Five Guys

As my husband and I wandered over to our local T-Mobile store to upgrade my iPhone (into which I could no longer talk and be heard - a problem with a cell phone), we discovered that the T-Mobile store wouldn't open until noon. We had planned on grabbing lunch after our purchase, but we were nothing if not flexible (and, more importantly, hungry), so we had lunch first, stopping at Five Guys.

We shared more fries than you can shake a stick at. 

I got a bacon cheeseburger with raw onions, pickles, mushrooms,
mustard, and mayo. It was delicious.

Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur

Today is our last day in Reykjavik - we're flying home tomorrow - and being that it's a holiday at home, we thought we'd commemorate both our stay in Iceland and the American Independence holiday by going to Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur, the famous Icelandic hot dog stand, for lunch. 

We both got two hot dogs with the works, which includes ketchup, sweet mustard, fried onion, raw onion, and remolaði, a mayonnaise-based sauce with sweet relish.

The hot dog itself was very good, although the sweet mustard and sweet relish rendered it a bit too sweet for my tastes (I tend not to like sweet and savory together). Altogether it didn't blow me away, as it seemed to for others. Next time I'd probably just try it without the sweet mustard and remolaði.
