Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur

food drink

The small, red-painted hut near the harbor stands apart from the surrounding glass and steel buildings. This is Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur, which translates to the town's best hot dogs. Since nineteen thirty-seven, the stand has served a specific recipe containing Icelandic lamb, pork, and beef. Bill Clinton famously ordered one with everything during a visit in two thousand four, and people still line up daily to replicate that order, consuming their meal standing on the pavement regardless of the weather.
