Dining
Whether you crave the ambience of a charming bistro, the gourmet delights of an upscale restaurant or a hearty feast in a wilderness cave, Iceland’s diversity of cuisine and unique dining establishments will satisfy all taste buds.
Although Reykjavik offers an impressive range of international cuisine, the ultimate gastronomic experience is Iceland’s own culinary specialities. Indulge in Iceland’s gifts of the ocean such as fresh haddock and lobster or enjoy wild salmon and trout fresh from the pristine rivers and lakes. Savour succulent free-range lamb followed by crème brûlée made with skyr, a creamy Icelandic yogurt. Or sample some unusual traditional delicacies such as svið, singed sheep heads or hákarl, fermented shark which is typically paired with Brennivin, Iceland’s signature schnapps.
