The little red cottage |
Sandakerveien 2 Oslo Norway +47 93 00 88 55 http://www.honselovisashus.no |
According to local folklore the cottage is believed to have been the home of Hønse Lovisa, a courageous and generous woman from the play 'The Child' written by Oskar Braaten in 1911. Hønse Lovisa was characterized as a matriarch, who took it upon herself to care for the children of women who went to work in the factories that surround the river. It is now run by a local art collective who exhibit their work inside the cottage. It is a perfect place to rest your legs and buy a tasty snack, before continuing your journey along the Akerselva River. -Rosie Collyer Review © 2007, Wcities |

Café Tamara is in Oslo's trendiest neighborhood, Grünerløkka. Founded in 1990, Tamara has managed to survive through rapidly shifting trends. Tamara can seat 70 people on two floors. Local bands perform on the stage upstairs on Fridays; most of them play rock and acoustic music. Upstairs, you will also find a gallery with exhibitions by well-known and lesser-known artists. On Fridays, this concert venue is frequently visited by students (aged over 20). The bar downstairs is a popular hangout for friends from the neighborhood, for artists and intellectuals (aged 20-40). Enjoy a glass of red wine in front of the fireplace. Fully licensed. The Singhalese food is worth a try. Review © 2007, Wcities |
