About our kitchen
The kitchen of Utsu is built on a philosophy of purity, creativity and deep respect for nature. Our menus are shaped by the seasons, featuring Arctic ingredients at their freshest, berries and mushrooms gathered from the surrounding fells and bread baked daily in our own kitchen. Guided by a zero-waste approach, our chefs use every element with care while tailoring dishes to meet special dietary wishes. The result is a cuisine that captures the authentic flavours of Lapland and elevates them through the artistry of fine dining.
