AMUNDSEN BRYGGERI & SPISERI The story starts with three experienced restaurateurs, who together had a common desire to open a central venue in the capital of Norway. They wanted a meeting place for everyone, to share our wonderful culture, drink good brew, along with appropriate dishes from the best ingredients served in a casual and warm environment. The premises, in the neighborhood with the National Theatre and City Hall, changed owners in November 2010. After a major effort, and with dozens of craftsmen from both home and abroad at work day and night, Amundsen Brewery & Restaurant opened in February 2011. From their kitchen, you can choose between warm and cold dishes, made â&#x20AC;&#x2039;â&#x20AC;&#x2039;from the best ingredients and craftsmanship from local producers. The chefs follow the seasons,combining national and international menus, with dishes suitable for both brew and distillate.
