    Poke Bowl Oslo - Spicy tuna bowl

    I jumped for joy when I found out a poke place had opened up in Oslo. Poke is Hawaiian, so the idea…read moreof getting it in Norway is crazy! It makes sense though, Norway having access to such tasty fish that a poke place would open up. The staff at the Pacific Poke truck is super nice and makes up delicious poke bowls. I wouldn't call them traditional as far as Hawaiian standards, they definitely have a Norwegian spin. That being said they are quite excellent and addicting. My favorite is the Spicy taco one... Which isn't really a taco, but the combo of fish, tortilla chips, rice, spicy sauce etc is bomb! They have a punch card, so it's definitely a spot we will visit often, dare I say at least once a week or possibly more!

    The next biggest food trend is here in Norway...poke bowls! Poke is the Hawaiian cousin of sashimi…read moreand has been gaining popularity in the US in the last several years. I personally am a poke fan way before it was fashionable. Poke bowl in Aker Brygge is perhaps the first to introduce poke to the Norwegian market. There were various style of poke using either salmon or tuna. Being a traditionalist, I chose the spicy shoyu tuna. The tuna was nice and firm. Rice was proper short grain rice used for sushi. The spicy shoyu sauce was quite flavorable and really carried the dish. The bowl also had a sour element using pickled onions and wakame salad. My only negative comments would be that the poke was not marinated in shoyu. This is what seperates Hawaiian poke from mainstream poke sold in the US. The fish should have taken in all of the shoyu flavor, but the shoyu rather was added after when serving. The other is price. For the amount I paid for my bowl, I would have expected more tuna and rice. Then again this is Oslo and food will cost you an arm and a leg! Other than that, Poke Bowl is a great addition to the food scene in Oslo and would recommend to anybody wanting to have an intro to Hawaiian delicacy.

    We'd enjoyed a series of great Nordic-style meals on our trip to Copenhagen and then Oslo. But, on…read moreour last night with our granddaughter in Oslo, we craved a change from all those delicious steamed-in-cream muscles, tasty baked salmon and classic smoresbords. Izakaya fit the bill. In fact, it may have ended up being the best meal of our week-long trip. Yes, as you've read and can see from other Yelpers' photos, it's teeny tiny inside. But, when you get lucky and get seated, it's nice and cozy. You certainly aren't merely one 2-top in a long boring row of tables that's for sure. There's no sign outside but because it has a distinctive look on the exterior (see photos of the heavy grillwork on the windows) you really can't miss it. A Yelper's description of 'Japanese tapas' is right on the mark, tho this is a bit of mixed metaphor. Dishes (especially the last two below) are relatively small. Maybe four dishes will do for two people but you'll likely end up as we three did: wanting a bit more. We started with the Gyoza. Definitely delicious and served piping hot. Next was Bang Bang Ji - shredded chicken, julienned cucumber, and a spicy sauce. Good and a nice prelude to the Mazemen. Our hands-down favorite of the night was the Mazemen, broth-less ramen with a delicious sauce, oil, and toppings. Especially delicious with the egg (poached?) mixed in. Had we immediately ordered another three more bowls of this wonderfully tasty dish I doubt if there'd have been much of an objection! Okonomiyaki - a savory pancake. Good. We didn't want to leave without a bit more. So, we ordered the Senmaizuke, pickled turnip and chili with a sweet, tangy vinegar marinade, and the Shiitake no fukumeni, mushrooms simmered in a sweet and savory broth. Both of these relatively small dishes were quite delicious - but really would have tasted best as early appetizers. The Kirin beer really hit the spot. Service was quick and efficient. Pacing was fine with no rush despite the line that had formed in the little foyer. YELPER HINT: if you're stuck in the line but thirsty, you can go on in and stand at a small (2 ft. wide) open section of the bar and order/pay for beers (not sure about their cocktails) and then re-take your place in line. In short, Izakaya could - and likely will - provide your tastiest, most interesting and perhaps even your most delicious meal in wonderful Oslo.

    It was closed for the summer when I went there in late July to find some dinner. A bit hard to find…read morebut never got a chance to eat there.
