up quite a bit with habanero sauce, potato cream and cauliflower with truffles. As we were quite hungry (and wanted to taste their excellent pizza once again) we also convinced them to squeeze in a pizza before we started with desserts. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjobejZL6amJleHxERKCHgcqQIwjk-BAikioZ69qb_o4_KxnxK1TDvkguBXXuJd7kWXYg_FrdREVu5nRAqk92aq952XU7T5cCpLrrogmvRVKcZ-dSGOENeehWCMHgK58QrbkYEHGC7G_ZTi/s3648/IMG_20201210_210926.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjobejZL6amJleHxERKCHgcqQIwjk-BAikioZ69qb_o4_KxnxK1TDvkguBXXuJd7kWXYg_FrdREVu5nRAqk92aq952XU7T5cCpLrrogmvRVKcZ-dSGOENeehWCMHgK58QrbkYEHGC7G_ZTi/s320/IMG_20201210_210926.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzQm1V1LWn_r8RxI-eNDRNQDuuLXi25596mRXwXC-9uU0jzNRq4XM-wgv6m7tEkCQwxuhq5vViIRwjbGljID24xtq0lpd2xNIoNXMi13qAGKoRhejB-NWpxVu0MboZLCrGgNzU1XdZbxz6/s3648/IMG_20201210_212745.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzQm1V1LWn_r8RxI-eNDRNQDuuLXi25596mRXwXC-9uU0jzNRq4XM-wgv6m7tEkCQwxuhq5vViIRwjbGljID24xtq0lpd2xNIoNXMi13qAGKoRhejB-NWpxVu0MboZLCrGgNzU1XdZbxz6/s320/IMG_20201210_212745.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>The atmosphere in the restaurant was good and it seemed like the chefs were enjoying their work and having a good time and that usually results in good atmosphere and good service. We rounded of the evening with a couple of desserts. My favorite was the delicious almond ice cream with buckthorn and topped with a hazelnut praline.

We got the food surprisingly fast and Nikki got a Thai style curry soup to start with before the rest of the bento box was served. My risotto was yellow and creamy and did not disappoint. There seemed to be a bit more onion in it than I am used to (or maybe it was less fried that what I'm used to) as there was more prominent onion taste. But all in all, a good risotto – I like saffron and it gives an awesome color and great taste. <br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9TIs0q8atNV-X_8atrruYB8TNuaKYXUVO-sPqBhWArv9v6hUyK_cvVNiUP48LxUXezC8PekXa77tFFwOZ400FE7erYvL-3uCr3ht-nQ3rS7p0iQ5tlvJKqfWjolxYUxlfbGoHoDO9jIbS/s3648/IMG_20201128_131356.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9TIs0q8atNV-X_8atrruYB8TNuaKYXUVO-sPqBhWArv9v6hUyK_cvVNiUP48LxUXezC8PekXa77tFFwOZ400FE7erYvL-3uCr3ht-nQ3rS7p0iQ5tlvJKqfWjolxYUxlfbGoHoDO9jIbS/s320/IMG_20201128_131356.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaMyj-sFMHYYXWsetMVTjQVZSW3Bpe_FYNM9Dqya424PYKlMmiKRoIt5FLdF9KicT-gmqxuAzHO8L-mTw_Dt6prXqS367I5cUtEGk78TFFDlagGQgaykivTiv4HvI4sZqOYRP7BErR4mZr/s3648/IMG_20201128_131708.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaMyj-sFMHYYXWsetMVTjQVZSW3Bpe_FYNM9Dqya424PYKlMmiKRoIt5FLdF9KicT-gmqxuAzHO8L-mTw_Dt6prXqS367I5cUtEGk78TFFDlagGQgaykivTiv4HvI4sZqOYRP7BErR4mZr/s320/IMG_20201128_131708.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p>The bento box included quite a bit - tempura, steamed bun, yakitori on a stick, tataki, sashimi etc. Lots of good flavors on one plate but I think I would have preferred a steamed but that was filled with meat and sauce – and not only as a wraparound to the yakitori. But conclusion is that Cin Cin is also a good option for a lunch date. Located in the middle of Stavanger and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere with the open plan layout and view to the kitchen.

The wheat tortillas were quite plain and without the sides this would have been quite a sad fajita. The scampi was quite good, but I would have liked to see my meat fried a bit more as it was quite rare.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrUSHHIQJkn90wO0qug3lulw0ZQSonRbE8Bfy21FVzVVpgFUXIvP504WVvCZFnWEWqF7ko9r3RrEaOK5U_V7ROPqrKl0bW47LFfbrhFztEfaqDpfxqaH8q2XHN89lN_5L9AMXKEwBkhTlr/s3648/IMG_20201126_180112.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrUSHHIQJkn90wO0qug3lulw0ZQSonRbE8Bfy21FVzVVpgFUXIvP504WVvCZFnWEWqF7ko9r3RrEaOK5U_V7ROPqrKl0bW47LFfbrhFztEfaqDpfxqaH8q2XHN89lN_5L9AMXKEwBkhTlr/s320/IMG_20201126_180112.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3IM6EXbcdzM_8T3slYAfdkOeU8c3_0Oqz1Cv78cNpyvLV-mVMP4rHob5coTnsBlbyK0dKx_8jksnmRFbhq-oV3zmZV3_zw7ryVbd5qk3PDlYbHqEH6dwp-7MMnb7e2Im5NJ4WW9SCOzC9/s3648/IMG_20201126_182817.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3IM6EXbcdzM_8T3slYAfdkOeU8c3_0Oqz1Cv78cNpyvLV-mVMP4rHob5coTnsBlbyK0dKx_8jksnmRFbhq-oV3zmZV3_zw7ryVbd5qk3PDlYbHqEH6dwp-7MMnb7e2Im5NJ4WW9SCOzC9/s320/IMG_20201126_182817.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>I have been to Harry Pepper quite a few times over the years and the concept seems to be the same.

