🇫🇮 Visit Helsinki 🍴 Highly recommend Pastis

🌟 Instant Paris Vibe: This Helsinki French Spot Had Me Swooning Stepping into this place was like teleporting to a Parisian bistro—think rattan chairs, brass lamps, and the clink of wine glasses 🥐🎵. The best part? People actually talking (loudly, but in a charming way). After months of Finnish silence, this noisy buzz felt like freedom 😌. 🐌 Escargot: Authentic but... Meh Ordered the classic snails, expecting to wrestle with shells Instead, they came pre-shelled, swimming in garlic butter. Flavor was okay—garlicky enough, but missing that "OMG" factor. Maybe I missed the fun of the tool kit? 😐 🐟 Catch of the Day: Sea Bass That Stole the Show The daily special was a whole sea bass, grilled till the skin crackled and flesh flaked like butter. Served with lemon-dressed greens and a side of fennel 🥦🌊. Pro tip: Squeeze extra lemon over it—brings out the ocean freshness. Would order this 10/10 again! 🥩 Grilled Beef Flank Steak: Tender AF Cooked medium-rare, this steak was so tender my knife glided through like butter. The herb rub added a woodsy kick, and the side of truffle fries? Decadent but worth it 👌. Only complaint: Wish the portion was bigger! 🍷 Sweet White Wine: A Love-Hate Situation Paired the meal with their recommended white—think floral notes and a sugary finish. I loved the sweetness, but my friend thought it clashed with the steak. Maybe ask for a drier option if you’re not into sweet wines 😋. 📍 Final Verdict: 4/5 Stars for Paris in Helsinki Not perfect, but the vibe alone is worth the visit. Come for the sea bass, stay for the noisy chatter that reminds you life’s meant to be loud. Just don’t expect mind-blowing snails 🤷‍♀️. #HelsinkiEats #FrenchCuisine #ParisInFinland #RestaurantReview
