Ekberg

17.03.2012

Let's continue with the places where the local people go. Ekberg is a popular café in Helsinki city center, Bulevardi. Ekberg is a traditional and a bit old fashioned café with table service and French style pastries - maybe that's why mature ladies like the place. Ekberg's brunch is classic, they've been serving brunch long before brunching turned into a trend. Because of the brunch, on weekends the thirty-something generation shares the stage with the grannies.

Ekberg also has a take-away bakery shop right next to the café. So far it's the only place where you can get really good baguette in Helsinki. Also potato cakes (perunaleivos - yes, they look suspicious) and Napoleon cakes are delicious.
