With four locations around central Oslo, this fun Thai restaurant with all kinds of kitsch décor — think tuk tuks straight from Siam, tropical palm trees and cozy light-strung booths — transports you to a tropical oasis. And before you fear that the Asian menu is too exotic for kids, know that there are simple noodle dishes, egg rolls, beef and broccoli and the like on the menu, in addition to the spicy dishes adults love. And, if the kids are good, there are killer banana splits for dessert. The ambient noise level is high as Yaya’s is a celebratory kind of spot.
