Unpretentious, but really solid menu, for every taste. The terrasse is fantastic in summer. The dining room is lovely in winter. Can accommodate larger groups if booked ahead of time.

Grocery shopping

Best place in the city to buy fresh products, often straight from the producer. Amazing seafood, meat, produce, and local delicacies.

Local liquor store, perfect to find a good bottle of wine. Note that wine - and more broadly alcohol- sales are restricted in Finland. The shop closes at 9pm during the week, 6pm on Saturday. Closed on Sunday.

My favourite grocery store. The best products from all over the World that you can find in Helsinki. It's a very short tram ride away with line 6 or 9.

Sightseeing

Sveaborg or Suomenlinna offers a lovely day or half-day escapade. Only a 15 minute boat ride from the city center, using just a metro ticket (less than 3 euros as of Jan 2022). Would highly recommend.

A local gem. The architecture of this space is stunning, the views are marvellous, especially on a sunny day, and I would recommend their brunch (make sure to book). Alternatively, drop by to grab a coffee to take away, or enjoy dinner outside in the summer (the salmon soup is great). Of course, if you have the chance, enjoy their sauna and take a deep in the sea!
