Every year around the beginning of July, we make a BEST OF REYKJAVÍK ISSUE celebrating some
of what makes Reykjavík-life worthwhile, posting some good entries into a hopefully neverending
discussion. The primary purpose of BEST OF REYKJAVÍK is celebration! It’s about big-upping stuff,
giving mad props to it and patting it on the shoulder. The following are some nice tips we pulled
from BEST OF REYKJAVÍK 2013 which you can read in full at www.grapevine.is
You can’t find a kebab in Reykjavík
that quite compares to what you
would find in almost any major
European city (and whatever you’ll
find is going to cost you more than
you would expect), but the Icelandic
ones still make for a pretty fast food
option—and they keep getting bet-
ter. By now Reykjavík has a handful
of kebab places with the latest one,
Mandi, opening last year right next
door to another one called Ali Baba.
Last year’s winner, Kebab Grill, is still
pretty good, but we thought the title
should return to Habibi, which took
the award in 2011. “Habibi is the only
kebab place that does proper spicy.
If you ask for spicy, you’ll get spicy,”
one of our writers explains.
BEST PLACE TO GO SEE A
MOVIE: BÍÓ PARADÍS
BEST PLACE TO STOCK UP
ON LOCAL FASHION DE-
SIGN: KIOSK
Best Of Reykjavík
When talent meets talent, beautiful
things happen. Throw in five more
blossoming young talents, and some-
thing like Kiosk is born. The seven
local designers that make up this
collective create all of the merchan-
dise and run the shop themselves,
guaranteeing one-of-a-kind local
designs that you won't find anywhere
else on Laugavegur. At least not all in
the same place.

Bíó Paradís is hands down the best
place to go to a movie. This art house
theatre always seems to have some-
thing exciting going on with regular
festivals all year round. During the
summer they have a series called
‘Cool Cuts,’ featuring six Icelandic
films shown with English subtitles.
This summer they are showing ‘White
Night Wedding,’ Sigur Rós’ ‘Heima,’
‘Children of Nature,’ ‘Either Way,’
‘Backyard,’ and ‘Noi the Albino’ (read
a review of this one elsewhere in the
issue). The theatre also has a huge
room with tables where you can drink
coffee or beer and play games or
catch the occasional concert.
