An interview with our head chef
Hinrik Karlsson is the head chef at Hvammsvik. He carefully curated a menu full of delicious dishes created with local ingredients. Come eat and drink with us!
When did you start working at Hvammsvik
I have been working here for 9 years with the owner way before this [Hvammsvik] all started. We have had this idea for a long time and it has finally all come together.
What inspired the dishes served at Stormur Bistro?
I would say the environment that we have here is what inspired me the most.We try to use the ingredients that we have around us. When the mushroom season starts we use that, now we’re using some of the berries from the local hills and of course the seaweed that we use in our shots.
What inspired the sea food soup?
The soup has been a long process of trial and error, so we have been testing it for a long time now. I came across the ingredients when I was traveling abroad. The base of it is a curry and that combined with the fresh, local, Icelandic seafood is what makes it special.

Reviews
If I had to eat one sandwich for the rest of my life, it would probably be from Stormur Bistro and Bar.
The hot laksa soup over our bowl of fresh seafood was a particular highlight.
Chef Ellertsson has created a small but perfect menu of local ingredient-led soups, open sandwiches and salads to complement the soothing experience of the hot springs.
