Toronto's Karelia Kitchen is a contemporary dining offshoot of one of the city's most iconic mid-century Scandi furniture stores, Karelia. Identifying itself as a "Nordic smokehouse and cafe," the spot serves up everything from open-faced sandwiches (a.k.a. Smørrebrød) to Danish meatballs (a.k.a Frikadeller) served with hearty sides including braised cabbage and potato dumplings. Chef Leif Kravis's gravlax recipe incorporates beets for a hit of colour and horseradish for a flavour kick.
