Learn new tricks in the kitchen!


Food is at the heart of Trasti & Trine's mission to bring people closer to the place and its residents. The menu reflects Northern Norway, featuring locally sourced ingredients that showcase the region's fjords, mountains, and forests. The dining experience is a communal affair that evolves with the seasons. Vegetables are picked from the garden, and berries and wild ingredients are gathered from the mountains and forests. All animal products come from well-treated animals, whether in the woods, on local farms, or in the sea. Collaboration with local farmers, hunters, and fishermen ensures the highest quality and freshness.
