The seasonal Chef’s Menu is based on the beautiful nature surrounding the restaurant; fresh fish from Lake Saimaa and game, berries, mushrooms, and wild herbs from the nearby forests. Menu contains at least six courses and varies based on the ingredients that our local producer network provides to our kitchen. Craftmanship and respect towards the ingredients are in the heart of everything we do.
I spent my childhood fishing and playing in the nature of Rantasalmi and Lake Saimaa which led to the appreciation towards the local ingredients. My love towards butter however comes from my French roots. Although the main ingredients of the menu come from nearby, I do not want to think of the restaurant only as Nordic or Scandinavian. My other passion besides food is travelling and I have travelled around the world to learn about cooking and traditions in other cultures. I have worked in top restaurants of Australia and used to live in Bali and I hope that to taste in my cooking as well.
Menu can be varied according to most food allergies and dietary restrictions upon notice in advance.
