What the creator captured
Mark Wiens traveled to the world's northernmost town in Svalbard to experience the remote Huset restaurant. He was fascinated by the extreme effort required to run a fine-dining establishment in the Arctic, from foraging for mountain sorrel in the snow to using million-year-old fossils as serving plates. Mark was particularly struck by the otherworldly landscape and the unique history of the building as a former coal miners' gathering place.
