I found this place by luck while researching Oslo online. This is quite a hidden gem in a small…read moreneighborhood close to the center. The interior when you walk in is spacious yet cozy. Pillows and throws on love seats that line the walls. Patterned rugs on the floors. Very quaint and adorable. There are a few menu items that you can order by themselves (like a normal restaurant), but the main event at this place are the Mediterranean "Tapas". They call them "mezah". The menu is only in Norwegian, but from what I understood, you can choose any combination of Mezah, each costing 40 nok, or have the chef choose 6 for you, and they will cost 160 nok for vegetarian or 180 nok for meat and vegetarian (so you save quite a bit). This combo comes with pita and feeds one (hungry) person. My boyfriend and I decided to each order one, so we got quite the variation of Mezah's to try. Some were very good, others not so much. The Bulgur, Tsatsiki, Kyllingvinger (chicken wings) and Kjøtboller (meatballs) were our favorites. We did not like the Baba Ganosh or the Squash, but maybe that's just our aversion to "weird vegetables" as we like to call them haha. Everything else was good. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes to try new things, is hungry, and is in the mood for Mediterranean/ Turkish/ middle eastern food. It might be a little pricey, but definitely worth trying a lot of different dishes.

We kind of knew the moment we walked in that we were in for a treat. The place was bustling, almost…read moreevery table was full of happy folk eating, chatting and generally enjoying the place. I was worried that it was a reservations-only kind of place as Jessheim is a small town, but we were greeted and ushered-in in no time. The server seated us with a smile and came with water and provided us with English menus. I usually prefer the local menu (translation is easy with Google!) but we had just arrived at the airport and the English menu looked adequately comprehensive. A bit of a debate, but we ended up with 2 dishes to share between 2 very jet-lagged diners. The Monk Fish was fabulous but small. A small fillet of monk fish was on a bed of an unctuous, umami sauce of something I couldn't adequately identify. May be crab and lobster? Garnished with chunks of zucchini and mushrooms and a small sprinkling of little shrimp. A wedge of juicy lemon and a scoop of rice. I first tried a bite of the fish naked, and it tasted just-caught fresh and perfectly cooked. The source and a little lemon elevated it to perfection. Encountering a new restaurant, I will go for the fish as one of my 'acid tests' and the chef at Mirabel sailed through with flying colors! Even the rice was perfection. Not the way Chinese rice would have been cooked, but the perfect texture to soak in the source and combine as an accompaniment to all the elements of the dish. The second dish we shared was the Bianchi Quattro Formaggii pizza. It looked perfect when it arrived, and I would say was the best pizza I've eaten in the past year (and I've eaten a lot of pizza!) The cheeses were perfectly² blended and a drizzle of honey over the top before serving turned it into perfection. The salty, pungent cheese complemented by the sweet tang of honey. With pizza, the crust matters, and there was barely enough crust left to mop up all the remnants of the monk fish sauce. What a perfect first meal in Norway!!

But first you gotta climb the steep stair up to the main area where you are greeted by a bar-look-alike counter. On the board, you see the summary of the menu, food on the left and drinks on the right. For detailed menu, grab the menu on the counter. On the left you will find an area with table & chairs where you can sit down. We tried the Hummus & Falafel 163kr and Hummus & Chicken 173kr plates. You will get a plate of hummus and another plate of pita, corn chips, beets salad & few other condiments. The hummus are not bad, a little bland & dry for my taste, I do prefer it to be a little more garlicky. As for the falafel, again, it was OK with lack of flavor & not very crunchy outside. As for the roasted chicken, it was decent & can get a little dry when dip with the pita. That being said, for the price, it really fills you up and I really liked the ambiance. Remind me of a hippy hangout spot with arts, photos on the walls and few knick-knacks for decor.
