Classic Pizza Restaurant – A pizza apart

Classic Pizza Restaurant is not a classic Finnish pizzeria with all clichés included: red and white tablecloth, a bit repulsive feelings, kebabs on the menu and so on… Instead. they serve only pizza and they know their business. None of the menu items are “traditional” choices, but more like contemporary versions of the famous pizzas.

The restaurant is located in Iso Omena mall, which is a shame as you can’t get there easily from Helsinki downtown. If you happen to be there for some odd reason, check the restaurant out. There was a queue — unheard for any other mall eatery — as the place is quite small. Once inside, the service was swift and courteous, and the pizzas delicious. My pizza goes to the personal top-three, other two being T8 in Shanghai and California Pizza Kitchen in Emeryville, California. Not bad.
