There's a whale in my plate!

Putrefied shark meat. Sheep heads and testicles. Some of Iceland's traditional delicacies might challenge a few palates. But aside from these dishes, what we had were delicious meat, fresh fish, amazing potatoes and rich sweets. State of the art restaurants and incredible chef can be found here and there in this island. This is a small choice of my favourite meals I'd love to share with you.


Blue Mussels and caramelised crab and Rub23 in Avureyri




This little restaurant has "the view"! Gentle Café is located in the Husavik harbour it's perfect after a whale watching trip. The staff is super nice and food delicious!!


And now I have to spend a few more words about one of the most incredible dinner I have ever had. We've found Sjavargrillid restaurant just walking in Reykjavik city centre. We were starving and ordered a three-course meal. Well, it was a sequence of pure pleasure for both the eyes and palate, an unusual mix of ingredients well balance and combined, food designed in what was heaven. Gústav is a very talented young chef which I am sure will have success (the restaurant opened only in May!). And by the way, I had whale, and let me tell you is scrumptious!










Cakes? rich, soft, yummy, they were everywhere!!
