Vippa - The Taste of Travel

​Vippa is the brand new street food market in Oslo. And just to get it out of the way: This is going to be a smash hit!

​Located in what is the prime rib of Oslo’s waterfront, Vippa is off to a good start. The concept is simple. Food stalls from all over the world, a bar that holds liquids and plenty of informal seating options, both indoors and outdoors. This concept is copy-paste from the famous Copenhagen Street Food in Papirøen, Copenhagen.
A rustic, former sugar storing hangar, on pier 40 serves as location for the concept.

So far there are nine food stalls and one drink booth. More will come.

Food options

​Duck It!
Well, they serve duck.. The slow roasted and pulled kind. And fries. Duck comes in different dishes, but the most popular is the burger. 

​Raketten
This is a hot dog stand from northern-Norway. Tromsø, to be more precise. The only Norwegian joint. They do currywürst and more plain stuff, in buns with toppings. Sausages made of reindeer, beef and pork.

​Mamma Pizza
Italian guy from Bologna serves up his childhood in this colorful stand. Pizza comes in different styles and shapes. From classic thin crust, to more home style rustic twists.

​Lisa’s
Veggie place with a heart for Vietnam. Noodle soups, spring rolls, phó and banh mi.

​Kinabolle
Dumplings; the fried kind. They make it with pork and with spinach. 
Killer name :)

​Tunco
Wok with inspirations from Thailand and Vietnam. Hot stuff, served in classic packages. They do smoothies as well.

​Bowls by Trio
It’s food in bowls, basically. Sushi, acai, umami and the Korean bibimbap. 

​Aleppo Bahebek
Middle Eastern Food. Shawarma, falafel and tabbouleh come in different styles in this place. Chéf makes the food like he used to do when he was doing it in Aleppo.

​Hot Hot Harmonica
Chili Con Carne, served with rice or nachos. Hot and cool sauces to go with it.

Most dishes cost around 100Nkr/€10

There's one drink stall. Beers, wine, sodas etc. Whatever you desire. There is a nice seating option on the outside, with a lot of potensial if the summer sun delivers.This will be packed on warm days.

Were Oslo first proper food market, Mathallen in Grünerløkka, ended up being a hybrid between dinning/shopping – Vippa is clear: EAT – DRINK – ENJOY
Don’t get me wrong, Mathallen is still great (best butcher – best fish shop in Oslo), but they set out to be a market for great produce and ended up being a collection of eateries. Most people who came to Mathallen was looking for what Vippa now offers.

Next year they will open a roof section as well. Vegetable garden and more seats. Pretty cool.