How amazing is that? RE-NAA got 2 Michelin stars this year so we were of course very excited. We got to the restaurant at about 6 PM and were greeted by the staff as we entered and we were shown to our table. As we were the first ones there, I got the opportunity to take some photos and just take a look at the stylish restaurant in this beautiful, old and renovated building (located in <a href="https://eilertsmith.no/" target="_blank">Eilert Smith hotell</a>). We soon got some drinks and could enjoy the view to the chefs that were preparing the meal that evening– or should I say, the chefs that were preparing the experience for that evening!<br /><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwjqDioy3EO1GTwPRjDxNPVRK6CILO77jYGtBwvUyJfHrgRp61R5ZoZIJYqk8ifKBOJ5UtLa29clpMDwf-SU2rRLd1cdj7Nr80amRq8D99bb0zT1QZ0O-7tfVbmXUI5O806d164mWJpOVw/s2048/IMG_20201111_175340.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwjqDioy3EO1GTwPRjDxNPVRK6CILO77jYGtBwvUyJfHrgRp61R5ZoZIJYqk8ifKBOJ5UtLa29clpMDwf-SU2rRLd1cdj7Nr80amRq8D99bb0zT1QZ0O-7tfVbmXUI5O806d164mWJpOVw/s320/IMG_20201111_175340.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnh6l2MEF0qs0hyphenhyphenl4WH7Kk246t96IviaAXyYznQmGsgXk35pFd7qAkFhvVwkz-RVDshhymMKjyjXjx3qtntCjRrO1S753Jc61MCvnVYYOQNVue4QRe-Dss5eSKv4ZnqrDE345zJsQh6mDW/s2048/IMG_2499.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnh6l2MEF0qs0hyphenhyphenl4WH7Kk246t96IviaAXyYznQmGsgXk35pFd7qAkFhvVwkz-RVDshhymMKjyjXjx3qtntCjRrO1S753Jc61MCvnVYYOQNVue4QRe-Dss5eSKv4ZnqrDE345zJsQh6mDW/s320/IMG_2499.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC5XfQBud20Bip6EuAOwS2hjwV0ANhiLifUrZqnC39Zb8NzjjOLBWd3-5-NMCSqXye99Lc-7ZTg7U0X12AtJPQenwr-Os9UZVevH3qJygxT-Iu910q3M9qLyXov79M_RbHy0APyZb8tlQE/s2048/IMG_2500.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC5XfQBud20Bip6EuAOwS2hjwV0ANhiLifUrZqnC39Zb8NzjjOLBWd3-5-NMCSqXye99Lc-7ZTg7U0X12AtJPQenwr-Os9UZVevH3qJygxT-Iu910q3M9qLyXov79M_RbHy0APyZb8tlQE/s320/IMG_2500.JPG" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLN6fbErSTqAhp3zdFRpfUThxhDPhLfMjmfr_X-JZolsOhtg-DSgy61pUkG_wJ_3XvMaMeD1QlH43pJ3PgFAJkW7Z3HeDF96yZqJXTUPfMhz4bn4Yn6vX7XmS6d06ht7KL0FcDg22r28NX/s2048/IMG_20201111_182852.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLN6fbErSTqAhp3zdFRpfUThxhDPhLfMjmfr_X-JZolsOhtg-DSgy61pUkG_wJ_3XvMaMeD1QlH43pJ3PgFAJkW7Z3HeDF96yZqJXTUPfMhz4bn4Yn6vX7XmS6d06ht7KL0FcDg22r28NX/s320/IMG_20201111_182852.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There is not much you have to decide on – the menu is set and you only have to decide if you want a wine pairing or not.

At the moment, I think RE-NAA is the only Norwegian restaurant that has two Michelin stars and it is quite an experience to dine there. Food is one thing - but everything else also works without any flaws. I'm very impressed by the service and knowledge that the staff displays.

The booking of food and drinks is done by scanning a QR code and then selecting from a menu and you also pay there. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1aRCMNo4KYRPHxk-RLmkmIwvWx8Ym8CNrZxFPesle0KM4IuMiyPNCI2CQUDFnEZ2CXoEwWY0plrsKTklhG04hpS8PlbnuFFu-qloZHcWVqt786qQPiKfZBLe4PCkVoW1xYKAqtgMhDAyk/s3648/IMG_20201118_170919.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1aRCMNo4KYRPHxk-RLmkmIwvWx8Ym8CNrZxFPesle0KM4IuMiyPNCI2CQUDFnEZ2CXoEwWY0plrsKTklhG04hpS8PlbnuFFu-qloZHcWVqt786qQPiKfZBLe4PCkVoW1xYKAqtgMhDAyk/s320/IMG_20201118_170919.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj0dzIOUaemL0dE1CNGGOFLOYBqILpPE_zpkX4HUT8jUy_DyilzxmszKdECFmw6l1TaSTxU6fWD1EzqNlN6n9G3D8Ebe0_5qgkms41Daoon3mdZYYYalmRKKT6ewJse3QVUssbYl9RELKq/s3648/IMG_20201118_170955.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj0dzIOUaemL0dE1CNGGOFLOYBqILpPE_zpkX4HUT8jUy_DyilzxmszKdECFmw6l1TaSTxU6fWD1EzqNlN6n9G3D8Ebe0_5qgkms41Daoon3mdZYYYalmRKKT6ewJse3QVUssbYl9RELKq/s320/IMG_20201118_170955.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We decided to go for the weekly special and it was served quite fast! The weekly special was baked salmon on risotto. I love my risotto and this was quite well made – creamy and with rice that were still a bit firm. It was also good with some firm peas in the risotto itself. The risotto was topped with a salmon that was supposed to be baked but it appeared quite raw – that is not much of a problem and it seemed to get some heat treatment just by being on top of the risotto. All in all a good meal and it was good to go out and support a local business on a regular Wednesday. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0J4rPXWYBtTnNYFpnaEwDt8A0xiyVLOiRoghvyu01Hx1N3P4RTDvElviQJITQAozcuc6itBKKMIo-3FoqnDB_fiANlnc6DqMd4B_tPpbi3ZYfeWCqtN42BBZobpOi16rCckmyObd8IKKg/s3648/IMG_20201118_165641.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0J4rPXWYBtTnNYFpnaEwDt8A0xiyVLOiRoghvyu01Hx1N3P4RTDvElviQJITQAozcuc6itBKKMIo-3FoqnDB_fiANlnc6DqMd4B_tPpbi3ZYfeWCqtN42BBZobpOi16rCckmyObd8IKKg/s320/IMG_20201118_165641.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHLFO084vkyeDuTrJTE1IlvXc6SdjeZhFFqfUMGwd_yNLe3sBFhlRPpzZ7B_MINiUfUK5Q-t6WvNFFRjs-hDnnj9wEBopjtxeQIScFwLV0VPyCkJoPbtBX_yuris1UKsX4Admi5cekhs3G/s3648/IMG_20201118_170931.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHLFO084vkyeDuTrJTE1IlvXc6SdjeZhFFqfUMGwd_yNLe3sBFhlRPpzZ7B_MINiUfUK5Q-t6WvNFFRjs-hDnnj9wEBopjtxeQIScFwLV0VPyCkJoPbtBX_yuris1UKsX4Admi5cekhs3G/s320/IMG_20201118_170931.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It is a bit sad to see that Ostehuset is just running the café now.

