Best Vietnamese food in town, with good price! If you are a fan of Pho, or Vietnamese food in general, this is your stop. Located a bit far away from the central but you can have a bowl of Pho for just 8 EUR, with the quality almost the same as if you have it in Vietnam.

Nice atmosphere, outdoor seating and free wifi. Coffee is ok with average price but cake is overpriced. However, locals love this place so if you want to get to know Finn, go here.

Drinks & Nightlife
Excellent view of Helsinki and Gulf of Finland. Drinks are good and staffs are nice. However you need to climb a spiral staircase to get on the top, kinda difficult if you are wearing high heels and short skirt.
