Much of Europe is known for its world-class food that people travel from around the globe to sample, but Finnish cuisine isn’t quite in that bracket – yet.
Visit Finland is keen to change that reputation and is inviting 16 participants to try the best of the Nordic country’s food. It’s hoping to add “Finnish” to the long list of European cuisines… think Italian, Greek, Spanish and French.
This September, the tourism body is hosting the lucky guests, serving up “Official Tasting Menus”, which will showcase the best eats from the country’s different regions.
The tourist board asked residents from across the world’s happiest nation which dishes and flavours they believe best define Finland and its unique areas.
After conducting the tasty research, they called on some of Finland’s best chefs to come up with the tasting menus.
