Introduction

Pompier brings something warm, comforting, and delightfully unexpected to the Helsinki Christmas Market. Drawing inspiration from Tuscan street-food traditions, we serve golden, deep-fried coccoli dough puffs—crispy on the outside, feather-light on the inside—reimagined with our signature culinary touch.

Every serving is paired with our house-made, velvety stracchino cheese. Our coccoli come in three indulgent variations: a vegetarian classic with creamy stracchino and aged pecorino; a Nordic-inspired edition with delicate cold-smoked salmon; and a decadent sweet creation, the ”Tarte Tatin Coccoli”. In this festive dessert, the warm, crisp dough puff is layered with caramelized apples, hot golden caramel, soft vanilla cream, and finished with a delicate dusting of savory pecorino cheese.

To complete the experience, we serve a steaming apple winter warmer crafted with Pompier’s proprietary whiskey and festive spices. At Pompier, dining is about atmosphere, genuine craft, and memorable seasonal magic!
