Join a local family for dinner and experience the local life. Nothing fancy, nothing formal. Join a local family for dinner, enjoy traditional (and modernised) local cuisines. Learn about the local way of life and hear some stories about the Icelandic history and culture. Sit down like a family and have a simple, relaxed meal and chit chat about everything and nothing.
Here are some examples of a normal icelandic dinner
- the traditional hangikjöt (smoked lamb)
- bjúgu (smoked saugage)
- hamborgahryggur (smoked pork)
- grilled fish (seasonal and depends on what the local fished - trout, arctic charr)
- salmon (on the pan, baked, sashimi, sushi)
- plokkfiskur (traditional Icelandic fish stew with potato - usually using cod or haddock)
- traditional Icelandic lamb soup
- lobster pizza
- and/or any other seasonal food
