Norwegian cuisine is more than gravlax, boiled fish balls and the smorgasbord. It's a culinary haven steeped in history. Set out on a walking tour and learn how Skjolden's food tells the story of this village. From the pier, it's a brief walk to Fjordstova, the center of Skjolden, which sits at the edge of a glacial lake. Here, you'll meet your guide for your culinary adventure. Be at one with nature as you gaze out at the stunning fjords and serene mountains. Watch a captivating video and hear lively commentary about the lives, work, and leisure of the townsfolk. Then, sample small but nourishing bites of local delicacies of modern dishes as well as those whose roots date back to the Vikings such as "rømmegraut," a Norwegian porridge made with sour cream and "brunost," a sweet, soft cheese made brown when milk sugars caramelize after boiling.
