Today we’re eating a $10 hot dog followed by a $500 meal at one of the most isolated and unique restaurants in Norway!

Our food adventure all begins in Bergen, where we picked up our rental car… and Bergen happens to have one of the best hot dog stalls in the country.
Trekroneren, Bergen, Norway (https://maps.app.goo.gl/r3hg5JfDH1XTbT8TA) – This place self proclaimed says they serve the world’s best hot dog, and after trying it I have to agree. I tried their signature reindeer sausage, lingonberry, crispy onions – and it was one of the best sausages I’ve ever had. Price – 95 KR ($10.10)
Iris, Salmon Eye, Norway (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Yw8isGiVywxEiThg9) – Next up we drove a couple hours to get to Salmon Eye, and within a beautiful fjord you’ll find one of the most unique dining destinations in the world – Iris!
Our meal started with a trip to the Boat House, before we took the to the largest floating art installation in the world, home to Iris Restaurant. Head Chef Anika Madsen has worked in top kitchen in Denmark before opening Iris, where her and her husband and team now serve an 18 course meal that’s called Expedition Dining.
Here are all the dishes I tried:
CONE OF PLENTY – Aromatic herbs, fermented gooseberry and jasmine blossom.
TIDEMARK – Scallop, oyster emulsion, salads from Astrid & lemon butter sauce
500 METERS – Blue mussel, beach crab and rock weed
TOPPTUR – Crispy onion, langoustine tartare and smoked fresh cheese
COAT OF ARMS – Crispy croustade, Gastro Unika Gold caviar & salted mahogany clam
BROWN CRAB CIRCUIT – Toasted blinis, poached brown crab, crispy seaweed, black currant leaf, reindeer mousse & preserved pine cones
IT’S A TRAP! – Shrimp, tomatoes & tamarind
CRACK THE SILENCE – Sea urchin, fresh greens, raspberry & rose hip Nam Jim
WEEDS OF THE SEA – Cuttlefish, celeriac & lovage
NOT YOUR FINNBIFF – Reindeer filet, lardo, pepper sauce and confit fennel
TRASH OR TREASURE? – Scallop offcuts, horseradish, squid ink & lemon rind
SPRUCED UP – Crispy tartelet, pickled spruce needles, pine sorbet & caviar
WHEY HIT WONDER – Fresh Brunost, laminated brioche, red currant, strawberries & rum/plum ice cream
Price – 4,700 NOK ($473.84) per person (with wine over $500 per person)
Both the $10 hot dog and the $500 meal at Iris were absolutely incredible experiences.

It really was probably the best hot dog I've ever had in my life!
Rubbish, the pork sausages by far the best. Now add some mustard and caramelized onions, that is all.
mark, now we have dried reindeer for xmas, are you coming?
its always a good idea to stop for a good europeen hotdog! and the other floating restaurant you show us is amazing! tbh i never would go there by myself many thanks for sharing this experience, Mark
Pine needles, caviar, and ice cream? What? I don’t even think a pregnant woman would crave that combination! 😂
That’s definitely an experience. One thought that I don’t think many people would be into. A bit too artsy fartsy, plus over $500 per person with wine?!? Whoa!
I love me some hotdogs! Something about that restaurant felt off, otherwise what an experience!
Wow! That art insulation restaurant is amazing. What a fun dining experience.❤
2:50 idk man…
If I ate a $10 hot dog, it would be the best because it would be the only one.
Infrared light. pfff… Its Ultra Violet.
Lol! You and Jeffrey trying the hot dog together cracked me up. You guys are funny!😂🤣
This is condoning homosexualality ! Grotesque and NEVER!
Nice yumi
I watched The Menu thinking it was just fiction. Then I saw this. How the 1% live… keep your pretentious bollocks. Give me Thai street food made with passion and love any day over such nonsense. And blue cotton candy served on a rock eaten by rich people who don’t pollute the oceans ain’t saving the oceans… sigh 😮💨
Give me the $10 hot dog over that fancy crap…goodness knows how much it costs…
You forgot to ask for "Saft" its a free drink you get if you ask for it. And Trekroneren is the best "Pølsebod" in Bergen
Bro went to Bergen and the sun was shinning more than my hometown in Greece
Carbonara, anyone?
I want a hot dog 🌭
That is a 6 doughnut wiener
Mark, your ability to eat is under discussed. Do you have a hole in your stomach? Legendary appetite.
This weirdo is embarrassing!
