Zinnkeller is a German restaurant in Kruununhaka, Helsinki, Finland. It was founded by chef Wolfgang Wiegand in 1980. [1] [2] In autumn 2016 ownership of the restaurant was transferred to Wolfgang Wiegand's daughter Nina Wiegand, who had been working at the restaurant since 1996. Nina Wiegand was educated as a kindergarten teacher. [3] [4] [5]

Zinnkeller is located in a house built in 1895 at the corner of the streets Liisankatu and Meritullinkatu, designed by J. Rosenberg. [6] The dishes in the restaurant come from such places as Berlin, Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg, Baden-Württemberg and Schwarzwald. Part of the ingredients in the kitchen as well as all the wines and beers come from Germany. [7]

As well as the asparagus weeks, the restaurant features Martin's goose [8] [9] and Spanferkel, a whole grilled pig. Annual themes include Oktoberfest held in autumn. [5]
