                <description><![CDATA[Another of Oslo's fine seafood restaurants. The dishes are very modern and imaginative, with both a la carte and set menus created to showcase the best of what's on offer. Slightly pricey, but not extortionate like many places in Oslo offering similar quality.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[One of the very best seafood restaurants in Oslo, Lofoten is a popular choice for couples and businessmen who want to impress clients. The slightly formal atmosphere doesn't detract from the truly delicious food; for me, this is michelin star quality without quite the same level of fuss and expense. It also provides a wonderful view of the harbour.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Theatre ship with bed and breakfast facilities and bar. Totally unexpected cross cultural place to stay. Tone Holmen, one of the owners, is a great cook and speaks perfect English and Spanish, the ambience is terrific and the price of a bed for the night is reasonable for Oslo. The beer isn't very expensive either. The fjord is usually calm and it's a delightful experience to sit and look out over the sea while enjoying a cool lager and listening to some Afro-Caribbean music. Very near the main shopping centre, kindly hosts and lovely views.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A shopping centre with quality outlets and collection of restaurants down by the sea. Try Sorgenfri or Bacalao for reasonably cheap food. There's also TGI Fridays and McDonalds for more mundane fare. Worth a look.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Oslo’s quirkiest restaurant, with game trophies hanging next to paintings left as payment by penniless artists. The bar is also a fab place to round off a night out – it’s a favourite for people who’ve just banqueted at the nearby royal palace. Main courses such as reindeer cakes or catfish are 142 and 225 kroner respectively.]]></description>

At less than half the price of many competitors, it can't be recommended highly enough.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[“A culinary experience” in the words of a friend, who still raves about his time at the two Michelin-star-rated restaurant. Dishes are French with a Norwegian twist, the service is attentive and the wonderful wine selection helps cushion the blow when the bill comes. A three-course menu is 680 kroner, but if you want to blow your mortgage, go for the full 1,250 kroner menu. Prices do not include wine.]]></description>
