Cari lettori, oggi vi porto a pranzo in un posticino davvero carino: si chiama Tertin Kartano e si trova poco fuori la citta’ di Mikkeli, nel lake district finlandese.
Tertin Kartano e’ una ex villa padronale di campagna ed ex fattoria, una di quelle grandi dimore signorili al centro di un latifondo, come ne esistono tante anche da noi, che davano lavoro a moltissimi contadini, mezzadri, servitori.
Oggi la fattoria e’ una moderna azienda agricola e la villa e’ stata trasformata in ristorante/caffetteria. Nella villa padronale si trova il ristorante principale, dove i tavoli sono apparecchiati in sale arredate nello stile tipico delle vecchie dimore di campagna, mentre in altre strutture arredate piu’ modernamente, come la serra, si trova la caffetteria.
Il bello di questo posto e’ che non solo il cibo e’ buono, la scelta e’ varia e l’arredamento e’ messo insieme con gusto: ma che nel menu’ utilizzano solo prodotti a km zero, spesso delle proprie coltivazioni. Ma il bello ancora piu’ bello e’ che alcuni tavoli si trovano proprio nell’orto e si pranza fra le verdure!
Tertin Kartano vale proprio una visita, se passate da queste parti, anche perche’ annesso alla villa, e precisamente nelle scuderie, si trova il negozio dove sono in vendita le loro produzioni: marmellate, composte, succhi di frutta, miele, prodotti a base di carne e pesce…
Infine, Tertin Kartano ha anche possibilita’ di pernottamento, per un’esperienza che va oltre il culinario; ecco il sito per maggiori informazioni: tertinkartano.fi/en/home/
Lunch in the Vegetable Yard.
Dear readers, today I will take you all to lunch in a fabulous place: its name is Tertin Kartano and is located just a few miles from Mikkeli.
Tertin Kartano is a former Manor House, an old big farmhouse in the middle of a country estate as there are many in Italy too, which used to employ numerous people as farmers, sharecrop-farmers and servants.
Today Tertin Kartano is a modern farm and the old buildings host a restaurant/cafeteria. In the actual manor house where rooms are furnished in the original style, there is a high level restaurant; in other more informal structures, such as the greenhouse, the cafeteria finds its ideal location.
As I said, the whole place is furnished with taste and the food is good, also because they serve locally sourced food, often from their own fields. What makes Tertin Kartano so welcoming is that you can actually have lunch in the vegetable yard, as a few tables are laid there!
Tertin Kartano is truly worthy a visit, if you happen to come this way; in the farmhouse former stables you can find a small shop selling various produce: jams, preserves, meat and fish products, honey, fruit juices…
Finally, Tertin Kartano provides accommodation too, to experience more than just culinary; here is their webpage for further info: tertinkartano.fi/en/home/

Mi piacciono tantissimo i posti come questo: tradizionale e innovativo allo stesso tempo. Già mi avevi convinta da subito, però devo dire che il fatto che sia anche possibile dormire lì è proprio la ciliegina sulla torta ❤️

Ciao Enza, scusa…mi ero persa la tua domanda. Secondo me le bottiglie erano solo decorative, ma se le si toccava emettevano tutte note diverse, essendoci erbe diverse e diverse quantita’ d’acqua. Buona serata!

In the bottles there were different herbs: rosemary, thyme…and I think they were just a decoration. Thank you Jesh for your kind comment. I wish you a great weekend too!
