What a setting! Surrounded by nature, this is Norway at its most authentic. The organic farm sets the tone, while the mountains and lake contribute their own wealth of ingredients and inspiration to the kitchen. Chef Halvar Ellingsen feels completely at home here, not least because the historic property was built by his family and because every season brings an abundance of culinary possibilities. His cuisine is naturally hyper-local and guided by a strong zero-waste philosophy, making the most of what the surrounding landscape has to offer. Vegetables are given an important role throughout the menu, although a dedicated pure plant menu is not yet available. Given the quality and diversity of the local produce, this would be an exciting next step. This exceptional destination is well worth the journey, offering a memorable combination of nature, local produce and thoughtful cooking.
