Restaurant known for it's Liuskas (basically an oval pizza). Nice vibe in the new Kallio location. However, for the authentic experience, I recommend visiting their original location on an island called Liuskaluoto.

These are the people who started the Brunch craze in Helsinki. North African / Persian flavours in a quaint setting. Brunch is slightly pricy, yet popular for a reason.
They also have another location in the Kamppi shopping centre.

One of my favourite cafe's in the area (perhaps because it's so close and has cheaper coffee than most cafes in the area). This place offers a good value for money -brunch, doubles as an art gallery and triples as a vintage furniture store.
They offer mainly breakfast and brunch and home made delicious raw cakes.

Functionalist building by Viljo Revell, Heimo Riihimäki and Niilo Kokko, finished in 1936. It's one of the most iconic functionalist buildings in Helsinki alongside the Olympic stadium. The inner courtyard is currently under renovation, a new art gallery/museum will open there soon, located under the crust.

The music house. Perhaps not so pretty on the outside, but I hear the acoustics are pretty good on the inside. Houses my favourite Finnish classical orchestra RSO.

Nestled next to the Uspenski Cathedral, this Stora Enso headquarter was designed by famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. If you don't find it impressive, don't worry, just look at the Cathedral instead.

This old industrial area is now a cultural hub and the setting for Flow Festival. It's also the home of the modern cirkus Cirko. There's often something going on in the area during weekends.
