KKK Apótek, Austurstræti 16, T 575 7900. Café-bar open from 1100, restaurant for dinner from 1800. Fashionable new restaurant serving fusion cuisine. Apótek used to be a pharmacy, hence the name, but now dispenses tongue-twisting goodies like Tahitian tuna tartar with wonton soup and a range of sushi instead of pills and potions. It’s certainly the place to see and be seen, and is good for coffee and their extra special brownie with orange sorbet during the day. The separate bar-café menu is good value and equally delicious.

KKK Argentina, Barónsstígur 11a, T 551 9555, http://www.argentina.is Daily from 1800. If you’re looking for meat in this city, this is the place to visit. Argentina is a darkly seductive basement restaurant serving exceptional mouth-watering steaks of all description, specializing in beef. It’s the winner of numerous accolades and is recommended.

KKK Brasserie Borg, Pósthússtræti 11, T 551 1247 Open for snacks all day, dinner 1800-2100. As you’d expect, it’s a dining experience at this art-deco hotel with a small menu featuring rainbow trout, lamb, lobster and reindeer, served in an environment that’ll make you feel like a 1950s film star. If you can’t afford the food, just go for a cocktail in the bar, Skuggabarinn.
