Description

The debut from rising star chef Gísli Matt of Slippurinn, the international destination restaurant in Iceland's Westman Islands.

Chef Gísli Matt built Slippurinn with his family in a historic shipyard building in a small town whose landscape was changed forever by the lava flow from a 1973 volcanic eruption. In this incredible environment, where plants grow on mountains created out of lava, Matt crafted a menu that honours the local and traditional while pushing the boundaries of contemporary cuisine.

His first book takes the reader right to the heart of Matt’s fascinating culinary world and island life.
