We spent one evening with @brimexplorer on their 3-course dinner cruise which was a phenomemal experience 🍽️

You’ll be told the courses while onboard (you can share dietary requirements beforehand) and you’re given plenty of time to sit out on deck to enjoy the beautiful views ☀️

This elegant dining experience in Oslo works with the famous Einer Restaurant to bring the seasonal flavours of Norway to life, all while on-board a sustinable vessel 🤩
