Chef · Lapland

Mika Takkinen

“Less is more. Lapland’s ingredients, flavours from the world.”

Mika cooks by one rule: less is more. A few ingredients on the plate, each one given room.

The ingredients are Lapland’s own: lake fish, reindeer, berries from the forest. The flavours come from further away, a spruce ponzu here, a French dessert there, so a familiar northern table tastes new.