It has been a while since I have been there, and it was great to see that they have used the corona lockdown period to refurbish the place a bit. Now even more stylish and more dedicated to being a French bistro. Next door is <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Lou-Lou-Stavanger-588456098295712/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">Lou-Lou</a> – the wine bar that belongs to Renaa and that is also worth a visit. In Matbaren the setting is relaxed and informal – and the room is still dominated by the neon sign and the sculpture by <a href="https://www.antonygormley.com/" target="_blank">Antony Gormley</a>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSxaWhGhQpHpKleumgNVnfbRyps9yQINO0MCBR_5ibAqBf2mVZFgTpRopInclAP2JY-Rc_dXj9QC9hhZ0EgBc6kgacRpIKZQH0RNULTrVErxNbZC3tYrj2YMlIpTeDo_zrwv7mTjeidIZw/s3648/IMG_20201114_174456.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSxaWhGhQpHpKleumgNVnfbRyps9yQINO0MCBR_5ibAqBf2mVZFgTpRopInclAP2JY-Rc_dXj9QC9hhZ0EgBc6kgacRpIKZQH0RNULTrVErxNbZC3tYrj2YMlIpTeDo_zrwv7mTjeidIZw/s320/IMG_20201114_174456.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3-K3vlB442GWssWE9gsTSk2IUZEFHIPDWfrHQwjWILRnzUBqCWcYDZKqEjsS9AWUjX1qmSAyWOuU1_fZq453Hjpoc7klRjF56zTJmH10-OXqYF3fhVPaTGC63YG9F3tuU670diL0GMWBp/s3648/IMG_20201114_184740.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3-K3vlB442GWssWE9gsTSk2IUZEFHIPDWfrHQwjWILRnzUBqCWcYDZKqEjsS9AWUjX1qmSAyWOuU1_fZq453Hjpoc7klRjF56zTJmH10-OXqYF3fhVPaTGC63YG9F3tuU670diL0GMWBp/s320/IMG_20201114_184740.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>We got the menus and it was in French and Norwegian – just to emphasize on the French bistro setting I guess. There are a few small snack dishes to nibble on, some starters and a few mains. Most of it contains local fish and meats so there is not that much focus on vegans and vegetarians. We decided to share some starters, and some had fresh oysters, we shared some croquettes, some charcuterie and some cheese. The croquettes were fresh and was just a bit spiced up with chili and were great. And you can’t really go wrong with cold cuts! The wine list is not that extensive in Matbaren but if you ask, they bring out a more extensive list - which has a lot of focus on French wines of course ;-)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPZHJRZ28kMldr0uGcZr6ykknBF5BpX-9OmdmW1QcfAR92TFBq9uylYn5VQPVdT3G-rhDypiDUkUQ0r1eu4seUeivKRVxTPb63QX2iIbbz_6uXvrm51LNFWvMIrWBXjpcHDRPD4E_oLHPL/s3648/IMG_20201114_184855.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPZHJRZ28kMldr0uGcZr6ykknBF5BpX-9OmdmW1QcfAR92TFBq9uylYn5VQPVdT3G-rhDypiDUkUQ0r1eu4seUeivKRVxTPb63QX2iIbbz_6uXvrm51LNFWvMIrWBXjpcHDRPD4E_oLHPL/s320/IMG_20201114_184855.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuqON29ud3lQ8f1IiEnbwTaXGFA2QiTO8QGsb0sDFtCduwFbpRwlcDE2UKFCJv120zmDA1KEsz2M-BHfeO8_Pca37LdCjNG9s9qc2Wicwd1OUyhoLbgyKnNBRO99WytvIYCPzXd-8_d3oX/s3648/IMG_20201114_184932.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuqON29ud3lQ8f1IiEnbwTaXGFA2QiTO8QGsb0sDFtCduwFbpRwlcDE2UKFCJv120zmDA1KEsz2M-BHfeO8_Pca37LdCjNG9s9qc2Wicwd1OUyhoLbgyKnNBRO99WytvIYCPzXd-8_d3oX/s320/IMG_20201114_184932.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>My main was quail from the area and it was deep fried and topped with herb butter and French fries on the side. The butter melted on top of the quail and it was excellent and satisfying! There was a small salad on the side, but I would have loved to have a few baked vegetables on the side as well. </p><p>I rounded on the meal with some espresso gelato topped with salted caramel and some sort of sabayon sauce. As you have seen from the blog, I like my gelato and I would have liked to see an even stronger coffee taste in the gelato.

