From Japan with Love in Pöllöwaari 18.-19.9.2026

A Japanese weekend at Pöllöwaari on 18-19 September 2026. Chef Riku Ruuskanen combines Nordic ingredients with Japanese techniques and flavours - the result is a carefully crafted menu where umami, freshness and fermented notes meet refined Finnish cuisine.

Dinner features ponzu-marinated fish roe, hamachi sashimi, clam chawanmushi and shio koji-grilled marbled beef from the outer fillet, concluding with matcha and vanilla ice cream with yuzu notes. Sommeliers Ulla and Anssi have curated a beverage pairing for the menu, with wines and sake accompanying each course.

The menu can be prepared dairy-free and gluten-free - please note that the menu contains soy. Other dietary requirements cannot be accommodated this weekend.

Menu 84.00 € / Beverage pairing 62.00 €. Table reservations at ravintolapollowaari.fi.
