Stavanger is truly Norway’s oil & food capital. It is the headquarters of oil companies operating in the North Sea, giving the city an international flavour, which, in turn, has spurred the development of a buzzing night life and world class restaurants that have given birth to Michelin-star chefs. Still, it has retained its charm as a small seaside town surrounded by dramatic and breathtaking scenery.
