Grilling at a price - Restaurant Nabi Korean BBQ

So, we went to Nabi Korean BBQ last evening with some expectations. Since our days in Paris, we've been fans of  the korean "grill it yourself" concept. It's a sure ticket - well most of the time - for good food and good evenings with friends. Nabi is no exception. The food is truly yummi, ultra fresh and packed with great flavors, with the waiting staff helping you every step of the way to make your dinner as pleasant as possible. The only down is the price. We took 2 set menus at 69€ plus a few beers and a bottle of Jinro Soju (the mandatory korean booze) and our bill soared north of 200€. The same dinner in Paris would have costs us 130-150€ max. But it's Helsinki and it's not a cheap city to live. Anyway, very good place to enjoy a korean bbq dinner if you have deep pockets, or choose a cheaper menu, or just drink water...

Footy food

Arsenal game on tv so, bagel with salad, onions, cucumber, cream cheese, cottage cheese and char grilled salmon. Healthier than a burger, but dare I say, probably not as good!

When in Laajasalo...




If you pass by Jollaksentie (54b), you should make a stop @ Fornitaly. Real italian pizzas made by real italians. There's only 3 tables outside the building as Fornitaly is not a real restaurant, more like a click & collect place. And indeed, lots of people came to collect their orders while we were eating. They do Tiramisu as well (portion for 2 - 10€). Very good indeed.

Ole in Tampere

If by any chance you're in, or soon to be in Tampere, and you like spanish food, go to Tampereen Kauppahalli (Tampere Market Hall). There's a small stall managed by a spanish guy from the Castilla y Léon region, dealing all sort of tapas. The guy is truly passionate about food and wines, and imports all his products directly from Spain (including the wines). If Jamon Iberico de Bellota with a glass of red wine from the Ribera del Duero is you thing, then, this is the place. Highly recommanded. (not sure if he speaks finnish as we only spoke spanish-ish with him).