After we got rid of the jackets, we were led down the staircase – first of the mezzanine level that contains a bar and a window and then further down to the restaurant. As you have probably seen from lots of photos, the restaurant is dominated by a HUGE window facing the ocean. This window lights up the restaurant with a beautiful light and it also creates a relaxed atmosphere in the room. You can see the movement of the ocean, jelly fish that are moving in the current, fish swim by and star fish that are hanging on the window.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg71yQoSf85Mql9w_euTBFYG7I0iwKGAPdzu9z1Um7jl6VcGnhHg01Jm_t16ncwtu_SzyRoEb01qjc2fI7wsfu8nmfBew9OUemO2S2ZSTCW2Mt12tg5GC6baH1516AMIrffiH49XI5QQEWg/s5120/IMG_20201107_182634.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg71yQoSf85Mql9w_euTBFYG7I0iwKGAPdzu9z1Um7jl6VcGnhHg01Jm_t16ncwtu_SzyRoEb01qjc2fI7wsfu8nmfBew9OUemO2S2ZSTCW2Mt12tg5GC6baH1516AMIrffiH49XI5QQEWg/s320/IMG_20201107_182634.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3msXbQgxdevFun-xL_xKxUbPlcGSFZn42qvzM1L4JjBfAEcvyow57YevfJaML8X3vRx0oVn19j_VOKh3xRuJ8Sbgw4qX1gOxISLpCFE32Poalf4a5suRlUlaE3M5mhyDQe0aj76Wh3wIi/s3648/IMG_20201107_175457.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3msXbQgxdevFun-xL_xKxUbPlcGSFZn42qvzM1L4JjBfAEcvyow57YevfJaML8X3vRx0oVn19j_VOKh3xRuJ8Sbgw4qX1gOxISLpCFE32Poalf4a5suRlUlaE3M5mhyDQe0aj76Wh3wIi/s320/IMG_20201107_175457.jpg" width="320" /></a></p><p>The restaurant operates with a set menu and you can also get wine pairing with the food. As the menu changes according to season and what products that are available, I will not go into much detail, but I think the photos can give you an indication of what to expect. As this place is on the coast, there is of course focus on seafood and we had squat lobster, crab cake, carpet clam, mahogany clam, scallop, eel, fish pudding, langoustine, lamb and so on. My favorites were the eel, the fish pudding and the langoustine. Can you spot the ants in one of the desserts? You can see descriptions of the food by moving the cursor on top of the photos.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq2oai0VabpBdUFMsRZ6csUAE0XqRPA4J2r6wfm30ywJfcAngl4gKctG2c3x-6G8sOQGzS93IqhNf1TkWwYPfUC7HSj56TknwjHGZJmnMeW5CkHLS5wPjY4pIy3ChaA9xFze2GQjqgHUAo/s5120/IMG_20201107_181655.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Limpet - Albuskjell" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq2oai0VabpBdUFMsRZ6csUAE0XqRPA4J2r6wfm30ywJfcAngl4gKctG2c3x-6G8sOQGzS93IqhNf1TkWwYPfUC7HSj56TknwjHGZJmnMeW5CkHLS5wPjY4pIy3ChaA9xFze2GQjqgHUAo/w320-h240/IMG_20201107_181655.jpg" title="Limpet - Albuskjell" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC4m3Sp2UhVmHZNjy2arHX4lBEwCGDDdvWNavbBmRTgY13Gj-nlRlB1hmOJiQPRGh9FZU4q95ugO3SWg9lcBha-1aIFESTq3Bum8fKPzA1m1siuMkZEEpPyrZmsmlc-W5VtPKvDYxYMYSz/s3648/IMG_20201107_181851.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC4m3Sp2UhVmHZNjy2arHX4lBEwCGDDdvWNavbBmRTgY13Gj-nlRlB1hmOJiQPRGh9FZU4q95ugO3SWg9lcBha-1aIFESTq3Bum8fKPzA1m1siuMkZEEpPyrZmsmlc-W5VtPKvDYxYMYSz/w320-h240/IMG_20201107_181851.jpg" title="Rugose Squat Lobster" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDjIzjH2Ixt-sLoqj0n9-7jMpVmnN5OwqlsxPwi3k2wU-mtljarwusB1slhvMeKACv83wdvV5dDzPAZIacNqa5aldWXWqoohwJpFkbxPyfC8vUOoV2wY8R0-o0AETaSo5WVHBZ6w-7hkjG/s3648/IMG_20201107_182315.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDjIzjH2Ixt-sLoqj0n9-7jMpVmnN5OwqlsxPwi3k2wU-mtljarwusB1slhvMeKACv83wdvV5dDzPAZIacNqa5aldWXWqoohwJpFkbxPyfC8vUOoV2wY8R0-o0AETaSo5WVHBZ6w-7hkjG/w320-h240/IMG_20201107_182315.jpg" title="Crab -soured buckwheat and "Rødlin" cheese" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgye1l3quTv3Wz-btJ48V1PYt5el2hS5NeLNvPjlzEzGInYM-eKC2jlrJ6ZlX5o5NPDnv3Scg4JdiOMEjFFXv6He1q9XXA1d1tBRWE9FDDO-afIS4t-TMPYzExS_QJJUJfJYvbwIjc9ybAb/s3648/IMG_20201107_182744.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgye1l3quTv3Wz-btJ48V1PYt5el2hS5NeLNvPjlzEzGInYM-eKC2jlrJ6ZlX5o5NPDnv3Scg4JdiOMEjFFXv6He1q9XXA1d1tBRWE9FDDO-afIS4t-TMPYzExS_QJJUJfJYvbwIjc9ybAb/w320-h240/IMG_20201107_182744.jpg" title="Moose" width="320" /></a></div><p>All in all, an experience that I will remember for a long time. The combination of the spectacular setting, the beautiful interior, the light from the ocean and marine life and the food and wine, makes this a place that should be on your bucket list if you enjoy fine dining. Under was rewarded with one star in the Michelin guide this year – and they have only been open since 2019!

I recommend the 'Nduja and burrata – if you like it a bit spicy of course. The 'Nduja
is quite spicy and can be quite intense so be warned. I had ravioli filled with
porcini mushroom and it was quite a good dish.<br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn7jf7INerna3Y3hMLhyphenhyphenI0QfKJRRkkWTTGXZEekAu1UAgs2VTm-lq6Pys-MpUSdr8NvKQJUIuZknqlp-i35-3EOdM_7Y2TMImJZtIUzMO0GCFTsD1ffBfbEdK9r0a3plR5yF6d8qtGY_e2/s3648/IMG_20201104_195331.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn7jf7INerna3Y3hMLhyphenhyphenI0QfKJRRkkWTTGXZEekAu1UAgs2VTm-lq6Pys-MpUSdr8NvKQJUIuZknqlp-i35-3EOdM_7Y2TMImJZtIUzMO0GCFTsD1ffBfbEdK9r0a3plR5yF6d8qtGY_e2/s320/IMG_20201104_195331.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvlMP_luPiFJ4n1cNAaDzLfnPhWsZDLHzP2inThKcgV-dRY-JU4DWsIx7M-4meoI7DZXdJ2adB7l6Ukog9At1TQaYeyLl4CMC4t-hK2wuaQdgQKNi7W0OgAvbQkVhYm_qskFXB8D7Xoyo5/s3648/IMG_20201104_195412.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvlMP_luPiFJ4n1cNAaDzLfnPhWsZDLHzP2inThKcgV-dRY-JU4DWsIx7M-4meoI7DZXdJ2adB7l6Ukog9At1TQaYeyLl4CMC4t-hK2wuaQdgQKNi7W0OgAvbQkVhYm_qskFXB8D7Xoyo5/s320/IMG_20201104_195412.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>All in all I would say that Olivia is easy to like and most

been possible to buy good quality gelato and sorbet in Stavanger. With places
like <a href="http://www.restaurantrenaa.no/xpress/en/" target="_blank">Renaa Xpress</a> (GoIs) and <a href="https://www.siddisgelato.com/" target="_blank">Siddis Gelato</a>, we have been able to taste awesome flavors
and combination. My favorite is <b>Siddis Gelato</b> and for the last year they have
been producing at a location and Eiganes and selling on Facebook and at local
farmers markets. But last weekend, Siddis Gelato also opened a store in Pedersgata
- the food street of Stavanger. Now you can stop by to taste some of the great
gelati and sorbet that they make! </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">My favorites are tindved sorbet (sea
buckthorn or is it hippophae?), salt caramel gelato and espresso gelato. The tindved sorbet is in
the final of <a href="http://detnorskemaltid.no/" target="_blank">Det Norske måltid</a> (food award of Norway). Make sure to stop by
Siddis Gelato and support the great local producer of gelato and sorbet – so that
we can continue to enjoy the great quality flavors that are produced there! The gelato store in Pedersgata is located no. 46 (right next to <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/05/casa-gio-italian-food-made-with-love.html" target="_blank">Casa Gio</a> and across the street from <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/12/panzanella-pizzeria-great-pizzas-with.html" target="_blank">Panzanella</a>).<o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

