SALT Lounge Bar and Restaurant Cuisine
trends tend to come and go in Reykjavík, but if
one thing is certain it’s that SALT Lounge Bar
& Restaurant, located in the swanky lobby of
the Radisson SAS 1919 Hotel, continues to be
one step ahead of the curve in  ne dining. The
SALT kitchen team has managed to  awlessly
combine the freshest Icelandic ingredients with
a  air for creativity, resulting in mouthwatering
classics like Icelandic langoustine and lamb  llet
with asparagus and licorice root. To keep the
menu lively and fresh, the chef chooses a new
theme each month that corresponds to the ap-
propriate season. September is devoted to fresh-
ly-o -the-boat Icelandic seafood like langoustine
and scallops and October is all about beer. Yes,
beer. As presentation is of equal importance as
the cuisine itself, the only downside is that you
may just  nd your food too beautiful to eat. 599

farms and  shermen. The man himself stands
at the forefront of Iceland’s foodie revolution,
making good on the country’s abundance of
seafood, lamb and produce. You’ll inevitably
 nd bacalao (salted cod) in some variety on
the menu, as well as Iceland’s celebrated
