Restaurants

Good food and drink form an important part in overall holiday enjoyment. In the Magic Land of Posio you can take a gastronomic journey stimulating the senses with meals from home cooked food to à la carte servings. Good flavours are part of holiday memories.

Delicacies are prepared using clean, local ingredients. Golden shaded cloudberries, other wild berries and herbs ripen in the intense Midnight Sun period of summer to become aromatic and healthy.
Why not try vendace simply fried, freshly salted or smoked? Reindeer meat just melts in the mouth when prepared, for instance as the traditional Lappish reindeer sauté or slices of reindeer jerky on top of rye bread.

The Magic Land culinary traditions include potatoes, whole-boiled vendace covered with a melted butter and onion sauce. Blueberry fool is savoured for dessert.

Many aim to take their holidays during harvesting periods for natural produce. You have to leave room in your rucksack for packed lunches, such as coffee and local pastries that really perfect the experience. In well equipped accommodation establishments there will be facilities provided for storing and hunting or fishing catches, or berries until the date of departure.

People wishing to dine in Posio are served by the restaurants of Hotel Posio, Peikonpesä, Posion Paratiisikoulu, Hotel Kirikeskus and Holiday Village Himmerki, the cafeteria at Pentik Mäki, the cafeteria operating at the foot of the Riisitunturi Fell, and the Korpihilla Delicacy Shop, a prized processor of natural products.
