Episode 26: Nokka (Finnish traditional cuisine in Skatta)

Restaurant number 26 that I visit, is unapologetically been standing here for over 15 years. It still does the same thing, offers great finnish food made from locally sourced ingredients. 

In this episode I get to know to Perttu Nihti from Basware, who serves as the Chief Product Officer in the company. We get to talk a bit about Basware in the episode, but it is one of the most used expense management systems out there. Learn more about Basware from http://www.basware.com 

Due to the role of Perttu, we end up having a fruitful conversation around the topic of product management - one of the favourite disciplines I've had the privilege of doing during my career. 
This place is ranked 26th on the Top 50 restaurants in Finland list and I think that serves it well. Food is flawless, tasty and beautifully placed on the table. In fact, I might recommend a higher position for this restaurant - because it really was an enjoyable experience. 

We went for the menu, where the main course was Duck that was relatively recently captured - and that definitely was the highlight of the beautiful menu we enjoyed. 

I'd definitely make this as one of the alternatives when considering to answer the age old question: "What should I eat in Finland to get a good idea of what it is Finnish food like?"

One of the cooks will share his perspective on the story in the episode.
