Bergen has its first Michelin star restaurant, called Bare. We finagled our way in and had an incredible 14 course meal. Always go to fancy pants dinners with really fun friends. We laughed as much as we ate.


Course 1 (this was a pre-dinner bar treat)

The paparazzi have arrived

Course 2 (also in the bar)

Course 3 came in a beautiful dish. Each was different.

Course 4 was lil tacos (still in the bar)
Finally, we moved into the dining room. BTW, a hint about having a meal like this. say YES to all possibilities (like the caviar course and the wine pairing option). Always YES.
