New Summer Dishes for Finnair

To celebrate the 8th anniversary of its Singapore-Helsinki route, Finnair is launching a new summer menu created in consultation with the airline’s signature chef, Tommy Myllymäki.

The new summer menu will be available to Finnair customers flying the Singapore-Helsinki route in business class from June 6 to September 5, 2019.

Nominated chef of the year in Sweden and creative director for five Stockholm restaurants, Tommy Myllymäki has been a Finnair Signature Chef since 2017.

The dish created by Chef Tommy Myllymäki – salmon tartar served with marinated mushrooms, fresh trout roe and sprinkled with fried onion – will be served on Finnair’s Midnight Menu as a starter course.

Alongside this dish, mains of pan-seared perch with chilli-lemongrass sauce, bok choy in Balinese sauce and rice with sweet potatoes; and braised beef cheek with red wine sauce and mashed potatoes with truffle, carrots and pearl onions will be served. Kikorangi blue cheese and Brie will accompany the courses, and a choice between ice cream, petit fours or fresh fruits are offered as dessert options.

 “We´re excited to bring the best of Nordic flavours on board”, says Maarit Keränen, head of category (F&B), who oversees Finnair’s long-haul flight food concepts. “Food plays a key role in the customer experience, and we are delighted to offer a little piece of the Nordics to our customers, who fly with us every day from Singapore to Helsinki.”
