Olo 20 Years – Olo’s Former Chefs Return to the Kitchen
Olo 20 Years – Olo’s Former Chefs Return to the Kitchen
Saturday 10 October 2026 | Garden by Olo
Twenty years ago, Olo opened its doors and became part of a new chapter in Finnish gastronomy. Now, as we celebrate our 20th anniversary, we invite you to an unforgettable evening that will never be recreated.
For the first time, Olo’s Former Chefs Return to the Kitchen brings together the chefs who have shaped Olo’s story across two decades. For one evening only, each of them returns to create a single course – one that reflects their own era, their unique culinary signature and the role they have played in Olo’s journey to becoming one of the pioneers of Nordic gastronomy.
Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy an eight-course menu, with each course created by one of the defining chefs in Olo’s history. The line-up includes Markus Lattunen, Ilkka Lääveri, Eemeli Nurminen, Mikko Kaukonen, Heikki Liekola, Lari Helenius and Olo’s current Head Chef, Mikko Pakola. The evening concludes with a course by Pekka Terävä, founder of Restaurant Olo and Creative Director of Olo Collection, whose vision and craftsmanship have been at the heart of Olo since its very beginning.
This is far more than an anniversary menu. It is a journey through two decades of culinary evolution, friendship, shared ambition, and the story of modern Finnish gastronomy. Every course tells its own chapter, and together they create a story that can be experienced nowhere else.
The menu will be accompanied by a carefully curated beverage pairing, thoughtfully selected to complement the flavours and character of every course.