We went there on a Friday evening recently and were pleasantly surprised to see that they have done some renovation. It now looks “cleaner” and more stylish (less knickknacks basically). We got the menu and were a bit surprised to see that there was a lot of focus on Christmas food already in the end of October! I think it is great that there are options of getting Norwegian Christmas food at Stavanger restaurants, but I would also like to see a good range of other things on the menu. We decided to go for a tarte flambee to start with and burger as the main. We got the tarte flambee after 15-20 minutes and this is a French version of a pizza. It was fun to see that they had decided to be playful and have fenalår (traditional cured meat) on it and this was a good combination. I’m not sure how a tarte flambee should be like but I think I prefer an Italian pizza with a bit more crust as this version got a bit dry.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz1w9QXWzAnbkPgtnO6cgoi3BtohGxrIB10Zyp6tako1Si8LpV5PHgiig9ki1PHdIUaiBkKUlWQ8xniPuzLWzutv16SfMYrw1BS_9rpzWb_zfaA9Z_sS4f0HUOrg81o7T4aO9R3YkwOTAX/s3648/IMG_20201030_193234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiz1w9QXWzAnbkPgtnO6cgoi3BtohGxrIB10Zyp6tako1Si8LpV5PHgiig9ki1PHdIUaiBkKUlWQ8xniPuzLWzutv16SfMYrw1BS_9rpzWb_zfaA9Z_sS4f0HUOrg81o7T4aO9R3YkwOTAX/s320/IMG_20201030_193234.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA9-MVjFVTU7nPBrQ-FAjQ5MpjPc767nmBiWS7ULzAPtTOrmEXJhdha6_9uVOpqXHEa8RjWeMOYkY8dStNki3YnbwLXaoNenfh0QCFqfjWbLRwglA6GvxVcCyAnOXvDQolep53JSQrtzYE/s3648/IMG_20201030_191805.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA9-MVjFVTU7nPBrQ-FAjQ5MpjPc767nmBiWS7ULzAPtTOrmEXJhdha6_9uVOpqXHEa8RjWeMOYkY8dStNki3YnbwLXaoNenfh0QCFqfjWbLRwglA6GvxVcCyAnOXvDQolep53JSQrtzYE/s320/IMG_20201030_191805.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />We soon got the burger, and it was served on a wooden platter with some ketchup and some fries.

great, small restaurant run by three young chefs and with focus on Nordic flavors
and interesting wines – you can read about our previous dinner experience there
<a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2018/05/nordic-flavors-at-restaurant-sol.html" target="_blank">in this review</a>. Restaurant SÖL also served lunch on Saturdays and we booked a
table for lunch in the end of October. When we came, we were the first ones
there and there is a calm and relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant. There is only
one option for lunch – and you can also have dessert. On this day, the lunch
was variations of brussels sprouts and dessert was cream cheese ice cream. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAAn5bOEfhaii0Ki7V6NnD8J_32_56bIMMVsSXM5PQ9Z0_FV7wakOcVWUQTB0HdUYe1XuPr8wJqmC6srFXMeA4KBe0kmNPht6sDLVN1ffNH8vNYd7hwer8qlNN6R5oAyfkXrFKdINZOFfL/s3648/IMG_20201031_132329.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAAn5bOEfhaii0Ki7V6NnD8J_32_56bIMMVsSXM5PQ9Z0_FV7wakOcVWUQTB0HdUYe1XuPr8wJqmC6srFXMeA4KBe0kmNPht6sDLVN1ffNH8vNYd7hwer8qlNN6R5oAyfkXrFKdINZOFfL/s320/IMG_20201031_132329.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZsaq7Wj14lXuWFugxOZe6dgVg1Kjff5hyphenhyphen0J1PjdFG-5RZfy-cfLE_JQ24kou7HlSaV5dUnkfIiEA5nZNAZf3Jk-gBePnsX72qSvwJp-Yg5OAAqQRGhOCa7S0Se7hqpiRcuHjev8Ms5VxZ/s3648/IMG_20201031_132054.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZsaq7Wj14lXuWFugxOZe6dgVg1Kjff5hyphenhyphen0J1PjdFG-5RZfy-cfLE_JQ24kou7HlSaV5dUnkfIiEA5nZNAZf3Jk-gBePnsX72qSvwJp-Yg5OAAqQRGhOCa7S0Se7hqpiRcuHjev8Ms5VxZ/s320/IMG_20201031_132054.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></div><p class="MsoNormal">First
of all, we got a fresh and still steaming sourdough bun with good butter on the
side – as a bread lover, I love getting fresh bread like this. Soon we also got
the lunch dish! There were variations of brussels sprouts in the broth that was
rich and tasty, there was homemade bacon and homemade pasta and even a poached
egg in the middle! This might seem like a simple dish, but I think there is
more to it and Restaurant SÖL nailed it. I loved the combination of the
vegetables, bacon, broth and pasta – but the egg was maybe the only thing that
didn’t quite fit in there. We also decided to have dessert and the cream cheese
ice cream is excellent with caramel, berries, and buckwheat.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_HPCapfY0-5SgtmE-7XqmHN00cZL9c02WELyIy3sSB7Br0-IPmzriVSZb33sGH_iFQStiHO9yJ6tF9vpYAUtsZXmkKNd9AT31qKtJKA2bkXOD4gJLWnA2RQBsa3R1K5EiHAw5TXkeO39F/s3648/IMG_20201031_131909.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_HPCapfY0-5SgtmE-7XqmHN00cZL9c02WELyIy3sSB7Br0-IPmzriVSZb33sGH_iFQStiHO9yJ6tF9vpYAUtsZXmkKNd9AT31qKtJKA2bkXOD4gJLWnA2RQBsa3R1K5EiHAw5TXkeO39F/s320/IMG_20201031_131909.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngaB6ZjDLU4qwOGaLiQWCgH7q4Tk9tak3vR_jOfgvJvyyr1j2n4AnSmjG5EOTI6Guh4-tPOL__fZxJmoqdcBlaXJ_ZCYNzMOeezJiY4CeqTrAjalFCnElx_-i-jZt-ztsVMahH0cO-YF6/s3648/IMG_20201031_135109.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngaB6ZjDLU4qwOGaLiQWCgH7q4Tk9tak3vR_jOfgvJvyyr1j2n4AnSmjG5EOTI6Guh4-tPOL__fZxJmoqdcBlaXJ_ZCYNzMOeezJiY4CeqTrAjalFCnElx_-i-jZt-ztsVMahH0cO-YF6/s320/IMG_20201031_135109.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></div><p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for a great lunch!

