If you ever find yourself driving in Iceland, you will find that you will have to make many impromptu road stops just to take in the landscape and take in a few photos.<\/p>\n

Try as you might, no one can resist doing this and it is this very act that led the 4 of us to arrive quite late at our next destination after our horse riding adventure at Hestheimar<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

The final stop of the evening, of course, was a hotel and none other than the Frost and Fire hotel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

The Frost and Fire hotel<\/a> are one of those hotels set in the midst of beautiful natural landscapes and one that uses this to its full advantage.<\/p>\n

There’s an outdoor heated pool, several hot tubs next to the river and meals made using the natural lava heat!<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

As soon as we arrived, we had one thing on our minds – food and so we rather quickly chucked out stuff into the rooms and went to the restaurant at the hotel.<\/p>\n

The food here was amazing! We were all raving about it as we ate. I’m sure we were the loudest table with our moans of “Mmmmm…”<\/em>, “Delicious!”<\/em> and “Saaaa-Gu”<\/em> (which is what “So Good!” sounds like with a mouth full of cake)<\/p>\n

This meal was yet another example of how Icelandic food had been brilliant so far and we tucked into every course available… with copious amounts of wine of course and I think I can say that we deserved it after learning to ride horses<\/a> earlier in the day!<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

We kicked off with this salmon starter specially prepared by the chef… This really got us going!
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

It was of course accompanied with freshly baked bread which we proceeded to ladle with lashing of Icelandic butter… (that butter is so good!)
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, we tucked into the hot smoked goose with brie and raspberries…
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

…along with creamed soup of langoustine, Varm\u00e1 special
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Followed by Bacalao with butternut squash, olives and tomato- and herb butter sauce for Lloyd and Georgia…
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

…and Lamb chops and a shank of lamb cooked in the hot spring, mini-potatoes and Iceland moss infused sauce for Chris and me.
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Lloyd, Georgia and I then opted for the carrot cake cooked in the hot spring served with Iceland moss ice cream…
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

…and Chris went for the chocolate-dream, vanilla ice cream and creamed mascarpone.
\n\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Once dinner was over, we ‘retired’ to the hot tubs, wine-a-plenty and took in the scenery while relaxing our muscles and re-calling what we’d been doing in Iceland so far.<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Officially, I feel inclined to also point out that we did some planning for the next day’s activities but we did more wine-drinking at this stage than any planning.<\/p>\n

We only planned on staying in the hot tubs for a little while but before we knew it, it was 1.30 am.<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

Those hot tubs will do that to ya! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The next day, we hurriedly grabbed breakfast as soon as we woke up and went back to our rooms to pack for the next stop on our trip.<\/p>\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/p>\n

One or all of us may have fallen asleep after having a humongous breakfast with freshly made waffles, fruits, cereal, fresh breads, meats and cheeses.<\/p>\n

Basically, if it was on offer for breakfast, it was getting eaten by us!<\/p>\n

Naps over, we finally said farewell to the Frost and Fire hotel though only briefly as we would be back in a couple of nights after seeing some amazing sights in Iceland (and yes, there were some Northern Lights sightings but more on that in another post).<\/p>\n
