Osushi is a unique rest aurant in Iceland. The met hod of dining involves snatching small plates from a conveyor belt. Pricing is distinguished by the color and pattern of the plate – most range between 230 - 440 ISK. Everything off the con vey or belt is tasty and if you don´t really fancy sushi, you can instead choose for ex ample teriyaki chicken, noodle salad, tempura and desserts. The vibe in Osushi is friendly and relaxed. The restaurant is located almost next door to Althingi (the parliament) which is in the heart of the city. osushi.is Pósthússtræti 13 / Borgartúni 29 / Reykjavíkurvegur 60 HF. Tel: 561 0562 / www.osushi.is Húrra Tryggvagata 22 (C3) | 22:00 | ISK 500 Attention, techno lovers: this is the gig for you. Electronic artist Krakkkbot is releasing his new record ‘Amateur of the Year - Crammed with Cock’ and has invited his friends DJ Flugvél og geimskip and Pyrodulia to fill Reykjavík’s new club Húrra with some sick beats. The star of the show, Krakkkbot, will dish out his brand of electronic doom and the mighty DJ Flugvél & geimskip will transform the stage into a space capsule, flying through the ether to the sound of her funky tunes. Also, happy hour lasts until midnight. YN Rave and Rumble Krakkkbot Album Release Party 30 May Harpa Austurbakki 2 (C5) | 20:00 | ISK 4,500 The concert is made up of four themes: Luminance, Serenity, Existence and Remembrance. These are then tied together through connecting materials, harmonies and sounds into one ethereal soundscape. Parts of the piece are constructed around each performer, who in turn is transformed into a “soloist” for one segment, performing with a chamber ensemble. The music is then complemented with a diverse lighting installation, enhancing the atmospheric experience and further separating the themes. This delicately-arranged show begs to be attentively experienced and enjoyed, unlike so many other gigs in Reykjavík in which showing up trashed is par for the course.
