Trondheim: Culinary discoveries between city & nature - From cozy cafés to wild specialties from the forest: Olaf explores the culinary diversity of Trondheim and discovers the culinary treasures of the St. Olav's Trail with wild plant expert Jim Andre.
Trondheim - a culinary insider tip
The charming port city of Trondheim in central Norway boasts a diverse gastronomic scene. From relaxed cafés and modern bistros to highly acclaimed Michelin-starred restaurants - the city offers something for every taste. But it's not just the city center that offers culinary discoveries: The surrounding countryside also has many a surprise in store. Olaf embarks on a special taste journey and explores the wild flavors of Norway.
Wild ingredients from nature
Together with Trondheim wild plant expert Jim Andre, Olaf sets off in search of edible treasures. Jim collects algae, mushrooms and berries and supplies them to Norway's top gastronomy. The spoils of their foray later end up on our MONOLITH ICON - refined with wild garlic mayo and seaweed from Jim Andre's own experimental kitchen. The flavorful result is impressive across the board.

Trondheim is not only an insider tip for foodies, but also an important place for pilgrims, as the famous St. Olav's Way ends here. Olaf explores the culinary aspect of these historic pilgrim paths with Jim Andre - and you can find out what he prepares from the ingredients he collects in a new episode of our "It's all about food" series.
