Teurastamo is the new cultural oasis of Helsinki, located in the grounds of an old abattoir a few subway stops from the center. During the warm months it is a fantastic place to meet up and have a picnic with friends, relax in one of the many hammocks and take advantage of the big barbeque pit(bring your own coal!). On the premises there also a couple of eateries, from the industrial chic Kellohalli to Ho’s food, one of the few Chinese restaurants with authentic tasting food. The Ice Cream shop Jädelino has hands down the best ice cream you can get in Helsinki
