I've never been a morning person, so to get out of bed in order to spend a morning walking about didn't at first seem like the best idea. Oh, how wrong I was!
We met our guide, Yu-Mei, at Karl Johan. She was an incredibly likable person, and filled to the brim with knowledge and anecdotes about everything we walked by. It was like walking around with a group of friends, her bubbly personality being both comforting and very entertaining.
First stop was Fuglen, where we got a Norwegian pastry and a nice coffee to start us off. Information about the place, and also the history of coffee in Norway, almost made you feel like a proper local.
A short walk through a cemetery was nice, both for the stories but also to walk off that pastry. It was good, but so large!
Next stop was at Mathallen (I will return!!) for a proper tasting of six different coffees. Very educational!
Then for Krohgs where we had some open sandwiches that were so tasty and a perfect breakfast!
Just enough food to satisfy and just enough coffee for me not to get the jitters!
Loved the guide, loved the food, loved the coffee. A perfect 10!
