- One of the first restaurants I ever visited in Tampere was Bodega Salud. A Spanish themed restaurant was the last thing I expected to find in Finland but it was a popular place with my colleagues. It is in a side street about 5 minutes walk away from the railway station and a similar distance from the river. It has a bit of a story behind... more
