LASTLY:
"UT PA TUR ALDRI SUR"
This expression, directly translated as "Out on a hike, never sour" is known by every Norwegian from the age of 3 and up and means that one is always in a good mood when going out for an outdoor ramble - even if the conditions aren't ideal. It is of course essential to pack something delicious for the road. Small financier cakes made from Norwegian honey, served with dark berries, and fermented wild blueberry ganache. We finish the serving with more tropical flavors of chocolate and rhum, with the twist that the rhum in question, Granselos, is actually distilled right here in Norway.

A TRIBUTE TO ROSENDAL
A salute to our closest neighbour, Rosendal, and the amazing rosegarden at Baroniet. Sorbet with rose and quince

An incredible dinner last week at @iristherestaurant Iris in Rosendal, Norway, which is about 2.5 hours from Bergen driving including one or two (depending on your route) short car ferries. What I will say is that if you removed all the surrounding grandeur of the location and the experience, and just focused on the food that we ate, this was one of the most delicious and well structured menus that I’ve ever eaten.
In their own words:
“Our location guides every step we take at Iris, and we want our guests to experience the fiord, the mountains, and the ever-changing elements in the same all-encompassing way that we do every day. Here, we have the great privilege of bringing our guests to the ingredients, instead of the other way around. The experience at Iris is, quite literally, a journey. It starts with a boat trip from the picturesque town of Rosendal, with a pit stop and welcoming snack at chef @ani.kamadsen Anika Madsen’s boathouse on the island of Snilstveitøy.“
