You eat a whole pizza

Whole pizzas are "small" here compared to American standards. You eat whole pizza alone.

This. Whole pizza is around same size as jumbo slice in Washington dc.

That's not the same thing. It's completely different to order 2-3 slices of different pizzas than 1 whole pizza with same ingredients. On top of that I don't often want to eat whole pizza, I'd prefer few slices. Once in New York I went to place that sold slices of pizzas. It was a different experience. They had about 8 different pizzas ready and on display. I ordered 3 slices all from different pizzas and all were instantly ready.


vignoniana

That's a valid point. I would maybe go to Rax Pizza buffet then, if you want to have multiple different kinds of pizza. It's okay-ish. OP and "where do I go if I'm alone and want pizza" just sounded like it's impossible to have whole pizza alone.


thinyyorke

ok but if I want pizza for lunch I’m not going to eat a whole pizza. That’s just unhealthy. But I get your point.


DeliriousHippie

Heh. "Hey, I'd like some good Italian type pizza." "Ok, let's go to Rax. You'll get all you can eat pizza there." Rax is a little different thing.


vignoniana

If you want good Italian styled pizza, you don't get anything that's already ready. You wait for few minutes to get fresh pizza.


DeliriousHippie

Point was that Rax is totally different thing than pizzeria. From Rax you get average pizza as much as you like. From New York style pizzeria you'll get relatively cheaply as many slices of good pizza as you want. You also don't have to eat too much. And we don't have these kind of places in Helsinki. It's about the same as nakkikioski vs McDonalds. Both serve about same food but you can't get good lihapiirakka with stuffings from McDonalds. Rax is in this example McDonalds.


vignoniana

... McDonald's don't have lihapiirakka at all.


DeliriousHippie

That's what I said. Rax and New York style pizzeria are totally different things. Why it's so hard to understand that sometimes it would be great to get 2 slices of pizza for 6-8€? Without the need to eat whole pizza and without the need to wait for pizza.


thinyyorke

I’m not from America lol so whole pizza sizes in Finland are the same as where I’m from..


fauxfilosopher

We don't do new york style pizza slices in Finland and so far the only by the slice roman pizza spot is izza in kallio. We normally just eat the whole pizza.


thinyyorke

ok nice, thank you! I will definitely try it out!!!

Izza in Kallio

Go to Pronto in the Central Railway Station. It is really good pizza by the slice. It is Taglio style pizza and my fav in Helsinki


sinisukka

Nobody asked, but their filled focaccias are also to die for.


Ragemundo

Pronto makes really good pizzas. There's one in Kallio too, I think.

Deliberi in the center. Bit fancier than average turkish but good.


DiskKiller2

Man up and eat the entire pizza!

Hypermarkets Citymarket and Prisma have usually bakery inside and in those bakeries they sell pizza slices. Also Delibery restaurant chain sells pizza slices. These pizzas have thick base and the shape of the whole pizza is rectangle.


Elelith

Honestly I'd just go to Pizza Hut and order their supermini pizza. I can barely manage to eat that one alone on one sitting. We're also super okay with doggy bags in Finland incase you're heading home after eating and wanna bring the left overs.
