Deli de Luca (Oslo S)

It all begins with an idea.

UPDATE 26/08: Like I said in Decor, I ended up back here.  Actually, this happened to be my third return to a Deli de Luca in the past three days.  One night before setting out on the town, my friend had torn through a pesto calzone.  And now, for the third time, we were back in the railroad station.  She got a smoothie.  And I, seeing it while grabbing that calzone in the city center, had to try the Chocolate Spoon Cake.  Yes, you heard me.  I came back for it. 54NOK and worth every penny, it was.  Well, worth every Norwegian krone anyway.  It has been a mighty long time since I have experienced a cake so laden with chocolate, so enriched by the various forms cocoa can take – cake layers, lathery frosting, uprooted chocolate shell topping, clipped side shavings – and so so so heavenly.  I got my friend to take a bite. Her words prior – “I’m not really a chocolate fan.” Her words after – “Can you just scoop a little onto the lid – yeah there – and I’ll eat from that?”  I’m going to include a link to it from their website below.  It has everything from ingredient information to the nutritional values.  You can have a go at trying to figure out which Norwegian word means “piece of heaven.”
