People have been traveling to Trondheim since long before the Viking Age. Not only was the city Norway's Viking capital and later a solemn pilgrimage destination, but the region was also a favorite food destination. Thanks to a series of coincidences dating back millions of years, Trøndelag has a terroir that is nothing short of a gastronomist's dream.
Here, people discovered the fertile soil, fjords and mountains, with a myriad of seafood and wildlife.
Trøndelag has the perfect breeding ground for world-class ingredients - this is the Home of Nordic Flavours!
- Norway is already the most winning nation in the Bocuse d'Or. Now that the competition is coming to Trondheim, the world's gastronomic eyes are once again turned towards our country. This is a national event and we in Trøndelag are looking forward to hosting on behalf of Norway. This will give us a unique opportunity to showcase Norway and Trøndelag and produce from all over the country. The event is scheduled for March, when seafood in Norway and Trøndelag is at its best, which will be reflected in the ingredients both in the competition and on the menus of the city's restaurants.
