I'd definitely do Ateljee Finne and Salve, then. Also, Chez Dominique for lunch is a great experience.

Also, if you are free some morning, do go to the Hakaniemen tori (Hakaniemi market place) and have a plate of porridge at Kahvisiskot (orange tent, a large coffee pot for a sign) for breakfast amongst the locals. Unique, fun, and cheap.

Kabuki is a good and fun Japanese restaurant. Farouge is a pretty good Lebanese place. They might also be worth a shot.

Cheers,
