kulta koti


Twice a week they serve a soup lunch at the Kulta Koti, the Finnish Home. This was very convenient for me as I can work in my home office in the morning and then stop for lunch on my way into the downtown office. The folks in the home got used to my stopping by, and now I find that I am expected. This is a photo of me taking a photo of the front entrance. Today's soup was potato and bacon, always with rye bread, and always the coffee is served with pullah (spelling?) a Finnish sweet bread flavoured with cardamon. I have wondered what is the historical reason for the use of cardamon which, I don't believe, native to Finland.
