These two chefs from the northern islands of Estonia rock!

The place’s packed. Only locals. It’s very noisy but in a few minutes you join in.

The menu is based on fresh local products from the North of the country. Rhubarb, cauliflower, various root crops, Baltic fish and seafood, moose meat, mutton, boar meat, etc.

Moose tartare with red caviar is like really outstanding! With rosé wine? Kind of strange? Yes, but it’s really good!

Sous vide 100 min egg on the most delicate latka with violet potato chips is Awesome! Again with rosé.

Despite all this splendor, the place’s very liberal. It feels like you’re in Stockholm or Copenhagen. It has a very Scandinavian vibe.

Marinated cauliflower with cod (this is the exact order of priority) and slightly smoked yolk. Yes, please! With Chablis? Of course!

Waiters? — I adore them and I’m ready to trust them with my life! Meanwhile the restaurant’s full. Sometimes one of the cooks bring you the food. Why do you have to wait? Once cooked, immediately served.

You try to run out to smoke a cigarette, but they’re already bringing you caramelized cauliflower with some kind of local cheese in caramel and creamy sauce. “No smoking! No smoking! Please, have a seat!” And for your obedience they pour you some Piedmont Arneis. So you sit pretty and paw, you behave.

Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2006 is not exactly at the level it should be because of the lack of tannins and the dizziness it impose on you, but the lamb’s leg with béchamel and salad immediately restores the balance. Moutton-mutton. It can’t go wrong. It’s no tender New Zealand but a RAM! Which indeed tastes like a RAM!?????

Suddenly Estonian sweet apple wine’s coming from around the corner and you expect pretty much anything of it but what you feel on your tongue is Pedro Ximénez. Sweet sherry, raisin… I made a picture of it: produced and bottled at the Poltsamaa winery, Estonia, 500 ml 14% vol. No mistakes. And some sweet-sour dessert made of yogurt-cottage cheese and rhubarb with currant juice as a farewell combo.

K.O. Kaks Kokka wins! Well done!
