I Vikings they are notoriously Nordic and could not choose Milano, the city par excellence in Northern Italy, to inaugurate the first Viking restaurant in our country. The place is called "Valhalla" and is nothing more than the result of an in-depth study of the eating habits of the Nordic populations of the past. Game is king, but not only. In ancient times this meat was hunted all year round and cooking was then done through embers or boiling.
The idea came to mind of Igor Iavicoli and Milena Vio, fans of Viking mythology and pub managers. Inside you can find hides, helmets and shields that make you think of the Viking populations and Valhalla, the home of the heroes who fell in battle in a glorious way. The drinks are mostly mead, craft beers and wines, but what exactly do you eat at this restaurant? The menu includes venison tartare (Ullr), Gulltopp (marinated horse rags) and Himinhriodhr (grated beef marrow).
Not lacking either venison steak, boar with beer, quail with juniper and much more. The traditions of the Vikings have been respected, but the culinary techniques are modern and revisited. Very interesting is the venison burger which is served with pumpkin and artichoke cream. The proposals for i Vegetarians they include beetroot carpaccio with seitan and chickpea meatballs in a sauce with artichokes.
