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 never-ending
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.
This little Italian-style gelato shop in Gran-
di has been open for just over a month but
it already has locals frothing at the mouth
and standing in long lines for a couple of
scoops. That’s no coincidence: The menu
is an everchanging smorgasbord of crowd-
sourced flavours picked by Facebook fans.
They serve freshly baked waffle cones.
And the staff outfits are charming. Yup,
Valdís is just the ticket to bringing a bit
of sunshine to the cold and grey summer
we’ve been not enjoying lately. We look
forward to seeing Valdís thrive and pros-
per; thank you, Valdís.

BEST PLACE FOR HIGH
FASHION:
KRONKRON
Best Of Reykjavík
Anyone who has fallen under the impres-
sion that “high fashion” is synonymous
with minimalistic designs for major prices
needs to stroll over to KronKron. This high-
end shop is refreshingly colourful and
pattern-happy. The stockings that hang
on the centre display could easily double
as art pieces, the same goes for most of
the clothes in there. KronKron was opened
in 2004 by Hugrún Árnadóttir and Magni
fiorsteinsson, who double as mastermind
designers behind their own store brand.
The couple's high-end homemade brand
mingles with established imports like Marc
Jacobs, Vivienne Westwood, and Bernhard
Wilhelm. For their third straight year, we
give this fancy fashion shop our highest
honour!

Hanging out in cemeteries isn’t just for
goths anymore! On a tangent discussion
from another best of category, we sudden-
ly realised that, holy shit, we LOVE hang-
ing out in graveyards! Especially this one,
which is actually full of vitality: plants grow
abundantly from the graves creating one of
the few places in town with a full canopy.
It’s also crawling with neighbourhood cats,
who accost people for cuddles and sit on
headstones to lick their butts. Insert some-
platitude about life and death here!
BEST ICE CREAM:
VALDÍS
The concept of the restaurant is "casual fun
dining" and we prepare what we would call a
simple honest, "feel good", comfort food,
where we take on the classics with
a modern twist.
