Finland is addicted to coffee… It’s not the third wave, you know, hot filter coffee enthusiast. With 12 kg per capita coffee consumption per year, it is the country that consumes the most coffee. Especially in Helsinki, they even drink salmon soup with coffee! What more?
In this article, I would like to talk about the Helsinki street market coffee, the variety of nuts in the market and the three elegant places where I drink coffee. The neighborhood market is located in the heart of the city. On the left side of the Senate building, the famous Uspenski Cathedral a little further, to the right of the harbor where giant ships dock. Market Square is actually a street market with tents that you know they call. Their size is not the size of an ordinary street market, but half or a quarter. You might think of a mini market. Fresh fruit, berries, yellow-red raspberries, green-purple chives, different mushrooms and, of course, cooked salmon and their derivatives, which are unsatisfied with taste.
I chose to eat red currant. What’s weird is that they don’t weigh these types of nuts, they sell in liters. There are certain containers as much as those containers. The most common fruit I found in Helsinki was blue sturgeon. It is very likely that you will come across fruit juice, weighing and many other variants, as fresh and fresh food leaves a creamy taste in the mouth.
Famous Helsinki Cafes to Drink Coffee
First of all, I must mention that many cafes here employ Scandinavian-style self-service logic. Before you sit on the tables, you get your dessert and an empty glass. If there is an option other than filter coffee, you make the coffee you want yourself. Generally, large thermos are made with filter coffee and you fill it from there.
Karl Fazer Café
Fazer, known for its chocolates, is one of the most famous patisseries. Incredibly stylish design desserts, cakes says. Seyret Watch me eat ”. He really is. Finns, who attach great importance to design, are reflected in their desserts. The image is spectacular, the taste is not bad. Or my baklava, Sekerpare, profiterole accustomed to my taste buds was quite mild flavor. The dessert I chose was a mini tart with lemon. The good thing about Fazer is that the filter coffees are fresh and have unlimited refill. So you can often refill your coffee mug while you watch the tiny desserts.
Ekberg
My second coffee stop is the famous Ekberg patisserie, which has been still operating in the same place since the 1800s. Coffee is served with an envelope full of cups and filter coffee for refill. The coffee here tasted really good.
Kapelle
Located in Esplanade Park, Kappeli offers an ideal setting for those who want to drink coffee in a stylish setting. You need to make some effort to get a good place, especially on the side facing the park, since you are seated before you take your own order. The stage provided by the Helsinki Municipality to the public is very crowded, as it coincides with this café. The music performances of people over the middle age are spectacular. If you intend to try venison, one of the famous Finnish cuisine, Kapelli’s restaurant section may be a good option.
