Restaurant reviews

Mai Tai is a bit more locally oriented watering hole next to Hua Hin Hilton on the tourist district. The price levels are quite the same as in surrounding pubs, but the atmosphere is different. However, don't expect to have any "authentic" Thai experience, but more like of a bit shabby bar, televisi... More >

Mamma Mia! is an European owned and operated restaurant in the heart of Hua Hin tourist district. They focus solely on Italian food and this sets them apart from the rest of the crowd.

The food is good, tastes like real Italian and it is relatively inexpensive, too -- albeit not that cheap as in ... More >

Restaurant Maruseki is an odd deviation from the norm in the line Finnish shopping mall restaurants; it serves sushi and it tastes good. I know only one other good / decent sushi restaurant in Finnish malls, Ichiban in Kamppi.

Anyhow, the restaurant is located in the "old town district" of Lempä... More >

Ravintola Matala is one of the better restaurants in Oulu. The food is good, but not maybe superb.

The service is prompt. The kitchen is adjacent and thus visible to the dining room, so you can watch chefs preparing your food.

It is, however, an excellent place to have a drink or two when doing a sight-seeing around the to... More >

If you are looking for something fast and small to eat, check out New York Deli / Coffee World / Pizza Corner restaurant in Sailom Pavilion minimall on Darmern Kasem Road. The place does not serve any Thai food, so it may cure homesickness, too.

There are three counters in the restaurant, one for... More >

Nori Sushi is a small sushi restaurant in the old market hall in the centre of Helsinki, next to the old market square. The place looks quite picturesque and you can spot the market hall shoppers while savouring sushi and sashimi.

Unfortunately, the quality of the sushi is not in appropriate leve... More >

Paul's Bistro is a refreshing restaurant in shopping mall Sello. Located on the newly opened Hotel Palace Sello, the restaurant provides an oasis for shoppers. However, it is not accessible inside the mall, and thus it is not crowded as the rest of the restaurants. Being twice as expensive as the re... More >
