citylikeyou — Kanskje Kommer Kongen

Oslo / Cafe

The owners of the very popular and charming cafe Liebling are these days opening a second place around the corner. It´s named after a popular children’s song, Kanskje kommer kongen ( Maybe the king will come). Lovely as they are, they want to unite the city’s young population with the elderly by running a cafe inside a retirement home. What´s not to like, I think the king should come!

Oslo / Street Art

Is a fantastic little street in the middle of town. Its colourful little workers cottages (from the late 18th and early 19th century) really stand out from the rest of Oslo’s architecture. A cute, warm and cozy street that makes me happy.

Oslo / Restaurant

The Ekeberg restaurant is located on the Ekeberg hill and offers a great view of the Oslofjord and great food. Not the cheapest place in Oslo, but the view and the delicious food are worth the price!

Oslo / Area

Grünerløkka is a part of Oslo where you find lots of small cafes, restaurants and bars. This area is also a popular place for shopping. You find a lot of vintage and second hand shops here. Grünerløkka has a few parks which are perfect for barbequing with your friends during the summer.

Oslo / Music Venue

When you’re in Oslo, you can’t miss the Opera. Here you are allowed to walk on the roof and look at the views and smell the ocean. At summer time you can even catch an outdoor concert on the top of the roof.

Oslo / Shop

Strangest second hand store in Oslo, run by two blind elderly ladies, and only open on Mondays and Thursdays. The store is tiny and crammed, you can do a scoop, but the prices are fairy unpredictable, the ladies have a very independent pricing-system.
