The traditional restaurant Bryggen Tracteursted received the Foundation Norwegian food culture鈥檚 menu Prize 2011 for their dining menu, which is based on Bergen and Hanseatic tradition.听 The restaurant is situated in an old 鈥淪ch酶tstue鈥 built in 1708. 鈥淪ch酶tstuer鈥 were thus the only places on the Bryggen where you could get a warm meal in winter and were the only place for the hanseatic merchants to warm themselves in the winter. This particular 鈥淪ch酶tstue鈥 is the only one still standing on its original site, but now has a modern kitchen inspired by Bergen and its past Hanseatic culture. The restaurant has been confirmed and recommended part of Confraternita del Bacal谩 alla Vicentrina and serves Bacal谩 alla Vicentrina to the joy of all stockfish lovers and visitors to Bergen. It will now be a central part of the cultural and culinary travel route 鈥淰ia Querinissima鈥 which is under development in cooperation with organisations in Italy and other European countries. Bergen and Bryggen is now a cornerstone in the new food cultural travel route symbolized with the stockfish wooden sculpture located on Bryggen in Bergen.
