The debut from rising star chef Gísli Matt of Slippurinn, the international destination restaurant in Iceland's Westman IslandsChef Gísli Matt built Slippurinn with his family in a historic shipyard building of a small town whose landscape was changed forever by the lava flow from a 1973 erupted volcano. In this most incredible environment, where plants grow on mountains created out of lava, Matt created a menu that both respects the local and traditional and pushes boundaries of contemporary cuisine. His first book takes the reader right to the heart of Matt's fascinating culinary world and island life.
