A super good wine bar + restaurant. Bit towards the more expensive side but still affordable on Helsinki prices. You'll find a excellent selection of organic food and wines from this venue. As a pro it's located 100m from your place.

Traveler advice
Getting around
Tips for getting around - from public transport to taxis
- Public transport: download app "HSL" - you can buy either daily or per trip tickets directly from app. Helsinki central is in area A.
- To/From Airport: Taxi should be roundabout 40€ one way. Cheapest option is taking a train from central railwaystation (you'll need ABC ticket). Slightly faster and affordable option is the Finnair bus that departs from railwaystation
- Taxis: local taxi's are very expensive. Would recommend downloading either Uber or Yango for cheaper trips.
- Electric scooters: Plenty of options on summer months. You can try for example "Voi" or "Tier" for getting around
Customs and culture
