Pro Tip: When shopping for groceries in Iceland I highly recommend going to either Bonus or Kronan. Both are easy to recognise because they are yellow. Much cheaper than the other supermarkets. Bonus is basically the Icelandic equivalent of ALDI. Keep up the great work Jess and Stephen, much love from the Central Coast, NSW.

Me and my boyfriend went to Iceland last June, and we went to an amazing restaurant, very small and cozy, in the center of Reykjavík, where they actually served soup INSIDE a big bread bowl, there was no dishes to make at the end except for the spoon. It is called Svarta Kaffið and deserves every 5 star we've given it! The people there were so nice and I've never eaten a better soup!

Usually with remoulade and some kind of cold cuts or fish. This video just made me crave it so much, and I'm so happy to be coming back home for a few days next month.
