Kittelfältet - Värmland

The Edible Country is a do-it-yourself gourmet restaurant where visitors forage and cook their own food at one of seven tables placed in the Swedish wilderness. Each table comes with recipes for a nine-course menu composed by four Swedish Michelin-starred chefs and made out of ingredients you can find in our forests, fields or lakes.

How it works

1.Book your seats at the table for free. Please note that the booking is for seats at the table and DIY recipes – no meals are included in the booking. The table is bookable Wednesdays and Sundays May-September.

2.Read your booking confirmation. It contains all the information you need, including local contact details for any questions you may have. Your local contact can inform you on how to book add-ons like a cooking kit with basic supplies, a chef or a foraging guide, accommodation and more.

3.Come to the table and enjoy! Whether you choose to do-everything-yourself or employ the services of a local guide, we can promise you an unforgettable experience.

Why book add-ons?

Foraging and cooking in nature is a fun and rewarding experience, but can also be a bit of a challenge. Why not book an add-on like a cooking kit or a local foraging guide? It makes it more relaxed and gives you the chance to learn more about the region and its cuisine.
