I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Rakfisk made with real commitment to dried stockfish and technique. The rich and slightly sweet result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

rakfisk fermented trout is an ancient preservation method still enjoyed at Christmas.

When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
