This tr00 restaurant has a tr00 name - Manala, what means "Devil" (see logo). It is a good restaurant at all points. Located in the very city centre right against Finland-Talo, at the same side with club Botta. It is a nice place with good food at reasonable prices. For freak gourmets there are certain points in menu, like reindeer and bear meat. And the biggest advantage of the restaurant is the ability to feed hungry people until 4 o'clock in the morning.

Zetor – is not just a common restaurant with good food, but it is a spiritual place. Zetor was founded and still owned by the musicians of the legendary group Leningrad Cowboys. Zetor is a model of famous Finnish tractor, a trademark. Restaurant with such owners has no rights to be usual.
Choosing dishes and waiting for them accompanied by reading menu, where all the dishes are described with vivid comments which, in fact, can not give the full picture of the ingredients. But it's rather amusing. All the dishes are truly Finnish and served in traditional way. So if the dish is mentioned as the Dish of the Finnish Prisoner in the menu, it means that the soup will be brought in crooked aluminium tureen.
PS: You should take into consideration that the restaurant is located in the farthermost corner from the main entrance. And all the other territory is the alcoholic bar with self-service.
PPS: Zetor is the favorite restaurant of the guys from Children of Bodom.

Iguana is s chain of bars&restaurants, where various bohemian persons (who have no opportunity to eat at home) usually use to eat. Actually, Iguana is a perfect place for boozing. But in the bar you can also find menu with a great variety of dishes for quiet reasonable prices (for example: beer - 5 euro, vegetarian paste - 7 euro). An interesting feature of that "restaurant" is the fact of taking orders directly by barman with paying straight away. In return you receive a ticket with a number of the table and wait for an order. The food is quiet good. And cider is as delicious, as everywhere.

Santa Fe is a luxurious Mexican restaurant located in one of the lanes in Aleksanterinkatu (at the same side with Suomalainen kirjakauppa).

Cafe Lasipalatsi is good for two things: location (the very center of Helsinki ) and its window (which give you a possibility to eat, chat, drink coffee, eat cake and at the same time to watch a slow city life). This cafe is multifunctional: you can order just a cup of tea here or have a full lunch with salad, different sandwiches and soup of the day. It depends on person, but we prefer to drink here latte while waiting for free internet access.

Cafe Java is an all around glassy cafe with cozy atmosphere, located right in front of Forum. In that cafe there's tasty coffee, which is rare thing in Helsinki. And during winter time when it is -30'C and there is a strong wind outside, Cafe Java offers delicious mint latte.

Cafe Engel is our favorite and perhaps the only true coffee house in Helsinki. You can find a great variety of coffee drinks in the menu and also a lot of tasty pies, cakes and other sorts of bakery. CrimsonDawn WebTeam prefers a cake with cranberries and coffee Engel.

You can enter the bar as from the street (the side of Simonkentta Hotel), so from the Forum. The dimpliest way to reach the restaurant is to enter from Forum roof-floor. Even we have never been to the restaurant we can say the bar is really good. During cold windy winter nights you can get the best glow wine (glöögi) in the city.

Cafe Kiasma is situated on the first floor of the famous museum Kiasma. In general it is rather common cafe: common sandwiches, cakes, pies and coffee for 2 euro.
