Sometimes you just don’t feel like tasty Scandinavian minimalism, which is totally fine – except that it is everywhere.

Then you should visit the Madonna that opened with the intention to challenge the “less is more” belief with a “more is more” aesthetic.

This was created by Aino Brandt from the renowned design studio Koko3: rich sun shades, ornaments on the walls, a red marble bar, no wrong subtlety.

The cuisine is Italian, thin, crunchy pizza, ravioli filled with ox tail ragout, limoncello sorbet. Madonna mia!

The fresco on the ceiling is called “Pique-Nique”, shows a picknick blanket and was created by the young Finnish artist Karoliina Hellberg.
