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.
It was only a matter of time until Vitabar
would take our 'BEST BURGER' prize.
After all, those guys have been serving up
their cheap, delicious, no-fuss burgers to
the praise of Reykjavík's most hardcore
burger lovers for decades without ever fal-
tering in their quality, raising their prices
beyond what´s appropriate for a burger or
becoming hopelessly hyped and crowded.
They are a constant; all good, all the time.

BEST BOOKSTORE:
MÁL OG MENNING
Best Of Reykjavík
Mál og Menning isn't just a place to buy
your next recreational read. It's a place to
buy your schoolbooks, literary tomes, get
a caffeine fix, pick up the Sunday Times,
grab a DVD for the weekend, get your kid
some crayons, and stock up on station-
ary to write home about it all. Even though
the four storeys of Mál og Menning have
more than you even thought you needed,
it is very well-organised and easily navi-
gable. The staff know their books and are
happy to help you out. They also do writers'
events and sometimes host concerts too.

This was hard to settle on because, obvi-
ously, there are a fuckload of rainy days
here and “on my couch watching movies!”
wasn’t a valid contender (although that is
one of our favourites). We had to agree that
if you had to be out of a rainy day, you’d
want to be dry, have lots to do and maybe
be able to get some refreshments, all under
one roof. Our winner is one of those places
that you basically want a minimum of three
hours in to take in the vast exhibits and
permanent collection by Erró. Meanwhile,
you can also sit and read about art in their
little library or go upstairs for a coffee and
light lunch. Bring on the rain!

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.
