There is no food without culture and no culture without food.
Come learn how to do the most traditional delicacies of Finnish culture while listening how they became part of Finns daily life.
When you arrive take a walk around the magnificent nature surrounding you. The boreal artic forest and the river bay of the Rokua UNESCO geopark will inspire you for the class.
Then we will do the traditional "Thursdays soup", the most cherished salty pie in the country and a romantic decadent cake, along with traditional drinks.
