Restaurants across the country offer a wide variety of dishes from both foreign and Icelandic cuisine, inspired by natural ingredients. Most traditional Icelandic dishes consist of fish, dairy products, bread, potatoes, and lamb. But modern chefs have become more inventive by adding new ingredients based on old recipes.
Since two million people come to the country every year, the national cuisine has changed over the past decades, more inclined towards pizza, pasta, and hamburgers. However, the key elements of Icelandic cuisine have changed little since settling the country over a thousand years ago.
