Have you tried bear?

I have been twice to the Sello Palace Hotel in Espoo, Finland in the last 10 days. It is not a bad hotel and is walking distance from our office.

The first time I was there I was surprised to see bear on the menu. I do not recall the details and did not try it that time either. My Finnish colleague explained that some Finnish restaurants buy one bear per year to make their menus a bit more exotic.

The hotel has rebranded their restaurant with a Californian theme - Paul's Bistro - with a larger variety of meals especially burgers.

The choice on the menu is larger but they have an especially expanded burger section to their menu.

At the bottom left you will see that they offer bear burger with some other things which I cannot translate. Since the menu was hard to scan I show a more detailed view below.

I must admit I was a bore and went for a chateaubriand steak. That was well-prepared, but both Finnish and British colleagues have recommended the bear burger...something for another trip!
