Four Hands Menu: Stockholm x Tallinn
An exclusive Four Hands Menu where the kitchen teams from Fotografiska Stockholm and Fotografiska Tallinn create a shared menu together.
What happens when two cities, two kitchens, and two creative teams meet over the same stove?
On March 14, we invite you to an evening where Fotografiska Stockholm and Fotografiska Tallinn join forces for a shared Four Hands Menu. A unique guest collaboration where ideas and flavors move freely between the Baltic coastline and the Nordic forest, before landing on your plate.
Both Fotografiska Stockholm and Fotografiska Tallinn have been named top 10 in their respective countries for sustainable gastronomy by the 360°Eat Guide. For us, sustainability isn’t a side ambition, it’s the foundation of how we cook, think, and serve. This evening, you’ll experience how two award-winning kitchens interpret their craft together.
The Menu
Eight courses, with Tallinn and Stockholm taking turns at the stove.
The evening moves from grilled mussel and roasted leek to Nordic octopus, marinated Baltic herring, and Jerusalem artichoke ravioli. Flavors from sea and soil meet fermented elements, fresh herbs, smokiness, and deep umami.
The night concludes with an unexpected balance of freshness and depth. Tomato granita with gin, pear ice cream with chocolate and puffed buckwheat, and caramelized apple pie with ice cream made from last year’s chanterelles.
A menu that reflects the signatures of two kitchens, and what happens when they create as one.
Gerli Travkin
Gerli Travkin, Head Chef of the Fotografiska Tallinn restaurant, draws inspiration from the diversity of global cuisines and the art of blending local ingredients with techniques from various culinary traditions.
Passionate about vegetables and working with expressive, flavour-driven techniques, she has a knack for turning humble produce into absolute rockstars – playful, vibrant, and full of personality.
Pure, honest ingredients and a commitment to sustainability lie at the heart of her signature style; for her, cooking without waste is simply the right way to cook.
