A trendy restaurant that offers a great selection of delicious Moroccan/Middle Eastern influenced dishes with natural & seasonal ingredients. Service is top-notch! Their lunch buffet or Sundary brunch are both good idea.

Hate kebab? Me too! But not this place. Their kebab comes with amazing ciabatta-ish bread from a local bakery, a delightfully creative selection of herbs (no lettuce-YASS!) and the ever so delicious apple vinegar sauce.
If you've never tried kebab with wine - here's the place to. Ask for their recommendations.

True traditional Finnish restaurant where the locals frequent. My top three favorite: Grilled liver in lingonberry sauce, Fillet reindeer in cranberry-redwine sauce and the oh-so-famous salmon soup.

Kallio eatery in its zero-fuss, unassuming best. Really simple menu with top quality Indonesian food. Just pick anything, amp it up with their chili paste (hot!) and you'll be a happy person.

Drinks & Nightlife
My favorite bar in town. Tucked away in a quiet corner of Kallio, this little place is cozy and about as local as it gets. Always ask if they have any special seasonal beer!

Located in the middle of Suvilahti, this is my favorite spot for a cold beer in a summer afternoon, watching the sunset. They have their own craft beer on tap. If you're feeling adventurous, opt for their stout!

Sightseeing
As popular and cliche as it is, this is the spot where you can get the best view of Helsinki's coastal sights. Climb to the Observatory hill and lay down to enjoy the breeze. Also the ideal place for the supermoon nights!

The most beloved national park. When the weather is ideal and you feel like getting away from the city bustle, make sure you take the full 8km trail. Make sure not to miss the berries / mushroom.

A free-spirited, hippy public sauna. Everyone is treated equal in this tiny steam space. The flower child Finns go hear to enjoy their sauna and a good swim, naked. So make sure you're prepared before coming here. A small summer festival takes place in the late August, with bonfire, music and the best dancers I've ever seen.

This lifestyle concept store combined interior design with a cafe. Located in a gorgeous old-factory-kind brick building, here you can find all sort of slow-living decor items, antique furniture and really cute paper goods. They also have another store closed to Sornainen metro station.
