Food
The Hoito Restaurant is well known for its Finnish pancakes. These pancakes (lettu or lätty in Finnish, depending on what part of Finland one is from) are thin and the size of a large dinner plate. Other traditional Finnish foods served at the Hoito include viili, karjalanpiirakka, karjalanpaisti, lohiperunalaatikko, pulla, suolakala, riisipuuro, kalakeitto, hernekeitto and Finnish weiners. Rye bread, baked at the adjacent Kivela Bakery, is also often served with meals.
The Hoito also serves a variety of other Finnish and Canadian foods. Unique among these is beef mojakka, which is a Finnish-Canadian beef stew, and a homemade veggie burger.

Famous quotes containing the word food:
“Arguably the only goods people need these days are food and nappies.”
—Terence, Sir Conran (b. 1931)
“Taking food alone tends to make one hard and coarse. Those accustomed to it must lead a Spartan life if they are not to go downhill. Hermits have observed, if for only this reason, a frugal diet. For it is only in company that eating is done justice; food must be divided and distributed if it is to be well received.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
“Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none; and whoever has food must do likewise.”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 3:11.
John the Baptist.
