Mother India Bislett — Restaurant in Oslo

Fantastic reunion with an old favourite friend and restaurant! Small and cozy, dark and some would say standard interior, but hides a real gem of a restaurant with traditional Indian cuisine and drinks. My long time ex colleague and friend and I are both familiar with hot Indian food - him a bit more daring than me, so we both had the Rogen Josh (lamb) with different strength - hot and madras.

I would’ve taken pictures of the food, but was so eager to dive in there was nothing left to take a picture of. Hope a pic of the menu helps as we couldn’t find one online....
