Pop Quiz: Oslo tastes like a) Lutefisk; b) Reindeer; c) Raisin buns; d) Um, you're
weird a city doesn't taste of anything. There's no absolute right answer,
but I'd choose c). Every city has its own flavor, and I can't think about Norway's
thousand-year-old, Viking-founded capital (pop. 515,000) without recalling the
flavor of its traditional raisin buns warm puffs of barely cinnamony bread
punctuated by sweet morsels of fruit.
