Episode of Icelandic foods
Tomo & Chouchou really enjoyed Icelandic foods in Iceland! Actually everything was good! We would like to introduce some of them.
Firstly, famous Icelandic specialty is "Lamb soup" which made with Icelandic lamb. Icelandic lamb soup doesn't have any special smell of lamb. It was very mild and it was easy to drink. Lamb soup made our bodies warm.
Fish are rich in Iceland, so they are good at cooking fish. For example, "Fish cake". Don't imagine a cake as dessert ! It's like a croquette or a doughnut made with mashed fish meat.
Surprisingly, we didn't recognize a particular fish smell.
We cannot explain the exact taste but it was just very good. We wanted to eat more !
Also, we recommend "Fish soup" made with lots of fish.
It's very thick soup and it's very tasty.
One day, Tomo & Chouchou went to the bar that serves soup. This bar has a good reputation of the reasonal price & good taste. They serve two different types of soup and change daily. We ate "reindeer soup" !
We had never tasted reindeer so we took advantage of it. Reindeer soup made our bodies warm and gave energy. It was very good. We didn't notice strong animal smell.
Lastly, Tomo & Chouchou stayed in Best Western Hotel in Reykjavik. We found a restaurant called "Harry's" beside the hotel. The server of this restaurant was very nice and friendly. Meals were also very good. Married mix-couple owns the restaurant. Asian wife cooks, so we can also find Asian meals there. We ate "fish & chips". It was really good ! As it was so good, we went there again ! At second time, we ate Icelandic "Lamb chops". Lamb meat was so tender and it was delicious !
FYI, Best Western Hotel was fine. We were satisfied with their breakfast and service. We could walk to the downtown so it was very convenient.
We didn't expect such delicious meals in Iceland before going there. We were totally wrong. Actually we didn't know Icelandic foods were good. We discovered that Icelandic foods were very delicious. Icelandic foods are basically simple. We can taste the ingredients. Because Ingredients were very fresh. Lambs were well-treated. Iceland protect their local foods. We love their mind. We can understand why Icelandic foods are tasty. It was a good discovery for us! We became a fun of Icelandic foods. :-)
Please enjoy and discover Icelandic meals when you go to Iceland !
