The Company
Welcome to the Waffle Café at Tiittala Manor to taste a piece of the unique nature and cultural heritage of Sulkava and Lake Saimaa. With us, every bite tells a story! At the heart of our Tiittala Manor’s Waffle Café’s waffles or dishes are the ingredients, which come from local producers. Wheat flour from Rapio Mill’s stone mill and free-range eggs from Muurahaismäki Farm.
GEOfood menu
The classic of sweet waffles – the Strawberry Waffle – is topped with fresh strawberries from a nearby Kulmala farm or traditional strawberry jam from their berries, paired with our house-made creamy vanilla ice cream. For a more savory appetite, we offer a salty waffle filled with the fresh caught Kalakontti smoked vendace from the close, Saimaa pure and nearby waters.
