1. Eating guide to Oslo's Majorstuen
Anyone with more than a passing moment in Norway will be fully aware of the expense this country demands. Recently Oslo was rated the most expensive city in the world in 2006, ending a 14 year reign by Tokyo, and according to the Canadian bank UBS, still holds that distinction. Welcome to Schuyler's eating on the cheap in Oslo, an ongoing series. Today, we look at a couple of places in Majorstuen, a major thoroughfare for all public transportation, shopping central, and a stone's throw away from Nationaltheatret.
