Belge Bar & Bistro
A steaming bowl of mussels, grilled sausages and those fantastic Belgian beers make this little piece of Brussels a great place for lunch or dinner. Stylish restaurant upstairs and more casual bar and bistro at street level.
-
Karl Fazer Café
Another historical cafe worth delving into, this is a huge space with lots of character, classic decor and a small terrace. Founded in 1891 by the Finnish confectionary-making family (you'll see Fazer sweets and chocolate everywhere), it does amazing ice-cream sundaes and also sells cakes and tea to take away.

Konstan Möljä
Konstan Möljä is one of the few places to go for hearty home-style Finnish fare in a pleasant, rustic atmosphere. Much of the maritime decor comes from an old harbour near Vyborg (once Finnish but now in Russia). The buffet includes soup, salad, bread, meat and vegetable dishes, and, as always, reindeer.

Lappi
This Lapp restaurant is the place to come for a healthy dose of northern rustic decor, playing it up a little for the enjoyment of those visitors who aren't going to make it that far north. Many people come here to try the sautéed reindeer, but other dishes are actually much tastier, such as the fish, or elk, and there's a great plate of mixed starters.
-
Sea Horse
This much-loved restaurant was established in the 1930s and the decor has barely changed since then. It's frequented by people from all walks of Helsinki life, who come for its menu of home-style staples served in enormous portions. The fried herring, the meatballs, the liver and mash: all the delicious Finnish classics are there just like granny used to make them!
-
Zetor
Zetor is a spoofy restaurant with ironic tractor decor ('Zetor' is a tractor manufacturer). It's owned by film maker Sakke Jarvenpää and designed by those crazy guys from the Leningrad Cowboys. It's worth going in just for a drink and a ride on a tractor, but the food is decent value too.
