Norway – the Most Awarded Country in Bocuse D'or Team Norway - Winner of Bocuse d'Or, Tallinn 2020 - Photo: Jonas Haar Friestad Oct 26, 2020 13:17 CET Norway – the most awarded country in Bocuse d’Or Reigning champion Norway defended their European title when Christian André Pettersen secured the gold medal in the European final in Bocuse d’Or that was held in Tallinn, Estonia, on Friday, October 16. Bocuse d’Or Europe has been arranged seven times and Norway has reached the podium on each occasion. Pettersen and his team presented creations featuring delicacies like smoked quail, potato ravioli and crayfish sauce. Over 300.000 people watched the live stream of the event from Tallinn, proving once again the huge interest for this prestigious competition. Team Norway is now ready for the 2021 "World Championships for chefs" at Bocuse d'Or in Lyon. Last year, for the 2019 Bocuse d’Or, Pettersen was awarded the bronze medal for his delicate and surprising flavours from the Arctic. A culinary revolution has taken place in Norway in recent years, led by a wave of innovative Norwegian master chefs like Pettersen. Every other year, 24 of the most promising chefs in the world meet in Lyon in France to participate in the world’s most prestigious culinary competition. Since the competition was first held in 1987, Norway has won five gold, three silver and three bronze medals, making Norway the country with the most Bocuse d’Or awards. CEO of The Norwegian Gastronomy Foundation Mr. Arne Sørvig says: "Team Norway has won most podiums of all countries in Bocuse d’Or since its inception in 1987. Norway may not have the broad culinary traditions that European countries like France, Italy and Spain have. In the 80s and the 90s a movement for opening up the chefs' community towards international food cultures and varied culinary traditions changed Norwegian chefs, and subsequently the restaurants. The participation in Bocuse d’Or has since the start been an important driver for leading Norwegian chefs to test their skills and ideas in the world’s most prestigious professional cooking contest. And all Norwegian chefs support their candidate, and follow closely the competition, and thus receive inspiration and new ideas for developing their own cuisine. It is a very positive circle. Also the competition has evolved with time, and opened up for a broader gastronomy, a world gastronomy, where a country’s geographical identity is at the core of a team's proposed menu. This way Bocuse d’Or maintains its high professional relevance in a “glocal” culinary evolution towards local ingredients, searching and renewing old traditions, methods and recipies, while at the same time being inspired by similar mindsets in many ambitious countries involved in “new" cuisines”. Among the Norwegian chefs with medals at the prestigious Bocuse d'Or, we find Bent Stiansen, at Statholdergaarden in Oslo, Charles Tjessem at Villa Skeiene in Sandnes in the Stavanger region, Geir Skeie at Brygga 11 in Sandefjord, Ørjan Johannessen at Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri, in the Austevoll municipality south of Bergen and Christopher Davidsen at Britannia's Speilsalen in Trondheim. Many other Norwegian chefs have also obtained a worldwide reputation in recent years, as an increasing number of Norwegian restaurants have received stars in the prestigious Michelin guide. The opening of the world’s largest underwater restaurant Under in Southern Norway in 2019, as well as the Michelin stars awarded to Trondheim restaurants Credo, Fagn and Speilsalen, have definitely brought Norway on the bucket list for foodies from all over the world. Norway is the place to experience the magical northern lights and the midnight sun above the Arctic Circle; visit the world-famous fjords surrounded by spectacular mountains and glaciers; and in the midst of stunning scenery, enjoy gourmet food and culture in the cities of Oslo, Trondheim, Stavanger, Bergen and Tromsø.

On Wednesday, April 1, 2015, the ex- hibit, “Brooklyn/Norway: A Visual Interpre- tation,” opened at the Danish Athletic Club. It is the first known exhibit that the Danish Club has held in its over 120-year history. This exhibit focused on the perceptions locals from Brooklyn and Norway have about the other, whether realistic, mythologi- cal, or somewhere in between. Both places serve as symbols of exotica, but for differ- ent reasons. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines exotica as “things excitingly differ- ent or unusual.” Today, Brooklyn epitomizes hip or cool worldwide, whether warranted or not. Meanwhile Norway remains a place of Caucasian exotica, unknown by most due to its geographic distance from much of the world and its small population, (a little over five million today). Scandinavian artists who reside in the New York area were asked to submit piec- es that exemplify their view of Brooklyn. Brooklyn artists were asked to submit a visu- al interpretation of Norway.

Annechen Bahr Bugge 11201005 (HealthMeal) 11201443 (Norske mat- vaner) Oppdragsgiver Norges Forskningsråd og SIFO Sammendrag Matforbruk er i økende grad blitt et spørsmål om ansvar og omsorg. I den nyliberalistiske retorikken blir forbrukerne hele tiden oppfordret til å handle sunne, naturlige, økologiske, etiske produkter, samt å unngå billig, masseprodusert mat (hvor gjerne sukker, fett og salt er hovedingredienser). Det er ikke bare ansett som dårlig for kroppen, men også for våre omgivelser. Gjennom media, ekspertuttalelser, helse-/miljø- kampanjer, produktlanseringer, reklame, dietter osv. blir også forbrukerne hele tiden eksponert for en rekke ulike og ofte motstridende teorier og oppfatninger om hva som er rett og galt. En konsekvens av dette syners å være at forbrukernes forhold til mat er blitt mer anstrengt. Dette kommer blant annet til uttrykk ved at listene over nei-ingredienser og nei-mat har blitt stadig lengre.
