Restaurant-quality dining in your estate
A private chef for fjord homes and farms on the Geirangerfjord, the Hardangerfjord and the Sognefjord, from Flåm and the Nærøyfjord to the orchards of Hardanger. I cook wild, fire-led dinners, every meal of a long stay, and intimate fjord weddings.
Hardanger gives me apples, cherries and its protected cider, the Sognefjord valleys give me goat’s cheese such as the brown cheese of Undredal, and the west coast has red deer, mountain trout and summer lamb. I forage wild herbs, berries and mushrooms along the fjord and cook over open fire.
I have spent a decade in Michelin-starred kitchens, as Sous Chef of R&D in the Noma group and Head Chef at Kokkeriet, and I bring that standard to every table I cook for. My story.

Private chef in the Norwegian Fjords: good to know
Can you cook somewhere really remote at the end of a fjord?
Yes. I plan shopping in advance and bring what the area cannot supply, so even a remote farm gets a full menu.
When is the best time for a fjord stay with a chef?
Late May to September is the easiest, with apple blossom in Hardanger in May and wild berries and mushrooms from late summer.
Will you take us foraging along the fjord?
Yes. We can gather herbs, berries and mushrooms in season and cook them that evening.
Getting married in the Norwegian Fjords?
I cook weddings at fjord-side farms, orchards in Hardanger and private estates on the Sognefjord and Geirangerfjord, from an intimate dinner to 500 guests. See wedding catering in the Norwegian Fjords.
