Guardian food journalist Kate Magic has named the Icelandic Gló restaurant her favourite raw food restaurant in Europe. "You might imagine Reykjavik to be behind the trend, being so isolated, but you’d be wrong," write Magic.
The Gló restaurants are in four places in Reykjavík and owner and chef Solla has gained quite an international reputation, cooking for stars such as Ben Stiller and Sean Penn.
"Glo serves (cooked) chicken, and vegetarian dishes such as lasagne, as well as raw options including pizza and falafel, but whatever you have comes with a lot of salad. There are green juices and turmeric drinks, and raw desserts such as chocolate torte. And the cinnamon rolls are as rich and sweet as anyone could wish for, whatever your dietary predilection," states the article.
