The shopkeepers were all friendly and took the time to answer my questions. There is food and also some local vendors for things like wool blankets which seemed well priced from what I saw elsewhere.

Amazing fishmonger in Old Market Hall! This seafood market…read moresells lots, and lots of fish. We're talking about a huge variety of different types of fish, all locally caught, and prepared in a mind boggling array of different styles. They've got cold smoked salmon, hot smoked, salmon with different herbs, spices, salts, peppers on it. They have fish that I've never heard of, as well as eels! You can get the fish raw, to take home and cook later, or premade fish that are ready to eat on the spot. We got a variety of different smoked salmons on rye bread that was some of the best salmon I've ever had! They offered a bunch of pickled fishes as well. They are friendly, and answer all your questions about the fish, and are helpful in cutting up the food for easy sharing or transport. All of the fish looked and smelled fresh. The quality of the food here is some of the best I've ever seen at a fishmonger! This place is among many other fishmongers and seafood markets in the Old Market Hall, but this one really stood out! You can take your food takeaway, and eat in the center of the food hall under the giant mirror- that's the common eating area.

I came alone, so I didn't get one of the tables with a view, but that's just what happens with travelling alone sometimes. I made a reservation to be sure as I wanted 7pm on a Saturday night. If you like Nordic food then this place will definitely make you happy. Toast skagen to start: comes in two sizes, I took the small and it was very generous. Whitefish, pureed potatoes and cauliflower for the main. Lovely cream sauce and the potatoes and fish were perfect. I didn't like the grilled cauliflower at all. Strawberry and rhubarb fraisier for pudding even though I was already stuffed. Very good service. I would return in a minute if I ever visit Helsinki again.

The shops sell things ranging from crafts and souvenir to fresh produces like berries and veggies and cafe food. It's a nice quick stroll to see Helsinki life :) (though many tourists come here more than locals I think). Pluses are that there's no entrance fee but, as a big foodie fan, I wish they have more selection for edible food to try out!

We got the red broth fish soup or boullabaise soup. It was pretty good. There were mussels, little shrimps (scampi) and big chunks of salmon inside. For 13 euros I thought it was not bad as there was lots of ingredients. The taste was definitely on the salty side. But the fish was perfectly soft. The bread and the basil oil sauce (they make in house) is really rhe highlight here. I could probably eat baskets of this bread (very dangerous) and the basil oil is very addictive. Overall not a bad experience. The service was friendly enough and the food was hearty and warming to the soul. Get extra bread. You'll need it.

The classic Finnish soup to try was the Creamy Salmon Soup, made with chunks of scallion and potatoes in a creamy soup flavor with scallion and dill. At the counter, you could help yourself to unlimited servings of sourdough bread and dill oil for dipping. Though nothing too spectacular, the food overall made for a simple yet tasty meal. Strangely, they charge 2 euros for an extra spoon or bowl for sharing, and another 2 euros for "Soupersize."
