Hand-pulled noodles made by awarded Chinese chefHand-pulled wheat noodles made fresh every day and served in a small, crowded space. The dan dan noodles are - rightfully - most popular. Hot and spicy, with loads of chili oil and Sichuan pepper, but still very balanced. Shanghai noodles with shrimps and spring onion oil are also great. And don’t miss out on the sweet, marinated radish.
Eromanga Oy is a traditional lunch café-bakery known for its 'lihapiirakka', a local meat pasty. The café is a popular spot for locals and workers alike, serving a variety of pastries, including the doughnut-like deep-fried pasty filled with rice, minced meat, and onion. Established in 1946, Eromanga Oy continues to be a significant part of the food and social culture, offering an authentic experience with its savory and sweet offerings.
