Award-Winning Cuisine Among Finland’s Best

Restaurant Aihki has twice been featured on Kauppalehti Optio’s list of Finland’s top restaurants (2022 & 2023), earning an impressive 16+ rating. This recognition reflects the uncompromising vision of our Head Chef Anssi Riihimäki, whose dishes are both visually stunning and deeply rooted in local ingredients.

Anssi has shaped Aihki’s culinary philosophy by combining responsibility, Lapland’s pure natural ingredients, and the precision of modern Nordic cuisine.

Licence and wine cellar

Restaurant Aihki and the entire resort are fully licensed to ensure a complete culinary experience. In 2020, we built our very own wine cellar and we’re always happy to introduce its curated selection to our guests.

Lakeside Kota-Hut Dinner

In addition to our main restaurant, Aihki, Sunday Morning Resort features a lakeside Kota hut, where we serve traditional Lappish delicacies by the warmth of an open fire. The Kota seats up to 18 guests and is available for private bookings.

Sustainability at Aihki

We want to keep the North pristine: and nature is considered at every step through our sustainability programme. At Aihki, every dish is crafted with respect for the environment: we source ingredients locally, grow our own vegetables, and forage wild foods from the nearby forests.

Both Restaurant Aihki and Sunday Morning Resort are carbon neutral. We use a highly efficient heating system and maintain a six-hectare private forest that functions as our carbon sink. All waste is recycled, and biodegradable waste is composted on-site. The resulting compost nourishes our potato patch and vegetable garden, where we use only organic fertilizers. To minimise transport emissions, we rely on durable, high-quality textiles that are washed in-house.
