They were only offering salads and pasta dishes at the time, not their full menu, so we weren't able to try the burgers. My husband had the reindeer pasta, and he found it a little too salty, but he said the meat was cooked well. I had the zucchini and tomato pasta, and it was delicious. The prices were a bit high, but the food seemed fresh and well cooked, so overall we were quite pleased with our experience.

Lunch, anyone? THE…read moreplace to go in Otaniemi if you are hungry at lunch time. They offer various different sorts in a buffet. You can eat 'till you drop, tried it and it works. Beware of the pancake as a dessert, they are organic and yummy. I'd say Mau Kas goes easily on top 3 for luch time restaurants in Otaniemi. The food is good and well prepared. Remember to check the menu before you go so you'll know what you are getting into. Buffet around 10€ and salad and soup options less..

This restaurant MAU KAS just opened in Otaniemi in the same building as the hostel Forenom Kivimies…read moreand serves breakfast and excellent lunch. The lunch is a buffet with a choice of salads, a few warm dishes - always a vegetarian alternative available - and some dessert in addition to coffee to wrap it up. The restaurant also serves breakfast in the mornings 7:30-9:30, mainly for the hostel guests, but quite practical for us working at the campus too, but it's the lunch that is worth coming here fore. It didn't take long for the word to spread about MAU KAS in Otaniemi, around lunchtime there is already quite a lot of people, but with the additional two cabinets in use there is room for everyone. This hidden gem in Otaniemi is well worth a visit IMHO.

The atmosphere is nice and warm - mainly thanks to the lovely owner! I love that their dog and children hang out at the café adding to the cosiness. At the back is a tiny flower shop - what a combo! They serve excellent teas and coffees, as well as light meals like salads and quiches. They also serve brunch on the weekends. I must mention also the cakes: almost everything is self made and absolutely delicious. The ones that are not self made are carefully picked and usually from small local businesses. So why 4 stars instead of 5? The meals are quite light and often some friends with bigger appetite are left a bit hungry. A heftier option would be appreciated.
