Amazing vegetarian food (mostly), great lunch and even greater brunch with a nice hippie vibe. You can find it also in Kortteli Kamppi (see below). If you go to the restaurant in Kallio, you'll get to know a totally new neighborhood!

Awesome island with many fortresses and other cool stuff from all the wars plus you get there by a ferry!! A place to walk around and learn about our history. It's a tourist attraction for sure, but you can find some secret places around the island for a picnic or just some chilling.
