Reykjavík: the lamb soup, the fish of the day, and the Sunday brunch

Kjötsúpa, the lamb and root-vegetable soup, is the dish to order on a cold day; fresh fish (cod, Arctic char) is the reliable choice in any restaurant, and the "fish of the day" at the small places near the harbor is usually the best value. Skyr is the yogurt-like breakfast. The fermented shark is a dare, not a meal. Reykjavík's bakeries open early with cinnamon rolls; the happy hours posted on the Appy Hour app make the beer bearable. Sunday brunch is a city tradition.
