Wines and dessert were as impactful as the food. It was a beautiful rainy evening, and it added an extra dimension to the entire expedition experience, allowing for some additional time indoors to demolish the rather outstanding lineup of wines.

Wines and dessert were as impactful as the food. It was a beautiful rainy evening, and it added an extra dimension to the entire expedition experience, allowing for some additional time indoors to demolish the rather outstanding lineup of wines. Malm and Melder was superb as a dessert and the pickled spruce shoot tartlet was also excellent. Let's not forget the pre-dining experience which was well-produced and had enough content to set the tone of what was to come!

The 1834 Madeira was mind-blowing, and DRC GE was steps above the CC for me...

鮨おおが
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my favourite places for tuna. Varying cuts of chuutoro ranging from setoro, chiaigishi and senaka are topped onto generous globs of shari. Some would argue this nigiri is on the larger side of things but I find the overall satisfaction to be outstanding. Well seasoned neta and a dash of deep,... More

Some would argue this nigiri is on the larger side of things but I find the overall satisfaction to be outstanding. Well seasoned neta and a dash of deep, intense nikiri to finish off the art piece. His otsumami is also up there, and I would rate this above most tuna treatment in Tokyo.

One or the highlights of this trip. Helmed by a couple of guys who worked at some well known places previously, this restaurant showcases dishes without any bells and whistles, instead focusing on sheer quality and flavours. Every single dish was delicious, focused and I guess if there was a top notch izakaya on Oslo, this would be it. Cool music vibes and awesome wines to match... this place hit the spot in all fronts. Max boom!

For the pièce de resistance, we took a long journey to Iris. A highly anticipated visit, this place is all about experience, sustainability and quality. I normally have low expectations for these restaurants as they often focus on gimmicks rather than substance. Iris defies expectations by focusing on the details and execution. Outstanding local produce, pretty much all sourced from the surrounding area to showcase the diversity that can be found here. Not shy on flavours, each dish was as good as the last.. top notch service from all and really awesome dishes. The entire 6 hours or so we spent there was purposeful and memorable, with each step adding to the previous one. Max Boom!

Started the Norway trip with Hyde, based in the same shop that housed the legendary Pjoltergeist a few years back.. course menu dining with a large number of Japanese inspirations with almost each dish featuring some variation of a Japanese ingredient. Solid presentation and execution starting with some discrete flavours before showcasing ingredient driven dishes. Great, bar-esque vibe with a cool wine list to match, with great somm recs.

One of my favourite Chinese restaurants in Tokyo amongst a sea of mediocrity. Solid, bold flavours that contrasts against the chef's calm demeanour, and whilst this sits on the more modest Japanese-style Chinese cuisine, there are few other places that reach this level in Tokyo. Awesome wok hei for the dishes... More

Following the footsteps of its main shop down in Osaka, this place has levelled up every time I've gone for a bite. Top level chouchin as always and with just an extra touch of whoomf when the big boss is in the house. Piping hot temperatures and awesome texture for every single piece.

After going here, there are pretty much no reasons to eat hamaguri at any other place.

After going here, there are pretty much no reasons to eat hamaguri at any other place. Perhaps there is something in the waters around Kuwana, but this time around, these beasts are the summer ones where they grow rather large. The flavours and balance are almost indescribable, like a series of umami bombs that detonate with each bite and scarfed down with some of its own clam jus. Not chewy, not too plump, and not too clammy... everything was just right. This is coming from someone who doesn't really like hamaguri to start with.. this is the clam singularity.
