Andante Helsinki

""Andante" combines two trends in Helsinki: raw cakes and a cafe-shop mix. It's also a cool flower shop with more than 20 years of history. Quality coffee too"

Andante combines two trends in Helsinki: raw cakes and a cafe-shop mix. Nowadays there are several different cafes within design shops, art galleries or a flower shop like Andante. Andante is also a flower shop with more than 20 years of history. 

Helsinki people were introduced to raw food and especially raw cakes quite recently with many cafes offering raw cakes and other raw treats. If you haven't tried out these excellent and healthy treats, now would be the time and Andante is the perfect place to do this at. Andante is located in the heart of Helsinki Design District so it is a must place to visit while wandering around there.

Andante is a fresh spot standing out from the Helsinki cafe scene. Andante is an especially good fit for all vegans since raw treats are one of Andante's specialities. I've also become a lover of raw treats, which my girlfriend is passionate about. Quality coffee and tea are also served. The place has a nice harmony with fresh flowers and a unique cool decor.

Cafe Papu

Neighborhood cafe with Vietnamese touch

"Cafe Papu" is one of my favorite places in Helsinki. The reason? It's one of the few places that serve Vietnamese Bánh mì sandwiches.
