Liekkilohi
Next to market, tel. 050 3105 850, (http://www.liekkilohi.fi). the flagship floating restaurant of a franchised chain, the menu here is simple: pick either one of their trademark flame-broiled salmon, fried muikku, the un-finnishly immodestly named "world's best fish soup" not quite, alas for around €15, or go whole hog and get them all plus the amazing cold fish buffet with 17 types to sample for €35. prices may be negotiable if it's quiet and you're in a group.
Majakka
Satamakatu 11.
During the morning and afternoon, the best place to eat is the market square by the lake, where you can get Eastern Finnish delicacies like lörtsy meat pies and freshly fried muikku vendace, a type of freshwater herring.
