While Spring may have officially started a month ago, the best way to welcome it is by enjoying a three-course meal prepared by Estonia\u2019s top chefs out in the open, and the sounds and smells of a bonfire. Celebrate May Day in style at Estonia\u2019s Open Air Museum.<\/p>\n
Dubbed a \u201cpop-up restaurant\u201d, this long table seating many people will feature foods and delicacies provided by small-scale, local producers, and prepared by the best chefs in Estonia. Each course is guaranteed to highlight what culinary treats Estonia has to offer. The crackling bonfire and occasional wisps of woodsmoke will undoubtedly bring some nostalgia even to people who did not grow up in this coastal country by the Baltic Sea.<\/p>\n
Located at Kiige Square (\u201cswing\u201d square, named after Estonia\u2019s famous village swings) in the Open Air Museum, there will also be a small, open-air market run by the same producers whose products are served at lunch. Everything symbolising Spring in Estonia will be present, including birch branches in vases on the table, white tablecloths, and perhaps even the first appearance of the year of the mosquito.<\/p>\n
The Estonian Chefs Association will hold four seatings of their pop-up restaurant every hour starting at noon on 1 May. It\u2019s recommended to buy tickets in advance here<\/span><\/a><\/span>, or buy them at the gate. Doors open at 11:00. Read more about this unique event here<\/span><\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n
