Illegal Burger has done some good PR. After having it pop up on my radar several times, via…read moredifferent style blogs, I bookmarked it for my next trip to Oslo. When that trip came I found it located a few steps from my hotel (lucky me)!
They do an excellent drippy, juicy burger that's packed with flavor and not overcooked. The accompanying potato wedges are nice but may not satiate if you've been craving fries. Aioli lovers will be pleased with their offering.
Skip the beer unless it's a label you recognise. Trying to be adventurous, I tried the Herslev Økologisk Hvedeøl and found it uncomfortably bubbly. I dined here with a serious beer drinker and it took him the entire length of the meal to uncomfortably stomach one bottle.
But beyond the beer, Illegal Burger's a good bet.
