Menu
We craft our menus using in-season northern flora and fauna, and constantly try fresh ways to bring traditional northern ingredients into contemporary cooking.
Nothing tastes better than a locally sourced dinner with the midsummer sun flickering in the splashes of the river. In the winter, a crackling fire in the hearth keeps you warm and cozy as the polar night outside reaches subzero temperatures.
Let us take you on a journey through the pure northern landscape through our dishes.
Our menu is built around what is in season and locally sourced, and it changes two times a year to reflect the changes in nature. Have a look through our seasonal menu and book your table with us.

Paljakka is the summit area of a fell rising above the tree line. Reindeer herds usually seek open and windy areas during the mid summer period, to escape the summer insects.
The largest open water area of Lake Inari, where the opposite shore is not visible. The red-fleshed catches of Lake Inari are trout and Arctic char.
When it comes to desserts, it’s all about indulgence. This dish, therefore, is a treat. A fun fact is that the Northern Sámi translation for the word "treat" is "hersko."
A korteikko is, for example, an area in coastal waters where reed plants grow abundantly and provides a sheltered habitat for fish and their spawning.
Kielas is a narrow upland area on the fells, covered with birch trees and crossing the watershed.
"Riite" refers to a thin layer of ice that forms in freezing temperatures. It is so delicate that it breaks easily. Crowberry and lingonberry are also types of berries that can withstand the first frosts of autumn.

A dialect word used colloquially for 'forest'. For one person, a forest can be a place to find peace, for another, a recreational environment, and for us, especially a source of local food in its many forms.
A "kaski" is an area of land that has been cleared and burned for agricultural purposes. The ash acts as a nutrient for the soil. Slash-and-burn cultivation is a traditional Finnish agricultural method.
