After a great summer, Tuljak\u2019s success continues on into autumn.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tuljak<\/strong> was once a popular caf\u00e9 during the Soviet period and now the same guys behind NOA and OKO reopened the Tallinn institution this past summer. It\u2019s no wonder the place was an overnight success, it\u2019s got one of the best terraces in the city overlooking the water. We visited on a cool night in September, and while the terrace is now closed, the restaurant showed no signs of slowing down for the winter season.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a bit tricky to find your way to Tuljak if you\u2019ve never been there before. It sits atop a small hill and you actually have to go around the side to find the entrance. Hint, it\u2019s not the first door you see, that\u2019s the kitchen. The restaurant offers a beautiful panorama over the bay and a view of the Old Town in the distance. The sun sets through the windows and lights up the room.<\/p>\n The menu is divided into three parts: snacks, appetisers, mains, and desserts. We tried the salted mackerel to start with radish, onion, and soy mirin sauce. The dish was a bit of an Asia-meets-Eastern Europe fusion that worked – with each bite of the salted mackerel one expects pickled cucumbers on the side, but the soy mirin sauce was a pleasant combination. Next, if you\u2019re looking for a fancy schnitzel, this is the place to come. The veal schnitzel \u201cROS\u00c9\u201d was served with apple pur\u00e9e, horseradish, and stump mushroom salad. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this is a dish we would come back for. Save room for dessert and try the Tuljak tiramisu with blueberries.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Location<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Tuljak Restoran<\/strong><\/p>\n
