This is the best food video on Europe or perhaps anywhere that I have watched ever on youtube. I am stunned you do not have 1000 times more subscribers, good luck.
I live in Tallinn and I haven't been to most of these :) But I can recommend some bangers (I'll use their google maps names): Pub Kompressor - for the amazing pancakes Restoran Olde Hansa - for the traditional mushroom soup in bread bowls Pizza Americana - for their nice thick delicious pizzas Reval Cafe - for the atmospheric cafe (expensive tho, but to look around its free) Kanuti Ramen Bar - for their scrumptious ramen and lemonades which are made like cocktails All of these places are in or around the old town, don't miss out!
Not surprising, residents of a city are usually too buisy working and living the day to day life to enjoy the touristy stuff. The best way to experience the real life of a country is to be the guest of a local family.
I've been watching your videos as I plan a trip to Tallinn in September and I've definitely added a couple of these spots to my list of places to eat! Thanks so much for your work putting this together. Very excited to eat as much herring as possible. :)
Great and helpful UA-cam channel - thank you very much for the useful advice in this and the other videos! I am very much looking forward to my trip to Tallinn. What would interest me is: How do you tip "correctly" in Estonia? And what if you pay by card? Should I have a few coins ready? Do you tell the service the rounded up amount (as in Germany) or rather leave the money on the table (as in France)? Aitäh! 🙂
Paying by card is widely accepted in Tallinn and Estonia. It's always handy to have a bit of cash, but you can survive with card payments only. Leaving a tip of 10% of the total bill is quite common (at least during the dinners).
As an Estonian, i can comfortably say that Estonia as most Baltic/Nordic countries does not have a "mandatory" tipping culture so there's no right or wrong amount. You can tip whatever you feel like, if you've truly enjoyed your experience and the service, but in general, unlike America, service staff generally gets paid fairly ok, they don't depend on tips to survive, but i'm sure they are always grateful for an extra.
Your videos are amazing. Visiting Tallinn in December. Cannot wait. If we happen to see you, is it OK to say hi? Really excited. I have been wanting to go there for so many years, I have lost count 😊
aaahhhhh this makes me wanna go back to estonia. 🇪🇪 last time been there in 2019 before shit hit the fan .. absolutely love "kehrwieder" café best cakes in town. 💯 thank you for the inspirations for the next trip 😉🥰
Time hasn't stayed still in Tallinn. Various World cuisines have emerged here. Some traditions have been fused with local ones etc. So you'll find places that offer hummus and pita, some places throw a local spin on them and some serve more traditional replacements. The point is that the food scene in Tallinn is rich, food is often local, fresh and very high-quality.
Not really. This is called "leopard spotting" in pizza making, where these black dots form on the outer crust, or _cornicione_ in Italian. It is one of the hallmarks of a proper Neapolitan pizza. From the very quick glances, I cannot tell if they have ideal leopard spotting, but it looked quite close.
@@mert5047 Yeah, so I’ve had proper Neapolitan pizza in Napoli and all over Italy. There’s always some cornicione and that’s fine but when there’s more black than not it’s burnt. I have NEVER been served a burnt pizza in Italy. It happens all the time outside Italy. Those tomato “pies” are burnt (the trend started with Frank Pepes tomato pie and the blacker it is, the more likes).
Not Cheburek, the correct name ıs Çi börek and it’s Turkish 🇹🇷 , it is filled with minced raw meat and spices. I was expecting to see some Estonian delicious before I visit to Tallinn.
Completely inaccurate. Its a dish from the crimean Tartars. After a quick google search it says the Anatolian turks got the dish during the crimean war.

15:12 viru keskus pro-tip: while waiting for your food, go get a drink from the supermarket downstairs for 1/3 the price.

Pohjala is pronounced"poi-yala" It's a very Estonian word! Took me a while to get it right myself
24:49
مع أن أسم الدولة غريب إلا أنها جميلة
It was a burnt flat bread/nun bread.
I want to work in your restaurant
Why not trying some local food? Hummus and pita surely isn’t Estonian 🙄

Those black dots are not the sign of a “good bread” it the sign of them burning food. Several pizzas that came out of the oven were burnt.

My god- these were not herrings... These quite small fish are called räimed! The "Dwarf-herrings!" A major difference! 🤣
Is it really eat all the interest in life ?!?
No, yet this video is about local food offerings. Live with it!
