A few meters from the famous medieval Bryggen is Bergen's market. A modern building that houses both the stalls selling seafood to buy and consume products, such as the Office of Tourism of the city in his basement.
Whenever I travel, I attempt to go to local markets to browse the products, prices, places, people. On this trip to Norway where I went to the region of the Norwegian fjords, I set up the pulpit (and despite subsequent soreness), I enjoyed a mythical journey in the train Flam, I became a Viking sailing the fjords, and ... I could not resist entering the market Bergen.
Market Bergen, Norway
Inside the market, we can wander through the halls and peek into the refrigerators where seafood from the area are exhibited: wild salmon or factory in a thousand forms (natural, smoked, marinated, pickled, etc. etc.), hedgehogs , crabs, shrimps and prawns, lobsters, herring, mussels, oysters, etc.etc.

In these places you can buy whatever you want them prepare and eat it on the spot right there at a table overlooking the port of Bergen. A luxury.

Roaming around have many options, from sushi to whale meat (dark and tender), not forgetting the typical dishes based on smoked.

In the esplanade that opens in front of the building market, with the same bay of the port, also stalls where you can buy products as diverse as sausages "rare" meats, fruits, vegetables, canned are placed.
At the site you can also purchase platters to sample the exquisite king crab legs or whale meat in economic disposable bowls with a lower gourmet restaurants from all over the world who are fighting to have these products in their letters budget.

You see: a combination plate of king crab or whale for only 20 euros! Remember that we are in Norway ... this is a very good price.
Market Bergen, Norway
You can see cooked ready to eat halibut, salmon to take home and that dark meat is ... whale.
And for the curious who dare to try: sausages reindeer, elk and whales. All that I've tried. The elk is stronger and more like the wild boar; The reindeer is a spicier version of its tasty flesh and something firm (not hard); and the whale looks like the typical black pudding we all know.
Below I leave more pictures of jobs and dishes so you can get an idea of the variety on a visit to Bergen market stalls.
