It is a sort of a guarantor of reliability and quality.

“The Baltic countries have very distinctive culinary traditions that they are proud of, the special climate conditions, and what is surprising is that through their excellence in managing seasonalities they achieve a stunning similarity to the Nordic gastronomy, at times surpassing it. If the Baltic countries and their cuisine continues to evolve at the current pace, it is definite that more and more people will be willing to discover Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, as countries worth a visit”, claims White Guide Editor in Chief for the Baltics, Anna Michelson Bodemark.
