The giant’s plates
Food is a very important thing to us giants, almost as important as the forest. We like our food simple but tasty. We enjoy our meals full-heartedly, which is why we like to create the right atmosphere as well. At the dining table you may also notice that our character shows in the size of the food, too. You don’t often see cardamom buns as big as ours.
Giant’s Dinner
Giant Dinner is a personal taste experience prepared with heart. Each day’s own menu is put together and named according to the preferences of the giant, and we conjure up their experiential taste worlds by hand in our own kitchen. In every portion of food, you can taste the clean and empowering flavors of local food, seasoned with subtle nuances.
During the winter season from 21.12.2024 to 31.3.2025, our restaurant is open every day and you can enjoy a delicious daily menu in a beautiful atmosphere.
Please remember, table reservations at least 1 day in advance.

Restaurant with a view
For us, good food and a warm atmosphere go hand in hand. Our restaurant with a view is located on the second floor of the main building Taikalinna, in the dining room you can admire the mystically beautiful elements of nature, the glow of candles and the wonderful scenery that opens from the windows. We serve mouth-watering taste experiences for a dinner for two as well as for a larger group, not forgetting party drinks.
Local food
We love nature and all its flavors. We collect the mushrooms, berries and herbs. we use as raw materials from nature. When using other raw materials, such as fish, meat and root vegetables, we always prefer domestic raw materials and origin. We prepare the food portions in such a way that the end result is like a giant’s plate: coarse and clear, so that the raw materials can be clearly distinguished. Nature is important to us and we want to act in an environmentally friendly manner and respecting the principles of sustainable development.
The service was warm and the breakfast basket delivered to the cabin was a great start to the day. The hostess’s reindeer pie was the best I’ve ever tasted and the carrot jam was almost mind-blowing!

Giant´s Super Soup
"An inside full of warmth is best when you walk in the woods."
The belly filling Giant super soup is made from clean ingredients from the surrounding areas and seasoned with nuanced wild herbs. Energy giving cooking experience is primarily meant to be enjoyed in nature; listening to the hum of the forest on the stump, while watching animal friends from the trees. We pack the soup in a food thermos, which is easy to grab in a backpack and take with you on a trip. If necessary, we also serve it in our Makuhelmi restaurant. Available from Wednesday to Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm.
Remember to book 1 day in advance.
