Cafe Aamurusko is a nice neighborhood cafe with fresh and tasty pastries and a very affordable…read morebreakfast. My visits here have often been for the breakfast (porridge and fresh tasty bread you can fill with cheese, tomato, cucumber, egg) which I've enjoyed together with orange juice and coffee. During the summer the breakfast is the best as you can sit outside and watch the local life pass by. Many people seem to come here also for "dagen efter" breakfast and you can hear stories from the night before. Even when you visit during the winter in the mornings, the place may lack the huge amounts of people, but the place has a gathering of local men that have retired and gather here to share the latest gossip. It's actually quite funny to listen to because you get a wrap of the latest local news and it's almost like they compete to tell the stories best. After the breakfast I often end up buying bread home from here and during "laskiainen" (Shrove Tuesday) they also have the best shrove buns or semlas! Yum!

On advise of my contact at the office I was pointed to Salud. for 30 years Salud has been in…read moreTampere pionering mediteranian food in the cold north. The bodega Salud is a very cosy place and offers some specialities like gnu steak and pepersteak (200 or 300g) that should not be missed. After ordering you can get to the salad buffet to start your appetite and after dinner there is cheese and fruit to finish. The prices are a bit higher then average but the atmosphere and food is worth it. There is also the possibilty in one section of the bodega to go for Tapas which I did not try.

Bengol Curry is currently one of my favorite lunch places (I've never been here in the evening). It…read moreis nicely located in the Tullintori shopping center, facing the Tulli square. They have a menu that changes each day of the week - usually something chicken/shrimp/fish, something beef and two vegetarian currys. I often come here around 11 am or even a bit before when it's still quiet. The small portion has always been enough for me. Bengol isn't your usual Indian buffet but instead you: 1. grab your tray 2. fill a glass of water 3. take a small raita cup and a small salad cup 4. tell the waiter if you want large (9,50e) or small (8,50e) portion 5. pick which currys you'd like with the rice 6. choose whether to take the naan bread or not 7. pay 8. if you like spicy, add some mango chutney (yum!) and fresh coriander to your plate 9. sit down & enjoy 10. grab coffee 11. return your tray on your way out The currys are delicious. I like to come here at least once a week if possible. Edit: The naan bread used to "the best in Tampere" but nowadays it is just "Ok". But half a naan bread is still a nice addition to your meal. And don't you think usually the whole naan is just too big? I do.

This is by far the strangest kebab I have ever tasted.

I ordered kebab annos and thought that it would be very much like kebabs I have eaten before so I was very surprised when it was served with mustardsauce all over it. Otherwise the service was good and they have long opening hours. I got to use their wifi for free and they had real nice booths to sit in.
