The fact that you ordered such an amazing bottle of champagne in honor of the sommelier‘s birthday and invited her to a glass is just awesome. That one really moved me. If I owned a star restaurant (or any kind of restaurant, for that matter), I would love to have you as a guest, Alexander.

Thank you for allowing most of us, which by definition are "regular" people, to at least have an idea of what it may feel to be in such spectacular places, enjoying such exquisite tastes and feelings. These high-end restaurants seem like a whole other world inside our shared planet.

@@markmower6507 Haha this cracked me up. I love the first alien movie! I also love fine dining. I luckily have not once had a dish that looked like something from that movie ;-). For reference, I dine at a 1 or 2 start michelin star restaurant 1 or 2 times a year. You do have to truly appreciate food and be a bit of a nutcase to spend that much on "just" food. I understand how for many people, it wouldn't be worth it. But what this level of dining is about, goes far beyond food. It's the sum of all things that makes it so unique. To me, it's a night that makes me feel special. Surprises me with new flavors and new experiences. It is an experience so far outside of my "normal" that it is well worth the price.

Your videos are such a breath of fresh air in KZread. Your style, videography and knowledge are incredible. Thank your for creating content! ♥

You always show such respect, kindness, and appreciation, to all the wonderful, hard-working staff who make these restaurants so magnificent. This time you truly outdid yourself, and it was so rhapsodic it may have brought a tear or two to my eyes, ordering such a great bottle of champagne and toasting the sommelier who works so hard and considers it the best place to be on her birthday. You are a great man. Thank you for doing what you do.

Wow! This may be my favorite looking restaurant you’ve done yet. Even amongst other 3 star restaurants, Maaemo seems to be a step above them.

I passed by the restaurant while visiting Oslo, and will definitely try it when I go back in the near future. The calm atmosphere and the lovely people working there craetes an amazing experience and a worthwhile representation of this beautiful Nordic country.

Thank you again Alexander. for another great video. soo sweet of you to include the sommelier and toast on her birthdays. I got abit emotional.

Seriously, I've been waiting for a video about maaemo. My wife and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary here. It was our first experience of fine dining. Absolutely magical experience.

They way you not only honor the food, nor the chefs alone, but also the sommelier's is such a pleasent surprise every single time and it brings me so much joy to see you do so. What a delicious looking menue, amazing atmosphere and wonderfull people. Again, more than well done episode and thank you for sharing your experiences with us!

Rapidly becoming my favourite channel. Our host’s commitment to excellence, love of creativity and rejection of pretension, all delivered with clarity, wit and charm is a revelation!

Oh wow, truly a kindhearted you are Mister! It warms my heart for what you did to the Sommelier! Definitely my favorite episode so far!

Amazing content as always. One BIG upgrade I have noticed and deeply appreciate is the quality of the on-site videos of the food and place. Makes my experience of the video that much more enjoyable and immersive. The way these videos keep improving, I might as well start calling you Alexander the Best! ;)

To see my country on this channel not one, but TWO times brings joy to my heart.

This was an epic episode Alex! Loved the ending with the sommelier, it really blew my mind. Shows you’re not only a great businessman but also a great person. Keep it up! Hope to see you one day in Greece!

I love how these videos are progressing, we're getting to see so much more of the experience with you giving more detailed descriptions of the full experience. Keep up the great work

Amazing video, once again Alexander. Love to see the personal aspect of the chef and the staff shine through in this one. Chapeau!

Great vibes and Good man yourself Alexander for getting such a rare wine for celebration of Sommeliers birthday :)

I absolutely love the fancy tools made out of glass they use to pour the wine into your glass. The different shapes used for every single wine are simply works of art and fit the restaurants style in an excellent way. Truly Amazing!

Your channel is the best. Simply, the best. Looking forward to all that’s to come!

Amazing, you transmit the experience in such a pleasant way that I almost feel being in the dinner. Thanks for sharing those experiences!

Yet another wonderful video. Thank you for sharing your experience!

appreciate all the comments about the details in the plates and utensils! plus the fun fact about the types of oysters really helps!

Your video quality keeps amazing me, straight to the point high quality informative and entertaining videos. 💯

Man oh Man, what a great reviews you do. Every time I see one, I think this must be your best! But then comes another, and another! Love it.

