Grill Market Reykjavik: best tasting menu in town

26 February 2013

Lava inspired interior design at this trendy restaurant in Reykjavik

When I went to Reykjavik for the first time I really had no idea what to expect… I expected lot of cold weather, weird landscapes, thermal baths and geysers. A thing I didn’t really expect was a very high standard food culture for most restaurant in Reykjavik! We ate at some great restaurants there on our short city trip. Grill Market is a restaurant in Reykjavik located right in the city centre and has a very cool interior design. Lots of Danish design items, mixed with furniture made of lava and wood. Love it! But the best thing: the great food :-). Grill Market has a farm to table concept and all the ingredients they use are local produce. You can even see the farmers they work with on the website. I can highly recommend try the tasting menu, it’s a surprise menu by the Chef to discover the best of the Icelandic cuisine with delicious meat and fish dishes. Please note to tell your waitress that you don’t eat whale meat, since it’s on the menu too (as in almost all restaurants in Reykjavik). Grill Market Reykjavik has an online booking system so you can book ahead to make sure you get a table at his trendy restaurant in Reykjavik.
