We were not going to this place had it not been for that Soho was closed that day. Ahh, what luck! It caused us to find a gem!!

Nama is a very nice sushi place located close to the old part of the harbor front of Bergen. Their restaurant is modern and clean, and it seems to be quite popular. The sound level in the restaurant was a bit loud though and it was hard to hear each other talk when the place got full.
But we were there to eat, not to talk. Right? 
We ordered lots of different things off their menu. Mostly maki, but also some nigiri sushi.
