Gastronomic heptathlon
Had my very first meal in a Michelin Star-equipped restaurant.
The place: Carma on Ludviginkatu.
The occasion: bi-annual team day.
The food: a five course menu (supplemented by two additional chef’s surprises).
The highlights: quail stuffed with sweetbread (main course) and rosehip-spiked white chocolate cream (prequel to dessert).
The drinks: the wines recommended by the staff.
The oddity: many of the dishes featured plenty of foam.
The duration: three hours and change.
The verdict: Sold. And I definitely ought to look up the other star-recipients in Helsinki, this was a delicious meal.
