To be honest, the photos in that article don’t look all that different from what I can see while walking around Oslo. I suspect the biggest difference between the two countries has been the schools and the bars. (Norwegians have been arrested trying to sneak into Sweden to go to bars/clubs.)

Note to self for next trip to Chicago; I see they have one in the Loop. Something to cure the earned hangover

Try the Milk Room around the corner in what used to be the Chicago Athletic Association (now a boutique hotel): https://www.chicagoathletichotel.com/restaurants/milk-room
It was once a literal speakeasy. And the drinks are well crafted. Definitely worth checking out, to change it up a bit without walking too far.
