Taste of the Fjord offers you a 3-course tasting menu — come hungry! Locally produced cheeses and meats, followed by lapskaus (traditional Norwegian stew) and finished with a dessert.

Your host welcomes you to the Fjord Farm and guides you through historical insights and local food traditions in our beautifully restored barn overlooking the fjord. Once seated, the culinary journey begins!

First course is a tasting platter — travelling from sea to mountain on a single board: smoked herring from the deep fjords, cured venison from the highlands, coppa ham, and goat cheeses shaped by generations of mountain farming, all accompanied by apple jam from orchards tucked into sheltered fjord valleys. Together, this platter reflects the Norwegian way of eating what the land and sea provide. Served with apple juice from local fjord orchards.

Second course is lapskaus, a traditional Norwegian stew with as many recipes as there are grandparents in Norway. Ours features lamb, hearty root vegetables, and a pinch of greens from the garden. Born from a tradition of making the most of what the farm provides, this humble dish has warmed Norwegian families for centuries — served at farm tables, festive gatherings, and neighbourhood get-togethers. A comforting bowl of true home cooking, accompanied by flatbread, another Norwegian staple.

Third course: a seasonal dessert served with tea or coffee.
