Iceland review - 2015, Page 97

Eat Meat & Fish
Brewing an Icelandic/Euro/Argentinian storm, the new Apotek Kitchen+Bar is proving a big hit
on the Reykjavík food scene. Apótek is the Icelandic word for ‘pharmacy’; the late-19th-century res-
taurant building was for decades the headquarters of the nation’s pharmacy and state pharmacist.
Apotek highlights fresh fish and local ingredients—fish of the day is a rewarding choice, likewise
the charcoal-grilled salmon with beech mushrooms and a smoky broth—while free-range lamb is
also available. If you’re feeling adventurous, go for the special six-course gourmet menu, including
one of Apotek’s very own pastry chef ’s inspired desserts. Don’t forget to have a drink at Apotek’s
lively bar, where award-winning ‘pharmacists’ mix exquisite cocktails to suit every mood. 551-0011.
