Pizza My ❤️
Grano Pizza is my favorite place in Trondheim. Not only because its pizzas, sandwiches, and bread are all out of this world, but because of an event that happened here 2 years ago.
Pass the tissues, please -
Grano was the last date I had with my boyfriend before I left the ship to go back to NYC in….February 18th, 2020.
😭 Yes, it was our last outing together before the pandemic.
2 years ago though, this place had either just opened or was going through renovations because it looked a little different.
Back then, there was no formal sitting area, we just sat at the window and ate our pizza out of the box.
Now, however, the place has walk-in and reserved seating, as well as menus and payment that you can access via a QR code. The only challenge is that to use this QR code you need to have a Norwegian number. But no problems, you can just go up to the counter and order and pay there.
With a busy lunch crowd, the atmosphere, brick walls, tile flooring, and overall decor transports you right into the heart of Italy.
Now enough about me, my history, and the looks of the place - let’s get down to it: THE PIZZA.
Oh. My.
I ordered a few different pizzas on different visits this year, but my favorite will always be the
Al Tartufo pizza - truffle cream, truffle salami, mushrooms, and cheese.
It is surprisingly light, flavorful, and has a crispy bottom while keeping a nice chewy dough (I feel like I’m on the Great British Bake-Off with these descriptions)
This is a must-stop if you are ever in Trondheim.
