3. Colonized Kitchen

Maaemo became a culinary-world darling when the restaurant earned two Michelin stars in 2012, just over a year after opening. But seats are scarce, and prices sky high. Instead, head to the upscale Frogner neighborhood west of the city center where hidden in a cobblestone courtyard is Kolonihagen (Frognerveien 33; kolonihagenfrogner.no), a rustic restaurant with exposed brick walls and wooden beams. The restaurant, co-owned by a Maaemo founder, takes its name from Norwegian garden colonies — public urban allotments for gardening communities — and sources organic local ingredients from the same producers that supply Maaemo. The delicious results are simple, seasonal dishes, like wild mushroom soup with black truffles, and fire-grilled reindeer with Jerusalem artichokes, cranberries, sprouts and pickled turnips. At dinner, the ever-changing menu consists of seven courses (745 Norwegian kroner, or about $130 at 5.66 kroner to the dollar), from which diners may also order à la carte.

 

So it seems NY Times checked out my courtyard. And they liked it! These are my windows in the back, haha:

You sir, are a hero. Despite your similarity to DiCaprio.
