Iris, a new and trendy restaurant in Norway, is situated in the floating art installation Salmon Eye, located at the heart of the scenic Hardangerfjord. Anika Madsen, a renowned Danish chef, runs this exclusive dining spot. The unique structure features a double-curved ellipsoidal design with a silver, spherical dome seemingly floating in the water.
Iris offers an 18-course tasting menu amidst the breathtaking mountainous landscape. Weather permitting, one course is even served on the rooftop, grilled over an open flame. After the dining experience, guests can return to Rosendal by boat. For those interested in the seafood industry, a visit to Salmon Eye can be combined with the restaurant experience.
With only 24 seats per evening, Iris operates from Wednesday to Saturday, offering a limited yet unforgettable culinary experience in the heart of Norway's natural beauty.

Café Swasthya, a wellness-driven café inspired by Ayurvedic principles and conscious living, has opened its second outlet in South Delhi. Launched on January 20, 2026, at Kailash Colony, the new café marks the brand’s next phase of growth following a year of steady engagement, collaborations, and expansion.
Spanning approximately 1,400 sq. ft. with seating for 43 guests, the Kailash Colony outlet continues Café Swasthya’s signature design language rooted in Indian architectural heritage and sustainability. Designed as a natural extension of the brand’s first café, the space offers a calm, grounded, and thoughtfully curated environment that encourages mindful dining.
The interiors feature a handcrafted bamboo ceiling inspired by traditional bamboo thatched roofs, selected for its renewability, strength, and natural temperature-regulating qualities. Teakwood furniture adds warmth and durability, while jute-matted seating highlights the use of biodegradable, locally produced natural fibres. Rajasthani upholstery with Charbagh-inspired floral prints introduces colour and cultural depth to the seating areas.
A standout feature of the café is its signature mud wall, inspired by sand plaster techniques. Serving as both a visual focal point and a storytelling element, the wall displays Café Swasthya and Butterfly Ayurveda’s curated range of teas, cookies, and wellness products. Terracotta lighting, drawing from architectural traditions dating back to the Indus Valley Civilisation, casts a soft and calming glow across the space.
Alongside the new outlet, Café Swasthya has significantly evolved its food and beverage offerings over the past year. Responding to consistent customer feedback, the brand has refreshed its menu to reflect changing preferences while staying true to its wellness philosophy. The updated menu features refreshing coolers and shakes, traditional Indian classics such as the Thali, and a selection of Indian desserts.
Addressing customer demand, the café has also introduced multigrain pancakes, expanding its breakfast and all-day dining options. Special gluten-free dishes, including an amaranth salad, further reinforce the brand’s focus on inclusivity, nourishment, and mindful eating.
The second outlet follows a year of key milestones for Café Swasthya. In 2025, the brand participated in the Asia Tea & Coffee Expo, sharing the story behind Café Swasthya and Butterfly Ayurveda. It also served as the Chai and Food Partner for the Wellness & Chai event organised by WomenListed, where it curated a 13-item Ayurvedic menu aligned with traditional practices.
Café Swasthya was also invited to the Global Happiness Festival in Jaipur, where it engaged visitors through a food and tea stall and conversations around Ayurveda and holistic well-being. Further collaborations included serving as the health partner for a skating tournament at Vivekananda School and providing curated cookie packs for Lady Shri Ram College’s international academic conference.
On the operations front, the café has strengthened its capabilities by upgrading bulk cake, muffin, and cookie packaging, enabling safe long-distance delivery of freshly baked products across multiple parts of India within 24 hours.
Commenting on the expansion, Akshi Khandelwal, Founder of Café Swasthya and Butterfly Ayurveda, said, “Café Swasthya is more than just about good food. It is about lifestyle transformation. We intend to integrate Ayurvedic wisdom into your everyday life to help you eat better, and live better.”
With its second outlet now open, Café Swasthya continues to create spaces that blend mindful food, traditional wisdom, and sustainable design. The brand is also open to select franchise and collaboration opportunities with partners aligned with its values of wellness, integrity, and sustainability.
Address: HS-37, 1st Floor, Kailash Colony Market, New Delhi – 110048 (Landmark: Above Madonna Salon).
