Reykjavik's famed hotdog stand

Talk of the town: Bæjarins Bestu was once voted the top hotdog stand in Europe by British newspaper 'The Guardian'.

Word to the wise: The hotdoggery has no fixed address (it's a cart) - head to the Old Harbour and ask a passerby for directions.

One of the city's most profitable businesses quantified by sales per square foot, this legendary hotdog shack is the ultimate pub-crawl refueling stop. Bæjarins Bestu has been serving Iceland's 'national food' since 1948, even earning a seal of approval from former US President Bill Clinton, who once hungrily chowed down a dawg here.

Order 'eina med öllu' (the works) - a weiner topped with ketchup, sweet mustard, fried onion and remoulade, a special sauce made with mayonnaise, sweet relish, and several secret ingredients.
