It's been awhile since I wrote about a restaurant visit, but this week I had such a 'Five Spoon' dining experience, I want to share it with you.
I was visiting Fredrikstad, one of the oldest towns in here in Norway, I was there by myself, and wanted to visit the restaurant Fabel, since I had heard great things about it. 
The first contact with any business is so important to how the rest of the event goes and how the atmosphere will be, and honestly, how much money you'll want to spend in that establishment. I've talked about this with my friends before, how some restaurants make you feel awkward if you go dine by yourself. I'm not talking about a quick lunch, but a nice dinner. 
I have experienced this myself as well before, but at Fabel from the first moment I made a contact with the staff, I felt welcomed, comfortable, and enjoyed my time there immensely. I wish more restaurants would realize the potential of solo eating clients also at dinner time.

The pasta sauce had layers of piquant tastes in it, I cleaned my bowl with the sourdough bread I was served, didn't want to waste a drop. 
The pork neck melted in my mouth and the soft, well-rounded nuances of the dish, all working smoothly together was such a pleasure. The sweet potato fries was on the salty side and balanced the sweetness of the pork nicely.
The dessert - it was like the summer sun, so cheerful, lovely, and refreshing, absolutely loved the distinctions of the different fruits.
