Houkutus

Brasserie/Bistro

89

Glass display cases stacked with layer cakes, berry tarts, and savory pies greet shoppers who venture one block away from the market square. Houkutus (“temptation”) has baked here since 1989; today, three locations serve the city. The Mokkahovi cake is a favorite among locals.
