Join us for an afternoon of meringues, with a battle between the Norwegian Kvæfjordkake and the Swedish Pinocchio.

How does immigration influence the pizzas served in Norway and Sweden? Join us for an evening of surprising tastes and fun twists on Nordic pizza. We'll make our own dough, and then top it with the modern flavors of sweet corn and shrimp, white sauce with caviar, and Flygande Jakob (Flying Jacob). We'll also toss a traditional pizza salad and shake up a couple of New Nordic-inspired beverages.
