Iceland’s Food and Fun Festival was launched this week offering Icelanders an opportunity to experience the culinary art of chefs from around the world who converge in Reykjavik for one week. As in previous years, chefs from the United States made up a strong contingent, bringing a broad range of styles and creations to Iceland.
As one of my fellow countrymen mentioned at the opening ceremony, the beauty of the Festival is that participating chefs take from Iceland as much they bring with them: new recipes, ingredients, fellowship, and an everlasting connection between Iceland and the United States.
