Frommer's Review

One of only three Michelin-starred restaurants in Finland, this gourmet citadel is glossy, elegant, famous, and undeniably posh. In 2006, it moved into new headquarters, with 56 seats and a contemporary decor outfitted in earth tones, on Richardinkatu in the heart of town. The restaurant is the culinary showcase for Hans Välimäki, one of Scandinavia's most outstanding chefs. From first-class, market-fresh ingredients to the elegant decor, Chez Dominique represents dining at its finest in Helsinki. The only restaurant that rivals it is the also-recommended G. W. Sundmans .

Appetizers are creative and imaginative, the best examples including a terrine of foie gras with a duck confit and a side of shallot ice cream, and slightly smoked tuna with a gratin of Granny Smith apples. Main dishes include roasted turbot with garlic sauce and a potato risotto, medallions of lamb with sautéed chanterelles, and lobster tortellini with vanilla and anise sauce.
