Soppakeittiö

Try Salmon soup (lohikeitto)

Soppakeittiö inside the Old Market Hall ladles out the city's reference bowl of creamy salmon soup with all the rye bread you can eat; the queue says it.

Fafa's

Try Falafel and halloumi pita

Fafa's started on Iso Roobertinkatu and grew into a Finnish pita chain, but the original still turns out the falafel and halloumi that made its name.

Eromanga

Try Lihapiirakka (Finnish meat pie)

Eromanga near Kasarmitori is an old-school bakery-cafe whose lihapiirakka meat pie is still made to a secret 1946 recipe, topped with sausage and egg.
