Best goddamn restaurant 2011
the best thai food
Nonnabiti
Hafnarstræti 9
Open until 2:00 on Thursday,
5:30 on Friday and Saturday
Here’s why you should consider not go-
ing to Subway: Nonnabiti makes actual
grilled subs right in front of your face
and they are bigger and tastier and the
service is nice. There are usually a lot
of super drunk jabronis in there ready
to have a laugh with you while you wait
for your food, all ridiculing how gross
you feel buying one of these, that it’s
really the low point. But it’s really not.
These are like the John Cougar Mellen-
camp of late night eats: big, meaty and
they hurt so good.
Mandi
Veltusund 3b
Open until 2:00 on Thursday,
6:00 on Friday and Saturday
Sometimes it’s not grease you need to
get through the night, it’s some spice
and some zest. Mandi’s kebabs are
plentiful and flavourful and generally
just a nice switch-up from the mostly
burger-pizza-sub grub. A good shish-
taouk wrap at three in the morning is
pretty incomparable, and vegans are
advised to hit this spot for their falafel
and fries.
Food trucks at Lækjartorg
Lækjartorg
Thursdays, Fridays and
Saturdays, catch as catch can!
If you’re walking through downtown
from, oh, say, Iðnó to Harpa, and sud-
denly you’re hit with the overwhelm-
ing waft of sweet fried dough but also
grilled meat, you’re approaching the
waffle wagon and burger truck that are
weekend staples of this fine city’s par-
tyscape. They are two separate entities
but really, without each other they are
nothing. Have yourself a sweet and a
meat on the cheap!
10-11
Austurstræti 17, Barónsstígur 4
Open everyday 24 hours
If all else fails, this highly overpriced
convenience mart will help you cure
hanger and drunk cravings. Some-
times all you really want is a Styrofoam
burger. Or at very least, you can pick up
some bananas, coffee and bread to help
you start out your next day.
