Fazer Café is a modern classic that serves breakfast, lunch and even brunches (although the latter is only on the weekends). For chocolate lovers, this cafe and cake shop offers flavors featuring the beloved Fazer brand. Our favorite is the Geisha Latte. We promise you won&#8217;t be disappointed.



Did you know that some of the goodies are still made in Kluuvikatu? If you are lucky you might get to see the confectioners in action!

This newly renovated market hall offers products from local vendors and authentic Finnish flavors. 



So what should you to try? We Finns love our rye bread, fish, pastries, and anything with berries. For the braver palate, we recommend reindeer meat or blood sausage. In addition to vendor stalls, there are a couple of restaurants.

When you visit Helsinki, we recommend you visit Savotta. This is as traditional as it gets &#8211; these dishes and interiors bring you back to a simpler time in the countryside. Ask for a table by the window facing the cathedral. Honestly, one of the most romantic settings when it&#8217;s dark and snowing.

Savotta
