I love pancakes. Who does not?
I was visiting Kuopio city center one of these days after work,
and I felt like I was too lazy to go home to cook for myself. I was not really fancying
to go to a restaurant and eat all by myself, either. And then, I found a great
partner in crime to share my indulgence: Moomin.
If you don’t know The Moomin
family yet, let me introduce these adorable cartoons. Moomins are the main characters of the books
and comic strips created by Tove Jansson. There is not childhood in Finland
without it. In addition, Moomin products
are very well branded and you can find almost everything, -from clothes, towels
and decoration stuffs to forks and knives for the table.
Kuopio surprised me by establishing the first Moomin pancake coffee place in Europe. Location is
very good, strategically near the main shopping area and close to the market.
So, if you are visiting for holidays, you can just come to Kuopio city center
and you will find the place easily. There you can find pancakes and other kind
of coffee snacks such as pies and sandwiches. Of course, tea and coffee are
also available.

I have been there before, but this time I have the magnificent
presence of Moomin itself. As
I was replacing dinner with a pancake, I forced myself to eat a salty one. So, I
selected the salami, tomato and cheese pancake. That is risk taking for
somebody like me who believes in chocolate.

The pancake itself looks more like
a pizza than a pancake but, it was good. Of course, the pancake has the
brand price included but, I have no complains about the taste and the presentation.
The service was fine, too. It looks like there was only one lady running the
entire show, but it worked well in a non-rush hour visit. Food was served
quickly, the place was clean and calm. Despite of Moomin being a cartoon, the place
itself was decorate with a good adult taste.
