Would you pay US$400 to eat under the sea? Inside Under, the world’s largest underwater restaurant, now open in Norway
Watch fish swim by through an 11-metre panoramic window while you dine – on seafood, naturally – at Under, the subaquatic eatery designed by architects Snøhetta and newly named one of the ‘World's Greatest Places’
The world’s largest underwater restaurant, in Norway, just earned a spot on Time magazine’s top 100 World’s Greatest Places 2019 list.
Under, which opened in March, is Europe's first underwater eatery. Designed by architects Snøhetta, the restaurant sits half-submerged in the sea and has 1-metre (3.28-feet) thick walls designed to withstand the area’s rugged climate.
Guests at Under can gaze at marine life through an 11-metre wide, 4-metre tall panoramic window in the dining room, which seats between 35 and 40 guests each night. Muted lighting was installed on the seabed so that guests can see the marine life in any weather.
The cuisine is, naturally, seafood. Danish chef Nicolai Ellitsgaard Pedersen creates locally sourced dishes that include cod, lobster, mussels and truffle kelp, which is a local type of seaweed that apparently tastes like truffles
