Tonight we are treating ourselves, baby 🍝🍷

Welcome to Episode #4 of our series “Top 10 Unique Places to Eat in Helsinki.”

When it comes to Italian restaurants in Helsinki, one really stood out.

Located just steps from Esplanadi, Helsinki Cathedral, and Market Square, is the kind of place that works equally well for a quick pizza, a date night, or a long dinner with friends.

We tried a bit of everything, and honestly, we’d recommend doing the same 😏

The highlights for us were definitely the pasta and the pizza. The pasta is finished inside a giant Parmesan wheel right in front of you, making the whole experience as spectacular as it is delicious.

The atmosphere is warm, the location couldn’t be better, and for a moment it almost feels like you’ve left Helsinki behind and stepped into Italy 🇮🇹

📍 La Galleria, Helsinki

Now tell us… who would be your food-loving buddy for a full taste of La Galleria? 👇

3 mistakes I would’ve made as a first-time visitor in El Salvador if I didn’t have a local guide... aka my boyfriend 🇸🇻❤️😁

1️⃣ I would’ve only gone to La Libertad.
Because that’s what almost everyone recommends online.

Don’t get me wrong, La Libertad is gorgeous and easy, but if I had only stayed there, I would’ve missed so much more of what makes El Salvador special.

2️⃣ I would’ve judged places to eat by how they looked.

As a first-time visitor, I would’ve probably chosen the nicer-looking restaurants and chains because they felt safer and more familiar as a foreigner.

Instead, Rodolfo took me to some very humble-looking local eateries that I would’ve never picked myself, and those have consistently served the best local food I’ve eaten in El Salvador 🤌

3️⃣ I would’ve completely skipped eastern El Salvador 😭
I thought it would be difficult to get to and that there wasn’t much to see.

Instead, it became one of my favourite parts of the country, with beautiful beaches and fewer tourists 😍

If you’ve been to El Salvador, what’s one thing you wish you’d known before your first trip? 🇸🇻👇
