Hows’ Norwegien food?
After my hike to Preikestolen, I returned to town and couldn’t wait to enjoy a good meal. I went to a seafood restaurant and ordered the "catch of the day." This dish is made with fresh seafood caught that day. It came with broccoli, potatoes, beans, and a tasty sauce. It was a bit expensive—£34—but it was worth it.
The next morning, I had breakfast at a café near my Airbnb. Everything was delicious. We ordered a croissant, a cinnamon roll, and a cheese toast. The croissant and cinnamon roll were not too oily or too sweet. The cheese toast didn’t look special, but when I tasted it, I loved it. It was made with sourdough bread, arugula, cheese, and bacon. Sourdough bread is a type of bread made with natural fermentation, which makes it healthier. In Taiwan, you can only find it in special restaurants or bakeries, but in Europe, it’s very common. This breakfast cost about £30 for two pastries, a slice of toast, and two coffees, but it was worth every penny.
Another delicious Norwegian treat is the vaffel! I love to eat it with brown cheese and jam. Brown cheese tastes a bit like the milk candy we have in Taiwan, but it’s less sweet and has a bit of a salty flavor. The mix of sweet and salty is so good that I can’t stop eating it!
I recommend trying Norwegian food. If you can, look for a Norwegian restaurant in your city—it might be cheaper than in Norway!
When I got back to London, everything felt much cheaper.
Next week, I will talk about the special Petroleum Museum in Norway!
