I chose Cafe Engebret because I wanted to have a more traditional Norwegian meal than the gastronomic Michelin-starred set menu places that abound in Oslo now. The atmosphere inside is reminiscent of entering an old German restaurant, with dark wood and white tablecloths in a homey style. We were greeted very warmly upon entering and led to a table that the hostess explained was the favorite of the first female prime minister. (Nice to explain that bit of history.)
