13 Finnish NHL players have invested in a local sports bar

Fat Tony's, located in the Vallila district of Helsinki, is currently Finland's trendiest sports bar. I've come across the place many times on social media, but yesterday I visited it for the first time. On weekdays, they serve lunch, which includes a good dessert. The lunch featured a delicious salad and a buffet.

Aside from its owners, the specialty of Fat Tony's is how high-end the place is. The interior design and details have been carefully thought out, and it's far from your average sports bar. The restaurant features a variety of games, screens of course, and even a children's play area. The place has definitely been designed with the whole family in mind!

Locals recommend booking a table for the evenings, as it fills up fast. A popular choice is the lobster roll for a starter, followed by wings, pizza, or burgers as a main course. People can also request games of their favorite teams to be shown. Every week, the restaurant publishes its own schedule.

The Finnish NHL players who own a stake in Fat Tony's are:
