I've been going to Ekberg since I moved to Helsinki for over 20 years ago. Ekberg is Finland's oldest bakery, patisserie and café, located in the city centre on the atmospheric Bulevardi. In the beautiful, newly renovated café you can let time sit still and enjoy delicious delicacies as well as a leisurely ambience. The Ekberg Café is open every day, with only certain holidays as an exception. The mornings begin with an appetizing and plentiful breakfast, which is served from a buffet from Monday to Sunday. Lunch is served at 11.00 on Monday to Friday.

A small café, hidden in the heart of Helsinki with a great view of Alexanterinkatu. A favorite among a lot of busy Helsinkians who during the week visit the café for breakfast, lunch and take away coffees. During the weekends La Torrefazione serves brunch and salads, in other words, a perfect pit-stop when spending a day on the town.

My absolute favorite pizza bar has a now a location on Iso-Roobertinkatu (900 meters walking or tram 1, 3). This is your place if you like NYC-Neapolitan style pizza with chewy, crispy, tangy and charred crust. The pizzas cost 13-18 e and the menu is constantly changing. Sometimes they make me my favrite "Bee Sting" even if it wasn.t on the menu. No reservations. Cam be delivered home via Wolt app.

Voted Best Restaurant in Helsinki for several years now. It is difficulta to get a table, but you can usually walk in and ear by the bar. It is open until 1 am from tuesday to friday so if you arrive late this is the place to crab a pasta or even the whole menu of the day.

Excavated directly into solid rock, the Temppeliaukio church is situated in the heart of Helsinki, at the end of Fredrikinkatu. Because of its special architecture, the church, completed in 1969, is one of the main attractions in Helsinki. The church hall is covered with a dome, lined with copper and supported on the rock walls by reinforced concrete beams. The interior walls are of rugged rock and rubble wall. Before noon, the light spreads from the row of windows surrounding the roof periphery to the altar wall, where an ice-age crevice serves as the altarpiece. Due to its excellent acoustics the church is a popular venue for concerts.
