This Grünerløkka favourite brings some welcome east-side cool to an industrial space in Akker Brygge, not to mention some of the city's best tapas. The large tapas menu takes in small dishes like saffron and chorizo croquettes and meatballs, plates of well-sourced Spanish jamon (ham) and artisan manchego (Spanish cheese), and larger plates of grilled octopus or chicken.
There's a pared-down menu and toasted sandwiches at lunch.
