Fujimi Tampere

Authentic Japanese food

Kaipo from Tampere

""Fujimi" must be the best Japanese restaurant in Tampere. A Japanese friend brought me here raving once and compared the food to his mother's cooking!"

There's enough sushi restaurants around Tampere, but none of them also offer what one would call "real" Japanese food. Even in Tampere, people would like to experience authentic cuisine from halfway across the globe, and luckily, Japanese restaurant Fujimi is an establishment that delivers!

The Tampere-born, Japanese owner and head chef made it his mission to spread Tokyo food culture in Finland, and in my opinion, he does not disappoint! The restaurant itself might not be a particularly large space, but the quality of the food is definitely grand!

The first time I actually heard of Fujimi was a few years back, through a few Japanese exchange students at the University of Tampere, whom I had befriended at the time. They took me to Fujimi, full of praise, and they even compared the food to their mom's home-cooking! If that isn't a compliment, I don't know what is! From time to time, I visit Fujimi together with my girlfriend on special occasions, enjoying a nice Torikatsu-don, a bowl of miso soup and karaage on the side!

Tampere Spotter Kaipo

About me I was born in the Philippines, raised in the Netherlands, and am now living in Finland. Traveling around is in my blood! I'm also a language aficionado, a writer, an artist, a dancer, a recreational cyclist and a bit of a novelty seeker! I don't shy away from researching and trying something new! I like discovering and exploring both nature and urban areas, e.g a park with a pond, a walking or cycling trail in a forest area, a curious shop or an interesting-looking restaurant, café or bar! I'm of the conviction that there's always something new to explore, no matter...
