Traditional Sweet Dishes
Korvapuusti
Korvapuusti literally means "a slap on the ear", a playful name inspired by the bun's pinched shape, and its cardamom-scented dough has been a beloved Finnish café staple for generations.
Runeberg torte
The Runeberg torte is named for national poet Johan Ludvig Runeberg, and every February 5th Finns enjoy these almond cakes topped with raspberry jam to celebrate his birthday.
Pulla
Pulla is a soft, cardamom-scented braided bread made for sharing, and it is practically designed for kahvihetki, the cherished Finnish coffee moment enjoyed throughout the day.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Karjalanpiirakka
Karjalanpiirakka features a thin rye crust filled with creamy rice porridge, and it is traditionally eaten warm with a spread of egg butter that creates a silky, savory contrast.
Kalakukko
Kalakukko is a rustic pie of fish and pork baked inside a dense rye loaf, originally made to be carried on long journeys because the bread preserved the fillings for days.
Meatballs (Lihapullat)
Lihapullat are Finnish meatballs seasoned simply and served with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam, a comforting combo that showcases the Nordic taste for sweet and savory together.
Traditional Beverages
Coffee
Finland drinks more coffee per person than any other country, and coffee breaks are woven into work and social life so tightly they are often called a national pastime.
Sahti
Sahti is an ancient farmhouse ale flavored with juniper and often made without hops, its cloudy, unfiltered pour smells of bread and berries and connects modern drinkers to rural brewing traditions.
Kotikalja
Kotikalja is a mildly fermented, low-alcohol bread beer once brewed at home, its malty sweetness made it a common table drink before commercial sodas became widespread.

Suomenlinna ferry was serene early morning, skip the midday crowds if you want quiet.
Seafood and rye everywhere, salmon soup saved me on a rainy afternoon, prices are steep but portions generous.
Thought it would be lively at night, but lots of places close early, nightlife is quiet compared to other capitals.
Check museum websites, many have free or reduced entry slots on certain days. We saved a lot just planning.
If you go in shoulder season, bring a waterproof layer and comfy walking shoes, sudden showers and cobblestones are unforgiving.