went there on a Saturday night to check it out. The place has not been changed
that much and the concept is similar to before – a few smaller dishes and you
can decide to just have a few or all of them.

We also got some crisps and a small
herring and apple dish as an amuse bouche and it both tasty
and pretty. The first dish was a “soup” and when it was served it looked like a
warm dish, but it was more like a gazpacho. The local tomatoes are good and
combined with good olives, a bit of feta cheese and some chili oil, this was a
good dish. Next up was an artichoke barigoule – a traditional French dish with
braised artichoke. I think they did a twist on this as it did not come with the
cured ham specified on the menu but an apple jam that dominated the dish in a negative was. We
would have enjoyed more artichoke.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaaJOeE0031UyztySNvT2Efz38egAqDbnu_RRbT34dijGtwsRYkCjuphFIKhLSSGIuUPvuvmtsxrj1E8q_OJbHl4yJChFdyYHTw4ao87bwTQ5XwlcDTpqPDVPx5qk4pMs4ztjtTtvIcVzs/s3648/IMG_20201024_213327.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaaJOeE0031UyztySNvT2Efz38egAqDbnu_RRbT34dijGtwsRYkCjuphFIKhLSSGIuUPvuvmtsxrj1E8q_OJbHl4yJChFdyYHTw4ao87bwTQ5XwlcDTpqPDVPx5qk4pMs4ztjtTtvIcVzs/s320/IMG_20201024_213327.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOCo2jQ5f0FSnTUZHC4FT5wFI98p-poPlz902T9l81IKjB0J59F8YQ8RkmlPl9Wv-P0FS7YO33CcbEqJ6Z_LCc7ITEdsV4O3iJ33yWKTaFqTpNSbVuLZ772NzKqiMOKPNcEBhyphenhyphenTFZFVL-X/s3648/IMG_20201024_220216.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOCo2jQ5f0FSnTUZHC4FT5wFI98p-poPlz902T9l81IKjB0J59F8YQ8RkmlPl9Wv-P0FS7YO33CcbEqJ6Z_LCc7ITEdsV4O3iJ33yWKTaFqTpNSbVuLZ772NzKqiMOKPNcEBhyphenhyphenTFZFVL-X/s320/IMG_20201024_220216.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We moved on to salmon from Hjelmeland – served with daikon and
greens. The dish was also served with a small tartar of salmon wrapped in rice paper, and this wasthe best part of this dish! Next up was a small risotto and the risotto was great - but I would have enjoyed a bit more risotto and less of the pumpkin topping.
The grand finale was lamb from Brimse gård but just the look was a bit
disappointing. The piece of lamb was quite good, but the lamb meatball was lacking
in taste and the Jerusalem artichokes was not done right in my opinion – they should
have been backed a bit longer as they were very firm. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinkfjp0rdNr7oVifCD9pgeV9_xZLJ8JZX0WnuM9BKAnwyb6BYNEJ9OV8gHxQNZWSLZDXEq07kQhELmlZ7lz_-xEMtgKA3fl5KhyphenhyphenaFdE6oC7Slgv_fP1q9L43yN6qmetJLS2ykoQa_FEMdf/s3648/IMG_20201024_222950.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinkfjp0rdNr7oVifCD9pgeV9_xZLJ8JZX0WnuM9BKAnwyb6BYNEJ9OV8gHxQNZWSLZDXEq07kQhELmlZ7lz_-xEMtgKA3fl5KhyphenhyphenaFdE6oC7Slgv_fP1q9L43yN6qmetJLS2ykoQa_FEMdf/s320/IMG_20201024_222950.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieS1JxUkeldGU6d9x3o9wCORMUF3bQFZQ2FNOuAXM1Eylox2N9Xn8YIwwlISG8wYK8It6_exUzfAT1MWz09qf6kUTLo5nNJHtplVrBSDGn_UurO1WiO8PcX8C1FAgaS8Y1_Epx3O9pUfry/s3648/IMG_20201024_230806.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieS1JxUkeldGU6d9x3o9wCORMUF3bQFZQ2FNOuAXM1Eylox2N9Xn8YIwwlISG8wYK8It6_exUzfAT1MWz09qf6kUTLo5nNJHtplVrBSDGn_UurO1WiO8PcX8C1FAgaS8Y1_Epx3O9pUfry/s320/IMG_20201024_230806.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">To round of the meal, we

produce. I think there is some room for improvement on the food and it would
have been great if there was one dish that came out as the “star of the show”. It
is only a couple of weeks since they opened and maybe this is just some start
up issue. I will probably go back to re-visit Matkontoret as I like the concept
and place.

