Spring holiday in Lapland with should include the many opportunities to enjoy the regional food ingredients at the local restaurants.

There are many restaurants in the Ylläsjärvi and the Äkäslompolo region that have a fine selection of regional food ingredients on their menu.  One such place is at the Ylläsjärvi, the name of the restaurant is called Pihvi Keisari. I visited the Pihvi Keisari during my spring holiday in Lapland and Ylläs during the March 2012, the service from the personnel was great, really genuine food service.  The food dishes that I tried was a regional tasting plate from Lapland (entree).  The food ingredients were really fresh and flavorsome, small portions of meat, fish, bread and pickles/sauce.  For the main course, I tried the white fish (siika) with a fennel nettle white wine sauce, and regional Lappi puikula potatoes, freshness, great flavors and texture, I was really pleased with that dish overall.  The dessert that I chose was a vanilla ice cream served with strawberry syrup, a refreshing combination of natural flavors.
