We were downtown Reykjacvík yesterday and the Elders wanted to have pylsur for lunch and of course why not at the famous pylsur stand (made famous by Bill Clinton). This is an outdoor stand with stand up tables which you will note are covered with ice. A pylsur is a lamb hot dog sitting on a bed of first minced fresh onions then minced fried onions. Then they squeeze two sauces on top of the dog - one is like a flavored mayo and the other a type of mustard - we refer to both as pylsur sauce. They are good and so far every time we have stopped to have one it has been very cold and still there is always a waiting line. Might be the lines are due to the price - approximately $2.50 which is very reasonable for a good hot dog. They were 50 krónur higher in October so we think this is the winter price. The wind was blowing so hard and it was below freezing as testified by the ice on the table - it is just all in the experience.
