Shanghai Cowboy is back

Today the Shanghai Cowboy finally opens its doors again. With its modern Mexican-Asian fusion kitchen it is one of the best restaurant in town.

At the new location in Mikonkatu 4 in the basement of Könog Shanghai Cowboy also has a bar and a club that are open already since last week. Today also the famous kitchen opens again.

Drop by for their amazing food and stay to dance and party! Have a great weekend!

Dim Sum and tea

There are hundreds of Chinese restaurants out there. Most of them have quite similar and unspectacular food. But there is something new in town that makes Chinese food something special again.

Natural Flavour Tea House in Aikatalo is not just a place to have exotic tea. They also serve Dim Sum (Chinese dumplings). Normally three or four dumplings come together in a small basket and come with different fillings like pork, chicken, shrimp, fish or vegetarian mix. Natural Flavour Tea House is more of a lunch than a dinner place. But the Dim Sum also works well as a snack in between. Especially together with a nice cup of Chinese tea of your choice. Check out their lunch offers. They might be a bit higher than usually in Helsinki but are worth their price.

Check it out and enjoy!
