Dinner At Juuri

Restaurant Juuri is located in Korkeavuorenkatu near Design Museum.


The speciality of the restaurant are Sapas appertizers with traditional Finnish flavours. Sapas are really tasty mouthfuls and there are some 15 different options on the menu priced EUR 4,50 each. You can take 2 each and share with 2 people so both get to have a taste as starters. But these are so tasty one wants to eat them all and as a main dish it was recommended to have 6-7 sapas each.


This time we chose Smoked bream and potato mousse with fried rye dough, Mushroom brioche with onion and cream cheese, Black sausage and Baked oregano cottage cheese with gooseberry and green pepper jam. All were delicious!


As a main course we both chose the dish of the day which was really nice salmon.


Two desserts were tested and I preferred Apple and rowan berry crumble with birch and yoghurt sorbet and salty liquorice sauce over Swiss roll with chocolate and caramel, salt caramel ice cream and pine fudge sauce.



Overall really good experience and excellent food. Sometimes the service can be little bit stiff, but now we had really good waiter. The only thing was that the noise level at restaurant gets pretty high at times so it is hard to have a conversation.


But the restaurant is definitely worth a visit because of the great food! And after dinner you can have a drink at next door Latva Bar.
