Yesterday I was shown around at Håland Kjøtt, a local butcher at Klepp, Norway. They have a butchery and a restaurant in the same building, and I must say it was an interesting place.
They are truly real craftsmen and they use every part of the animals here. It’s also a family business and they’ve been around for ages.
Although I don’t eat a lot of meat personally, I really do respect this trade.

Well hello there, traditional Norwegian open faced sandwich.
This place has everything you need, and more!
Their sausage won the Norwegian championship!
Their philosophy is to utilize the entire animal.
Cozy restaurant area in the room next to the meat counter.
I am so impressed with how clean and tidy the butcher’s place was. I expected it to be clean, but I was really impressed.
It sure was the first time I’ve been shown around in a place like this, and all I can say is that is was a fascinating place and that I regret now buying that sausage!
