Dried and salted cod and bacalao

Whilst visiting this lovely Norwegian town, do not miss the local speciality of bacalao, which is found on most menus, along with plenty of seafood options. In Kristiansand you will not have to travel far to find a superb and varied range of choice with traditional eateries, luxury restaurants and Indian, Chinese and Thai food rubbing shoulder to shoulder.
Food festivals and the Atlantic Road

The town also celebrates several festivals where you will be served delicious food in an authentic "Kristiansund" style – the Snadderfestivalen, for example, sells Norwegian produce of the highest quality.
