Restaurant recommendations for Helsinki before Ryabaga Camp, Ponoi.
I headed to Helsinki a day early to have dinner with some Finnish friends and clients. We had a great sporting evening talking non-stop about fishing and shooting all over the world. They took me to a restaurant I had not been to before called Boulevard Social at No 6 Boulevard Street just 10 minutes from the Kamp Hotel. We had a very good, light, tasting menu, which was not slow and laborious but very good and swift with excellent food including fois gras, honey pork belly, lamb, gazpacho prawn cocktail etc…see http://boulevardsocial.fi/. It’s neighbour is run by the same team of chefs is called Gaijin and is more of a Japanese/seafood experience, have a look at http://gaijin.fi/.
