WHAT IS SMAKU?
Smaku annual events take place this year in Smaku’s original home town Porvoo as well as in Loviisa.
The original idea of Smaku is to show the festival guests by small special tasting portions “how the local restaurants taste”. To the Smaku tasting ambiance in each town one can get acquainted at a very low cost, since the event dishes only cost 5 to 7 euros. Only entrepreneur-driven restaurants and cafés are allowed to participate. In addition, we also want to familiarize the festival guests with small local producers as well as other entrepreneurs.
