Gastronomy
Thai and Chinese, French and Italian, Mexican and American. You can sample all of these cuisines in Finland. But what in the world is Finnish food?
To really understand Finnish food, you have to understand Finns. They have moved out of the forest into cities and towns, but there is still a bit of forest in every Finn. This is where truly Finnish food comes from. Reindeer with lingonberry jelly. Fried Vendace from the lakes of Savo. Wild duck with chanterelles. Crayfish fresh caught from a crystal clear lake. You will find Finnish food for every taste and every budget, from a gourmet establishment to a family restaurant to trout cooked over a campfire.
