The Spis take
Hidden up a stair above a pizzeria in a red, low-ceilinged old brothel space, ex-Maaemo chef Carlos De Medeiros braids Portugal into Norwegian skrei and reindeer for a star-winning, daily-changing menu.
People say
Bar Amour is a one-Michelin-star spot (awarded ~18 months after opening) hidden on an upper floor above the Tranen cafe, run by ex-Maaemo chef Carlos De Medeiros. The draw is a tightly intimate, theatrical room — with nods to the building's former life as a brothel — and a long tasting menu fusing Norwegian produce (skrei, reindeer) with the chef's Portuguese roots, paired exclusively with Portuguese and Norwegian wines. Diners consistently highlight the refined cooking, charismatic service and exceptional pairings; the trade-off is its very small capacity and exclusivity.
