An intimate and bespoke fine dining experience created by Chef Balázs, Blær brings the elegance of dining into the comfort at your own home. Each tailor-made tasting menu is a journey through Nordic flavors, crafted to surprise, delight, and connect — transforming your table into a stage for unforgettable moments.
In Icelandic, Blær means “breeze” — a gentle wind that carries freshness, lightness, and quiet transformation.
It is nature’s subtle reminder that change can be powerful without being loud. For us, Blær is more than a name. It is the philosophy behind every private dining experience we create. Like a breeze, our service is effortless and natural, yet it leaves a lasting impression. Every menu is shaped by the seasons, using the finest ingredients to bring freshness to your table. Every detail is considered, every flavor balanced, every moment tailored exclusively to you.

Working with a zero-waste philosophy, every product is used to its fullest potential — applying skill, creativity, and care to ensure nothing is lost.
