Welcome to our city

Kristiansand is the largest city in the south of Norway and much like the rest of the country, it has wonderful nature and promotes outdoor life. 

During my time living here I have developed a genuine appreciation for outdoor living and now I spend much of my spare time camping out and cooking in the wild. 

This wild landscape also provides a wealth of interesting food types: from fabulous seafood to delicious fruits and wild herbs.  

Kristiansand Food Club aims to take the influences from the surrounding areas into our cooking and events. 

We look forward to meeting you and sharing experiences and stories over the dining table. 

On this website you will find details of our events, recipes and some stories related to a British girl's adventures into Norwegian life, via food!
