😍 5/5 - On a rainy Saturday night, after a full day of exploring

On a rainy Saturday night, after a full day of exploring the Norwegian fjords via hiking, driving, and kayaking, we came to Lysverket for our prize, a full Scandinavian fine dining experience. Our whole party has heard amazing things about the young mastermind Christopher Haatuft and I have read his profile on The New York Times, but the carefully prepared works of art, not only captured my belly, but made my soul smile with happiness. Situated inside an art museum, Kode 4, Lysverket is a stylish and elegant space with zero frills. I believe the minimal approach to decor, allows the customer to fully experience the richness and the beauty of their meal, all while in a dimly lit, intimate space.Eager to try everything we opted for a full tasting menu and a wine pairing. Each tasting menu and a wine pairing is per person; I would recommend this option as it allows to for a full depth of modern Norwegian cuisine + the sommeliers really know their wine here and you get to try one of a kind, limited edition blends. Beware, the wine pairing accommodates each food course, and since there are seven unique dishes, you should prepare to not drive or operate heavy machinery after your meal:)Onto the food, in this order:We began our meal with three starters: sea urchin butter kebab, fresh ceviche, and cold cucumber soup. All I can say is, wow! Every plate was a micro masterpiece of flavors, and while the kebabs were bite size, they packed a delicious flavor and the urchin was an absolute star of the show with it's salty notes and a creamy finish. Next came the crab cake, and I feel in love. If you did not know, Norway's second largest industry after oil is seafood and fish. I can confidently say that I tried my best smoked salmon, paella, mussels, and prawns here, but the crab at Lysverket was my number one love. Small, but delicate, the meat was tender, juicy, and fresh & pinch of lemon tied the whole flavor profile together. The tartness of the crab cake was the perfect introduction to rye tostada with chicken vinaigrette. Our person favorite, this was a dynamite of a dish! I have never had a rye tostada before and I am glad that Lysverket was the first place to introduce me to it. Onto the main course, and I was melting at the taste of fresh Norwegian scallops with leaks and a cherry puree. The tartness of the berry, mixed with fresh sea water soaked scallops, and fresh leaks, painted a masterpiece for my taste palette. Then came the heavy hitters, starting with pan roasted fish with mushrooms and mussel sauce (I wish I could explain how good Scandinavian fish tastes, but I really want you to go and try it yourself ) and concluding with tender sheep and potato mash. All around fireworks of explosive bites and flavor pairings, thoughtful and sustainable ingredients (another reason that makes Lysverket a must-go), and creative plating, really solidified my satisfaction with this restaurant. For dessert, we concluded the evening with goat's milk panacotta with mango, and yep, you guessed it, more wine! The dessert was light, rich in flavor (all thanks to the goat cheese) and the perfect end to a gluttonous journey into the Neo-Fjordic cuisine (The New York Times said it first and I would have to agree). The wine pairing would require a separate review of its own but I will begin by saying that it has been some of the best wine I have ever had (and I have had some great wine since my family and friends are all big connoisseurs and grape lovers). Most of the wines are white, but you do end the night with some nice reds. It is equally as important to mention that the staff was extremely accommodating. One of our friends does not enjoy raw fish, and the waiter immediately asked the kitchen to prepare an alternate unique dish especially for him. No one asked any questions, and the whole restaurant staff was pleasant, friendly, and had versatile personalities and a lot of charisma.In terms of the price, this is a fine dining experience at a Michelin rated Scandinavian restaurant so yes, it was not cheap, but it was exquisite and every bit worth it. You can certainly save money if you choose to opt out of the wine pairing, but we wanted to get at the full menu so we budgeted accordingly. I love all kinds of food and I enjoy hole in the wall local joints, food trucks, pop-ups, chains, and fancier restaurants, but Lysverket is by far one of the most memorable food experiences I have had to date. 5/5 starts because it's THAT good.
