Best of the best in Finland
His restaurant "Chez Dominique" in downtown Helsinki is the best his country offers. It is the only restaurant in Finland decorated with two michelin mtars. Hans Välimäki is ranking No. 23 in the list of the 50 best restaurants in the world. Even if we find french classics on his menu he is also well-known as a chef of nordic cuisine. He puts his focus on modern interpretation of finnish dishes influenced by the proximity to Russia and the nature cuisine of the Sami nomades. Elk, reindeer, bear, fish and different berries out of the Tundra make some of these dishes sound unfamiliar to us. The young chef presents his cuisine with charme and humour. Names like “Wet Forest“ give us a sense and feeling what we can expect from his appearance.
