Dining out

Postby Norway Joe » Mon Jul 05, 2021 12:19 pm

Wife and I went downtown for a walk and something to eat. There's a new part of the city that's developing along the water. A new Beach is established which opened two days ago. Just next to the Opera and outside the new Munch museum.

Lots of Restaurants along the water. Entire city's oceanfront has been developed from a container harbor and shipyard into a promenade with restaurants, apartments and activities. 6 miles long. Very nice

Found an Italian restaurant and we both opted for pasta in a whitewine-chili- sauce, shrimps, with coldwater shrimps, crawfish, scampi and the one on top that I don't know what is called in English.
Tasted delicious. Restaurants have been mostly closed since Christmas but opened a couple of weeks ago.

A few pictures of the food and from the Opera

Still not able to post pictures the normal way.

In my opinion, a great place to spend your leisure time on weekends or evenings. Still, everyone is already tired of constant isolation, people want to breathe fresh air, eat delicious dishes and spend everything in society.

Have to clean it yourself.

Found out what it's called. It's called Norway lobster. Main living area is parts of the cold north Atlantic ocean along our coast. By many considered the world's best shellfish. I guess many here will disagree. :laughing7:

Can't be compared with freshwater crawfish or lobster.

I’ve always seen them called langoustine. Hard to get in the states as they spoil quickly once out of the water.
