Missing home flavours in Lapland? Rovaniemi has Indian dining options and plenty of vegetarian-friendly choices, so Indian travellers eat comfortably.

Indian restaurants

Rovaniemi has a small number of Indian and Nepali-Indian restaurants in and around the city centre serving familiar curries, biryani, naan and vegetarian thalis. They're popular with visitors and locals alike.

Vegetarian everywhere

Even outside Indian restaurants, Finnish menus offer good vegetarian options, and supermarkets stock lentils, rice, spices and plenty of fresh produce for self-catering — handy if you have kitchen access.

Tips for Indian travellers

Ask for extra spice if you like heat (Nordic "spicy" can be mild), carry a few favourite spices if you're self-catering, and book ahead in the busy December season.
