1. Nordic Seafood Platter



The best catches from Iceland's immaculate seas are reflected in the Blue Lagoon's trademark seafood buffet. This well chosen assortment includes exquisite smoked salmon, fresh langoustines, and locally grown Arctic char. Using traditional Nordic smoking methods, the Arctic char is made to have a delicate taste that precisely counteracts the fish's inherent sweetness with subdued smokey overtones. Emphasizing their naturally sweet and delicate flavor, the langoustines are gently poached and presented with clarified butter flavored with local herbs. Using a centuries-old technique including indigenous birch and juniper berries for a distinctive taste only available in Iceland, the smoked salmon is cured. Along with house-made condiments including dill sauce, pickled veggies, and traditional rye bread, each element of the dish is decorated with foraged herbs.
