The food in Reykjavik, no surprise, is heavy on the seafood. Lamb stew—for those cold days-- is also a popular dish. Be sure to check-out my Interview with Chef Fridgeir of Hotel Holt’s Gallery Restaurant. The Gallery Restaurant is said to be the best restaurant in Iceland—for over four decades now!
And speaking of Hotel Holt I loved this intimate 41-room hotel. I thought I was in an art gallery—not a hotel. Hotel Holt and Gallery Restaurant feature the largest privately owned art collection in Iceland. The building is truly an Art Gallery within a hotel. Snorri, the hotel manager, is more than willing to take guests on a short tour of the collection when he is available at the hotel.

If you’re looking for a unique gift—anything “fish skin” will do! I had a custom made spotted wolfish clutch made by local artisan, Arndis Johannsdottir. To browse her work and order your own purse, or bracelet, or bowl, visit www.disa.is