It is a bit like coming home when you enter as there is a book shelf and sofas. We got a table in the corner and decided to share some Bolinhos to start with and I ordered the risotto and cod while Nikki ordered the burger. The Bolinhos was served fast and they were served on a small salad. The Bolinhos was fresh and piping hot – they were good, but I would have enjoyed having a bit more fish in the mix and less potatoes. The salad was pimped up with a delicious parmesan mayonnaise. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8GQbPbaJWdIfhFZSrW_G1vmfcRsRIGe19AhWX8bIVf6SnSB2eEglzoF2LgtGGXzYY0565cgxL-I9KZluIGq-lRzvokSlFlrjBcF8PWTV5A8qvq1XMZOCf3sqOcV9P2cqs2KaYfyqtdjIB/s3648/IMG_20200930_182722.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8GQbPbaJWdIfhFZSrW_G1vmfcRsRIGe19AhWX8bIVf6SnSB2eEglzoF2LgtGGXzYY0565cgxL-I9KZluIGq-lRzvokSlFlrjBcF8PWTV5A8qvq1XMZOCf3sqOcV9P2cqs2KaYfyqtdjIB/s320/IMG_20200930_182722.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw7DhlCkzgsoK8v49bX2sT_sa-kExIsdNLd7pct215ns0S8Qx2aSoV5i3-X4S_apSIeT75iD8c4tShf4Sa2mz5NkRTld-O_UBtHkh_z1sZAEJSfV9q5xOztlYekUE80fvFvxXkcAu7lo-P/s3648/IMG_20200930_181659.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw7DhlCkzgsoK8v49bX2sT_sa-kExIsdNLd7pct215ns0S8Qx2aSoV5i3-X4S_apSIeT75iD8c4tShf4Sa2mz5NkRTld-O_UBtHkh_z1sZAEJSfV9q5xOztlYekUE80fvFvxXkcAu7lo-P/s320/IMG_20200930_181659.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>The risotto was served soon after and there was quite a lot of contrast with the green pea risotto, the white cod and the chorizo topping.

The restaurant opened in May 2020 and the philosophy is to have a minimum footprint –meaning that they use local produce; preserve food that is harvested; focus on nature/biodynamic wines; reduce waste etc. Can this translate into a great dining experience, as well? Our booking was from 7 pm and we were seated a bit away from the kitchen. The restaurant is a bit on the sterile side with light colors on the walls, local art (e.g. from <a href="http://www.anitatjemsland.com/" target="_blank">Anita Tjemsland</a>), dark tables and wooden chairs that were quite comfortable. There is only a set 7 course menu to choose from but the menu options include vegetarian or with meat/fish. They also offer an alcoholic/non-alcoholic drinks pairing. They actually pair the food with a combination of cocktails, wine and beer. Although we were in a celebratory mood, we did not feel that adventurous this evening so we asked for just a wine pairing with our meat/fish menu, which they had no problem accommodating.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ3hoLslDUhmhyJI7yvKep0HUr6lTqwGBIB4NZwT5gzm-Mx5rxelZZ1YZaBldRLLdaHv4BYu83vl1IG19Yb5NroHneqPtu0Rla6Fs9dvZTdyWog5k0ry1mCF7h4STJG9TeRIHeUdoI7T0b/s5120/IMG_20200919_191316.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ3hoLslDUhmhyJI7yvKep0HUr6lTqwGBIB4NZwT5gzm-Mx5rxelZZ1YZaBldRLLdaHv4BYu83vl1IG19Yb5NroHneqPtu0Rla6Fs9dvZTdyWog5k0ry1mCF7h4STJG9TeRIHeUdoI7T0b/s320/IMG_20200919_191316.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb4ERRfO9tAmGNHObrY-5R5sl5o17zXqUe2_a7uKt5f3YH6XVHeH9CpEnFa64o5sslBX8H2oE1-iu9xsTaZ9ABxZa1kc0X0wJMd0T-eGquwDLh4h4rPBpmQ9utK_qGLiOrHqbXIAn6IRdo/s3648/IMG_20200919_191504.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgb4ERRfO9tAmGNHObrY-5R5sl5o17zXqUe2_a7uKt5f3YH6XVHeH9CpEnFa64o5sslBX8H2oE1-iu9xsTaZ9ABxZa1kc0X0wJMd0T-eGquwDLh4h4rPBpmQ9utK_qGLiOrHqbXIAn6IRdo/s320/IMG_20200919_191504.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>The snack to start with was served quite fast on wood and stone plates.

