Kynsilaukka Restaurant Garlic

Frommer's Review

Its name translates from medieval Finnish as "garlic," and that's exactly what you'll get here. The restaurant prides itself on its use of more than 20 pounds of Spanish garlic every day. You'll dine within a pair of cozy and consciously rustic dining rooms, perhaps preceding your meal with a garlic martini (chilled gin served with a clove of vermouth-marinated garlic) or a pint of garlic-flavored beer. Menu items are influenced by the cuisine of Russia, as seen in the grilled gratin of vegetables with garlic and sour cream, pike balls in garlic-flavored cream sauce, and filet steak with garlic and red-wine sauce. Desserts include cloudberry crepes with ice cream, which can be rendered more or less garlicky depending on how much garlic marmalade you add.
