A traditional artist-favourite restaurant offering both Finnish specialities (fish dishes, sautéed reindeer, Skagen toast, wild mushrooms) and pizza and international classics. A special mention goes to the restaurant’s signature dish – escargots in a blue cheese sauce – which our whole family sampled enthusiastically, soaking up the delicious sauce with bread. The menu had something for everyone, the children’s meals were tasty, and the prices of the kids' menu were reasonable considering the portion sizes. We also enjoyed the atmosphere, which was pleasantly free of intrusive background music. For international guests, a dedicated Finnish Specialities section on the menu would be helpful. Desserts leaned toward alcohol-based options. We missed the classic Finnish dessert köyhät ritarit – French toast served with marmalade and whipped cream – which used to be one of the restaurant’s delicious highlights.
