Never been there, but I heard it’s not so good. Good thing there are other restaurants nearby. 😃 I can bet my full screen name’s not been used for one of those things. Not so willing to bet on variations, though… ---

Finland [St. Urho’s Pub](http://www.allaboutbeer.com/features/246beerbars.html), Museokatu 10, Helsinki. Wide range in both draught and bottled beers. Finnish sahti is always available, and an annual sahti festival is held every May. Probably the most knowledgeable staff in town. Regulars include lots of Finland’s top classical musicians, as the bar is located next to the Sibelius Academy and the Finlandia concert hall. ---
