An Exclusive Christmas Buffet Experience in Andrummet
This year, we invite you to an atmospheric, sustainable and exclusive Christmas table experience in Andrummet, where Kiruna’s three great cultural rivers – the Sami, Tornedalen and Swedish settlers, are intertwined in a culinary journey. This is the evening for those looking for something out of the ordinary, where each dish tells a story and our knowledgeable chef and service guide you through your experience of both food and drink.
Creative Interpretations
The evening’s chef welcomes you, who together with your knowledgeable service will guide you through the evening. The menu is served as a flowing story, where each dish is a new chapter. The space is set with long tables, perhaps a new acquaintance or business contact can sprout. Like water finding its way through the wilderness, we create creative interpretations of traditional dishes with a subtle taste of Christmas.
Andrummet
The evening begins with a warming mulled wine and amuse bouche in our lobby. Once the entire party has gathered, you will be led through the winter night along a torchlit path to Andrummet, our private dining room for smaller parties, where we will stay for the rest of the evening.

Sustainable Food & Drink
Once seated, the dishes are presented by our staff like rafts on a mighty river. This evening, the wine also plays a central role, where we will discuss its background and why it has been chosen to accompany the dishes served. And as always at Camp Ripan, you can trust that we only serve organic or biodynamic wines from vineyards in Europe with a long-term commitment to sustainability. Our meat is always Swedish and sourced locally as far as possible, the same applies to other ingredients. You can read more about how we prioritize our purchases in our Camp Ripan model, and if you have other questions about our sustainability work, you are warmly welcome to ask them to our chef or service staff during the evening.
