5 things to do in Iceland
1. Do visit the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal pool. It costs about 5,000 kronur ($60) per person, inclusive of hotel pickups from Reykjavik and admission. Bathing in warm mineral-rich water and piling on silica clay all over your body in a lava-field setting is an unforgettable experience.
2. Do join the Golden Circle Tour to see the majestic Gullfoss waterfall, the Great Geysir (geyser) and the Iceland Thingvellir National Park. The bus tour starts from 8,000 kronur.
3. Do go on a Northern Lights Tour (about 5,000 kronur) to observe the aurora on a clear night between September and March. Or stay in wilderness lodges and resorts for a better chance of sightings.
4. Do stay up late to check out Reykjavik's vibrant and varied nightlife, even if it means having to battle jet lag or cold weather.
5. Do try modern or fusion Icelandic cooking, which is less intimidating than traditional fare such as fermented shark meat. An insider touted Fish Market (Adalstraeti 12) as Reykjavik's best restaurant. Its tasting menu for lunch, a steal at 3,900 kronur for four starters, two mains and one dessert, may include salad with smoked Icelandic goose and grilled Arctic char (a fish related to trout and salmon).
2 don'ts in Iceland
1. Don't schedule too much time for museums in Reykjavik as they are relatively small. Even the National Museum of Iceland can be easily browsed within a couple of hours, with time left to hop through the National Gallery and the Einar Jonsson Museum.
2. Don't try to buy Icelandic kronur in Singapore - most money changers don't seem to stock it. As you enter the arrival hall at Keflavik International Airport, head straight for the ATM to withdraw your needed kronur.

I created this dish using Lazy Gourmet’s Mushroom Alfredo Sauce to compliment my Gratin main course. This rich & creamy classic sauce contained generous portion of bit-sized button mushrooms, which was a great addition to the seafood ingredients. Water chestnuts were also used to add crunch to the Seafood Rolls. If possible, get the “ready-made” ones in vacuum-packed or cans if you dislike handling mud. I couldn’t find it in the supermarkets, hence the mess.
