First of all, it is really important to specify that we can eat for only 2.70 e at the university restaurant named antell. We often find on the menu vegetables that can be preserved during the winter like cabbage or potatoes or we can also find pasta. But it is very good. Here is an example of a dish that we could eat in this restaurant for only 2.70 e with the student card.
Then, now, let's talk about Finnish specialties :
- Liha Piirakka : a lihapiirakka is an everyday Finnish food sold in the market square at kuopio and available ready-to-eat as street food. To be honest, it’s not very good. It’s a form of savoury pie from doughnut dough cooked by deep frying and filled with a mixture of minced meat and cooked rice and you can add moustard.
- Karjalan Piirakka : Finnish rice pies.This is a thin rye cake folded over a rice filling. This cake is traditionally spread with butter and chopped hard-boiled eggs. These Karjalan Piirakka come from the Karelia region, but they are now eaten all over Finland and are very popular here. These rice pies are eaten for breakfast or as a snack at any time of the day.
- Poronkäristys, the traditional dish of Lapland :
If you go to a restaurant in Lapland, you will see this dish on the menu and I recommend you to try it because it is really delicious. The reindeer meat is not too strong as many people think. The reindeer stir-fry is served with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam.If many people think that reindeer meat is eaten very often in Lapland, this is not the case in reality. Reindeer meat is very expensive, so it is not eaten very often.
Then, we can find all sorts of variations with reindeer meat such as reinder pizza, reinder burgers etc.
- Korvapuusti,Finnish cinnamon rolls sold in the kuopio market all like pastries. They're the ultimate Nordic baked good, it’s delicious with a tea or a coffee. And also available in the supermarkets with a smalller and industrial format of the famous brand Giflar. It’s just perfect for a barbecue time with all your friends ! The concept is simple at the end of your stick you replace your chamalow by a cinnamon rolls.
