In Turku you do not have to search for a long time, where to eat with taste. The city is simply flooded with interesting institutions with well-known chefs. Take a voyage to the Scandinavian restaurant SMOR restaurant or start a pleasant evening with Spanish Pincho Snacks in the Tinta Wine Bar. Walking on the restaurants of the Aura River Embankment is the same great idea. You can go to a longer journey - on the archipelago for island delicacies. But first things first.
Restaurant SMOR you will find in the charming vaulted fusion on the waterfront, in the library quarter Turku. The restaurant uses local products, and the menu changes every season. Visitors without prejudice choose a surprise menu here. In the kitchen of the restaurant, celebrities can operate: Jarno Seppa, a silver winner of the 2013 cook contest, as well as Eder Rodriguez and Janne Juvonen, famous for the Finnish format of the Topchef2013 contest. On the seafront, the stefans steakhouse restaurant is also located, specializing in steaks from the meat clipping of the Vagu Bulls. Opened Stefan Richter Restaurant, familiar to all on the American version of the Top Chef culinary contest.
Near the Aurasilta bridge, the Tinta wine bar is open (ITainen Rantakatu, 9), in the kitchen of which hosts the participant of the Topchef2012 contest - the chef Joseph Youssef. The menu is varied: meat melting on skewers, delicious pizza and elegant salads. Try, for example, Lebanese barbells kebab, resembling a cook about the native places, or pizza with a filling of smoked salmon with feta cheese. However, without good wines, the picture will be incomplete. Choose, in the assortment more than a hundred wines.
In Tinta, all components of a good restaurant have developed together. The interiors are beautiful, the atmosphere is free, the menu is representative, the staff is competent. And for his wine card in 2013, Tinta received the title of the best wine restaurant Finland.
The originality of the Cultural Center Logomo, located near the Central Railway Station, causes admiration. Logomo was created in the walls of the old depot, the first workshops of which they saw the light back in 1876. The cultural center opened a dining restaurant and a banquet hall Logomo Kitchen (Koydenpunojankatu, 14). Come here to have lunch in an inspiring atmosphere, try baguettes with filling or fresh pastries. During events in the Logomo Kitchen, a separate menu, and we recommend ordering tables in advance. Erik Mansikka, a restaurant chef, won the Title of the Chef of the Year in the Cook of the Year 2013 Culinary Competition and took part in the Suomen Hells Kitchen 2013 known to the entire Finland "hellish battle" of Suomen Hells Kitchen 2013.
If you want pleasant surprises, I recommend purchasing a Food Walk tasting card. The map gives the right to a free tasting portion in five restaurants involved in the project. This is a Café Ary, restaurants Pinella, Grill It!, Marina, Smor and Svarte Rudolf ship. The map is sold in the center of tourism and the Congress activity Turku Touring.
I advise lovers of culinary impressions to get acquainted with the pop-up restaurant Kipina in Kustavi. At certain days of July-August, four chefs will prepare here island dishes each in their week and according to the personally drawn up menu. The project involves three Finnish and one European chef. The table is better to book in advance.
Fans of the Crophecoma Café Art (Lantinen Rantakatu, 5), which holds the Haahti family in the Aurajokiranta quarter since 2004. The title "Barista Year" got a virtuoso from Café Art annually, with the exception of 2006. Indeed, Café Art Cappuccino is already a concept! The brother of the owner of this cafe owns the only coffee in the city in the city roasting coffee, so the "dynastic control" is maintained in the product all over the way from the grain to the cup. As a souvenir, I advise you to purchase freshly frozen grains or coffee from freshly ground grains at Turun Kahvipaahtimo.
Restaurant Mami (Linnankatu, 3), which is among the top ten in Finland, is faithful to its reputation from year to year. Thoroughly cooked simple dishes, friendly service and an excellent location near Vahatori Square speak for themselves. The summer terraces offer beautiful views of Vanha Sustructori Square and the Cathedral. Great room for lunch.

Recently in the Martti quarter, a new restaurant Sloppy Joe (Martinkatu, 3) has opened near the MYLLYSILTA bridge (Martinkatu, 3)! This is a fast food restaurant Mexicano-California cuisine offering fresh portions from fresh high-quality products. Here even buns for hamburgers bake themselves, yummy! The restaurant has a license for the sale of alcohol, portions can also be ordered. On weekdays, a mexican buffet works.
Restaurant Kado Sushi (Eerikinkatu, 16). Many believe that the best sushi is doing here. The restaurant works in the walls of the indoor market, built back in 1896. A small restaurant guarantees you an incomplete service and lightweight healthy dishes from fresh ingredients. Especially recommended this institution, as a place for lunch. After all, Kado closes with the covered market and does not work in the evening. Fortunately, here you can order Rolls and sushi sets with yourself.
