Had a decently nice dinner last week to mourn over a steadily accelerating decline (or is it still a steadily declining ascent?) that nature has imposed on all of us. The menu consisted of:
- Lobster seasoned with rosemary and cold smoked salmon-sweet potato crème
- Fried scallop with champagne risotto
- Ox tail and sauerkraut
- Fillet of hare, Jerusalem artichoke and green pepper sauce
- Banana ginger cake, caramel chocolate mousse and mango sorbet
The letdown, if one can call it that considering the overall suberb quality of the food, was the hare, which without wine was left too much on its own without support. To call it a letdown, however, might be overstating it as it was by all measures still very enjoyable. The star of the menu, in my opinion, was the fried scallop, which was heavenly.
Sufficient to say, based on this experience I can suggest Carma as quite a decent place to have dinner if you're in Helsinki. The price for the above menu was a quite reasonable 69 euros, including two small treats from the kitchen.
