I came here with 2 of my friends for a small, intimate Julebord about a week and a half ago. We…read morepre-ordered the Christmas menu, and we were seated on time, no complaints about the food whatsoever. The only thing is that the service was not great. The staff seemed shy/unexperienced/tired. They served us aperitifs and then took away our drink menu and never offered us wine with our meal, which we thought was a bit weird. Secondly, there wasn't much enthusiasm with the staff, they seemed like robots, systematically placing food on our table, and very brief and soft spoken description about what we were eating. Maybe it's because it's Christmas season, but still... I never had an experience like this at Sudøst or Dinner and those places are equally as busy all year round.

I had previously had take away sushi from Tatakii and been less than impressed with the quality of…read morethe maki. Eating in house, however, proved a much better experience. The service was exeptionally friendly and attentive. We started off with two sashimi dishes - salmon with grapefruit and ponzu sauce was fresh and perfectly balanced, and the tun tartare with coriander cream on wonton crackers was so good that we had to order another serving of it. After the sashimi, we had two types of maki - the tempura lobster maki, and the spicy tuna. Both were delicious and quite rich, with a generous amount of very nice spicy mayo. The spicy tuna maki was made with tarragon and avocado, which was a very nice and aromatic combo. Tatakii could have had more wines by the glass, but the ones the have are very good. Alongside the food, we had a lovely glass of riesling from the Pfalz region, which worked very well.

This place really creeps up on you and knocks you for six. The unassuming, modest interior belies a…read moreculinary experience out of the ordinary. We all ordered the large set menu to get the full Monty. Unlike a lot of places there was no filler dish at the end, if you know what I mean. (Nodee serve loads of small dishes and you're always wanting more until the end when a mountain of Peking duck arrives) where these guys give you slightly more each time, just enough to keep you wanting more but not leaving you ravenous. This has also to do with the pacing, with Japanese tempo: four ultra tasty snacks in quick succession (chili cheese balls blew me away even though the oyster snacky things that came first would have been at home in a 3* restaurant) followed by four more dishes at a leisurely pace. These included the craziest langoustine ever (gratinert and the head and claws blowtorched in a wooden wine box with a glass lid!) Some very interesting Japanese beers to choose from and a comprehensive wine list that we didn't look at. Very friendly attentive service too. Book before it gets too popular - this place is going to rock Oslo for a while!

Difficult to find, at least for the Oslo taxi drivers (I've had at least two drivers who had never…read moreheard of the restaurant, nor could they find the address). Still, the place is very popular, and a reservation is recommended. Plah is modern style, Norwegian Thai food at its best, even though its best has probably past the BBD. Choose between à la carte (starters 105-145 NOK, mail courses 235-275 NOK), or opt for a 5 or 8 course tasting menu (495/545 NOK). A third option is to try some of the Thai style "tapas", or Street Food as they are called here, priced around 50-70 NOK per serving. The menu is constantly changing, as it should be, but it is unfortunate that the "signature dish" (in my book), Svineskank (knuckle of pork), has been deleted from the menu. Oysters Naturel, "Hoi Nang Rom" is good, but just plain lemon works better with oysters than sweet chili sauce. Why complicate a winning concept? The pork neck, or svinenakke (as a poor substitute for svineskank), is decent, but not extraordinary. All in all, good food, but not the best Asian in Scandinavia, or probably not even in town, and the price - 595 NOK/81 EUR, plus tip for starter and main, including two glasses of wine - is, as pretty much everything in Oslo, nothing less than outrageous.
