It doesn't get more local than this. Head to this gourmet cheese shop and deli Monday to
Friday from 11.30am to 1.30pm (only those hours!) and you can sit in the back room for
the friendly owner's catch of the day, cooked up in either a large portion or a huge portion,
accompanied by their homemade bread.
You can also pick up other local goods, such as terrines and duck confit, on the way out.

Blink and you'll miss this tiny six-table cafe (a favourite of Björk's). It looks like a cross
between an eccentric bookshop and an art gallery, and dishes up delicious breakfasts of
toast, bagels, pancakes, or bacon and eggs served on thick, buttery slabs of freshly baked
bread.

walk for those who want to stick around while they sup. Hours are weather dependent.
