Modeled after great European food markets, Olso’s Mathallen opened in 2012 in the up-and-coming Vulkan, a small enclave that was built up in the mid-2010s along the Akerselva river and today is home to a few hotels and restaurants. But the development’s most enticing tenant is Mathallen, a soaring, two-story food hall with vendors hawking gourmet treats from small-scale Norwegian producers, casual restaurants serving everything from Spanish tapas to crêpes and a cooking school on the upper level. Visitors shopping in the nearby Grunneløkka should stop in for some culinary souvenirs or a meal at Hitchhiker (Vulkan 5; 47-954-51-466), the second-floor restaurant with a themed menu (Asian fusion, Jamaican) that changes weekly.
