I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'place' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'go after ascending with endless special food?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for valhalla that I've seen before include "Scandinavian paradise" , "Great hall of Odin" , "'In Norse mythology, the hall in which the souls of heros were received by Odin (8)'" , "Where the souls of heroes go in Norse mythology" , "palace full of souls" .)