Your enthusiasm is beyond any imaginable limit. Thank you for showing us the art of dining in these types of restaurants.

Just wow. Seeing how these amazing artists from one Michelin rated resto to the next create different levels of Perfection is extremely awe inspiring.

This is the best food channel on youtube! I am addicted, look forward to every single release now. You have inspired me to travel and experience some of these amazing places. I ate at my first 3 Star Michelin restaurant last year in Paris (Le Cinq) , my first time ever eating at a Michelin restaurant and it was unbelievable. I did not know food could taste that good... it was a lot of money for me and something I could not do often, but it was worth every penny for the once in a life time experience. Your videos have got me saving for my next food trip!

Hands down one of your best videos. Keep them coming!

Love the new section on giving general information where you had a quick rundown on the different types of oysters. Keep it up!

Some of the vessels they were serving the wine from in this video were quite unique. I especially love that one with the really long neck so she didn’t have to lean across the table. Lol

Great Video as always I'm happy to say I was a fan early on I'm happy to see how the channel has grown in the last few months

Top notch video as always. Thanks a lot Alexander

Fantastic work again Alex. Love the channel

Great to see your channel growing, you're such a good presenter, would be interesting to see some Short videos of local Street food in your travels as well.

Thank you boss for the quick and educational introduction of different types of oysters. My curiosity of the world of fine dining is sated by your videos and I learn how to truly critique food

Had to wait to see this one after my visit on friday. Magical experience, Fantastic video 🥳

Absolutely fantastic review and restaurant and menu! Thanks! :) .

i have been watching this restaurants evolution since it opened and it never ceases to amaze me how beautiful their work is. it is just stunning really. another great episode Al. Thank You!

Dude I wait every week for your videos !

Great video and it is such a classy gesture to order a great bottle of champagne to celebrate the sommelier's birthday with the restaurant staff!

Your very knowledgeable of food, wine and service. I appreciate that you don't let even small mistakes slip by your watchful eye (still water vs sparkling).

That was a lovely moment buying the champagne for you to share with the sommelier’s for her birthday!❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Nice touch there by honouring the sommelier on her birthday..love your humanistic approach to your video. Love love love it. Great intro with slight humour ( haha..Hell). Great editing. Focus on the food , chef and the support staff..amazing. look forward to more awesome videos by u and your team. Keep it up! szép munka!!!  Verified Sea

This community must be one of the most positive I've ever seen, all the comments are just too cute. Speaks volumes about the kind of people you're videos attract, Another banger as always Alexander, thanks for the excellent content!

incredible alexander, this video felt so special and personal

I always love to see Chateau D'Yquem on a tasting menu, and a dessert course pairing is perfect. The Sommelier has great taste, and 2016 is a good year as well. I also love that Alexander appreciates Champagne! my favorite. what a lovely surprise for the Sommelier to taste an excellent Krug on her birthday as well. great episode.

Truly a gentleman! Keep up Alex. For input, I wish I can have the close up video of the food all little bit more and a little more details of the restaurants exterior and interior looks thanks

I loved how your experience there turned into a nice gathering. The server who’s birthday it was! Plus some of your fans! You all looked like you had a great time! You just never know do you? I loved the design and the lighting inside. That’s really important. The lighting too. How is the restaurant lit. Creating that special mood. Ambience. The food looked interesting and good. I also loved the tableware. Especially those really cool wine decanters! The design was so great! I know design is very important in Finland. Scandinavia region. They have a great sense of design. Simplistic yet powerful.

Alexander really knows how to take us on a journey.

While I enjoy wines, I am very interested in what looked like the juice pairings your companion was having. Perhaps in a future review you could share with us what juices were served and paired with the foods. Thank you!

I would really like that. My son doesn't drink alcohol, sometimes I don't want to drink so much either. We tried alternative 0% wines last time in a Michelin 1-star restaurant next to our normal wine pairing and though they were good compared to other alternatives, it wasn't a great fit for someone who doesn't drink wine at all like my son. He just drank water after that one. So juice pairings or tea pairings would be very interesting, I think.

Not sure if it is an upcoming video or if you went, but Trondheim is an upcoming culinary city in Norway and Speilsalen at Hotel Britania is gunning for their second star and their food does not disappoint. If you have not been their yet, I would love to see you review Speilsalen!