First up, was ice cream served on plums and crumble. There was a nice combination of sweetness from the ice cream compared to the slightly sourish taste of the plumbs – but the crumble could maybe have been a bit crunchier. And to round off the meal – petit fours where we got slightly different ones as they took Nikki’s lactose intolerance into consideration. We had e.g. a small chocolate ball filled with a berry mix, a macaroon, a canelés with caramel filling etc.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsQ8pihu8bQ_0dnSMOxRsi55SOuIz-RIQCmDx1ktfXLSAYH7Ydyw_BHwI4nEiStCacBGzp_9Hx1HOuhDUY51NeBuq3Sq5oIovq5C2kVxTdVvuXveKm2HVEKNHh_pzC-XyRv9E4pr4j_Ptg/s3648/IMG_20200919_213656.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsQ8pihu8bQ_0dnSMOxRsi55SOuIz-RIQCmDx1ktfXLSAYH7Ydyw_BHwI4nEiStCacBGzp_9Hx1HOuhDUY51NeBuq3Sq5oIovq5C2kVxTdVvuXveKm2HVEKNHh_pzC-XyRv9E4pr4j_Ptg/s320/IMG_20200919_213656.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPgH634_C170hXr6wLwaS5Tiov17PUTXCkJ10iCtv7S5xmbPt3oAmc8pFdQiYI-vVzYIovt-CdfXwmF5dcP0r7kapp2Z5UEJ4M7GnLEaMQs1yYgR5afG9iOKJp9iKOJB9fpZRVCpQmMHT6/s3648/IMG_20200919_221636.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPgH634_C170hXr6wLwaS5Tiov17PUTXCkJ10iCtv7S5xmbPt3oAmc8pFdQiYI-vVzYIovt-CdfXwmF5dcP0r7kapp2Z5UEJ4M7GnLEaMQs1yYgR5afG9iOKJp9iKOJB9fpZRVCpQmMHT6/s320/IMG_20200919_221636.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p><b>All in all:</b> I would wholeheartedly say well done K2. Solid and attentive service; food was served at a pace that suited us; and the food and wine were presented in detail (and with a sprinkling of passion here and there). The place where we were seated was almost a bit too quiet, but I guess it will be a bit livelier when there are no corona restrictions anymore. In the end it is the food that matters and we enjoyed all the dishes on the menu! Next time we will try to be more adventurous and try the vegetarian menu and a drink pairing that includes the recommended beer/cocktails. K2 is well worth a visit and we look forward to being more adventurous on our next visit.</p><p><b>Facts: </b><br />Homepage: <a href="https://restaurantk2.no/" target="_blank">https://restaurantk2.no/</a><br />Location: Pedersgata 69 - see this <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/HWLUqEkzdG4Dufac9" target="_blank">Google map</a><br />Price: 850 kroner (90 USD) for 7 courses, 600 kroner (64 USD) for alcoholic drink pairing.</p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ2Ny7myHBIPQMGcbwTtTd2WLFOTUTkfIhEUlTG-qb8s4outaAHfblAS0fBo2a-WjglgajlPcki-77U5lu2zxUMKESJaGzAZoYp7xw39JP8DHfgIyGDLSbS3Rx4ze26Wxpca6NpenP4Fnj/s5120/IMG_20200527_181051.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="5120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ2Ny7myHBIPQMGcbwTtTd2WLFOTUTkfIhEUlTG-qb8s4outaAHfblAS0fBo2a-WjglgajlPcki-77U5lu2zxUMKESJaGzAZoYp7xw39JP8DHfgIyGDLSbS3Rx4ze26Wxpca6NpenP4Fnj/s320/IMG_20200527_181051.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLi3ZKzeq4GPBbdLX3gMWU0D94ZpNuLTlOR8hLic1FzRww6WLJFbY86vG0FyFUM-V-CWGUzFNlXPYzg-xEVNc2v3FwjUg9yMqbuyQNBv62is8x3FJGtzJhBnbBkSsJ0PXDTIUzTnPjW4aq/s5632/IMG_20200919_230855.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4224" data-original-width="5632" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLi3ZKzeq4GPBbdLX3gMWU0D94ZpNuLTlOR8hLic1FzRww6WLJFbY86vG0FyFUM-V-CWGUzFNlXPYzg-xEVNc2v3FwjUg9yMqbuyQNBv62is8x3FJGtzJhBnbBkSsJ0PXDTIUzTnPjW4aq/s320/IMG_20200919_230855.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /></div><br /><p></p><p><br /></p>Gardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02597245960589722753noreply@blogger.com0Pedersgata 69, 4013 Stavanger, Norway58.9696934 5.746166330.659459563821152 -29.4100837 87.27992723617885 40.9024163tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7316350420663665566.post-629932495767794082020-07-13T09:00:00.001+02:002020-07-13T09:00:04.625+02:00Evening menu at Italo<div>We have been to Italo a few times during daytime as they serve awesome coffee and make great gelato! (see my <a href="http://eatingoutinstavanger.blogspot.com/2019/12/italo-taste-of-italy-in-downtown.html" target="_blank">previous review of Italo here</a>). But they are also open in the evening and in weekends they usually serve a special menu where you get a cheese/prosciutto platter to start with, an Italian main and then a dessert based on some of their gelato and sorbet. We went there on a Friday night in July and I was happy to see that the coffee shop was more or less full, and it is great to see that people embrace the concept! On the menu this evening was the cheese/prosciutto platter to start with and then a Sicilian inspired pasta dish as main – rigatoni with ricotta, pesto and tomato. And for dessert – a brioche with gelato. Italo also have a small selection of wine and wine decided to have a Primitivo red wine from Puglia in Italy.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNbjbLO9R1RKBJl3HIA8-Jw4tMesKSeueUb2dN0-b8dO11D-w78Kf6TY9bpnUxE091HJDTT4bW_DIoTA9sXIBAx54yZB2Gwenuuo8XysfVA2NiR3AK9OSQ9kPrEZCwOhdejOMY7nhTNQw0/s3648/IMG_20200710_190738.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNbjbLO9R1RKBJl3HIA8-Jw4tMesKSeueUb2dN0-b8dO11D-w78Kf6TY9bpnUxE091HJDTT4bW_DIoTA9sXIBAx54yZB2Gwenuuo8XysfVA2NiR3AK9OSQ9kPrEZCwOhdejOMY7nhTNQw0/s320/IMG_20200710_190738.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1F_OwkNQEJThSzUXRbyQep3nmFjOaKZlQqQ8qCEG-5mNBVfNQEC1ZBukcLkB2EPgh1MgHrvhyxxr9BV_75OFXymcRpNQM9-quX0IDp-UToUk5Q3g0SpRhCJVuQga_PGZ6Yun0V6BO1lQE/s3648/IMG_20200710_193316.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1F_OwkNQEJThSzUXRbyQep3nmFjOaKZlQqQ8qCEG-5mNBVfNQEC1ZBukcLkB2EPgh1MgHrvhyxxr9BV_75OFXymcRpNQM9-quX0IDp-UToUk5Q3g0SpRhCJVuQga_PGZ6Yun0V6BO1lQE/s320/IMG_20200710_193316.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div>It did not take long before we got the starter and as you can see from the photo, there were some good olives, some fresh bread (the homemade focaccia was still warm), some onion jam, speck and salami and regular, saffron and truffle pecorino cheese as well as taleggio I love a platter like this as I love fresh bread and I love to taste different cheese and hams. </div><div><br /></div><div>We got our mains about 30 minutes after the starter was served. My rigatoni pasta was excellent with focus on the pasta. That is the beauty of a lot of the Italian dishes – there is not that many ingredients in the dishes but if the ingredients are good quality, it creates a great dish. Nikki decided to have a pasta arriminata which was a tomato-based pasta dish that was also excellent and I think I will have that next time. Both dishes came with some fresh bread on the side. And to round of the meal – a fresh baked brioche filled with vanilla and pistachio gelato – simple and delicious. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB1REas5ALN0_N7lmLzEabLED50S0E4SeSqCa0iOFGqNHuTjZz0YW0oKBdUAtwotWmlCrBddtgkU-_lpKKg9LpzWRRDChGb5CuhL49T99Y2u5-IqxlDtPzbbUm63pewDgPxHZzoSwCUhmN/s3648/IMG_20200710_193323.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB1REas5ALN0_N7lmLzEabLED50S0E4SeSqCa0iOFGqNHuTjZz0YW0oKBdUAtwotWmlCrBddtgkU-_lpKKg9LpzWRRDChGb5CuhL49T99Y2u5-IqxlDtPzbbUm63pewDgPxHZzoSwCUhmN/s320/IMG_20200710_193323.jpg" width="320" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmBQBbihh_dpNq9PgTdmtLyIakdTrbxuqr-yvkc2sf8r1hzxwfCxPxwImG3ivbLJgA_GD_-_bUV1exVCclTz_sW95tRbpzPyj0DPJQlkI6NCvs0oJrkN41HAlDyrxZusCb8ByV7JGJX4Gf/s3648/IMG_20200710_200308.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="3648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmBQBbihh_dpNq9PgTdmtLyIakdTrbxuqr-yvkc2sf8r1hzxwfCxPxwImG3ivbLJgA_GD_-_bUV1exVCclTz_sW95tRbpzPyj0DPJQlkI6NCvs0oJrkN41HAlDyrxZusCb8ByV7JGJX4Gf/s320/IMG_20200710_200308.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>All in all, an informal evening at a cozy Italian coffee shop.
