Pingvinen (the penguin) is where I send all my guests who want to eat Norwegian food. This nice bar/reataurant serves traditional Norwegian food with a twist. I am particularly fond of their fish dishes.

This is the home of the violin virtuoso Ole Bull on the island Lysekloster turned in to a museum.
It takes some traveling getting there without a car, but it is a perfect little getaway with a cute boat shuttle and a café on the island. Take the Light city rail (Bybanen) to Lagunen and change to buss 62 to "Buena kai" (OBS! No busses on Sunday! Here are the time table: https://www.skyss.no/globalassets/bussruter/sommerruter-2017/fana-ytrebygda-og-os/linje_62.pdf)

Sightseeing
If you have read anything about Bergen before you came here you heard about Bryggen. These are the only Hanseatic buildings left in the world. A stoll along the harbour here is nice, make sure you also walk in between the houses and have a look. There are several Hanseatic museums along the harbour as well.

This church is a beutiful example of the very unique medeaval building style of wooden churches in Norway. The original church was burned down in vandalism, but the remake is equally beautiful!
You can easily get there with the Light city rail (Byanen) or you can go there by bike. I did that when I went to see it.
