La Cocina – Delicacies from the northern Spain
Updated May 9, 2007: The restaurant has moved to Hotel Glo on Kluuvinkatu.
La Cocina is a premium Spanish restaurant in the Palace hotel complex on the seabank next to the old Market Square and other poshy stuff in Helsinki. The window tables have a magnificent view towards the sea and Suomenlinna fortress.
The dark chocolate brown walls, the red glass dividers and the wooden floor create a subdued atmosphere for enjoying your company and the food. The menu has a lot of influences from Catalonian and Basque traditional foods.
Talking of the food, this restaurant is clearly the best place for savouring a few tapas (or pintxos, as they are called in Basque). The portions are tiny but really really delicious. The main courses are not bad choices either and the fine dining continues all the way to the marvellous desserts and coffee.
