Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 84: first time on ice

Explaining the good things, Lisko also plans to go on the road. Although the rooster is very busy, he still took time to take Lisko to the airport.

"Okay, let's go here." Lisko got out of the car and took out his luggage from behind.

The rooster leaned against the car door, watching Lisko smooth out the wrinkles in his clothes while riding in the car.

"You have to keep an eye on the house for me, and send me an email if you have anything." Lisko knew that he would handle everything about the ranch, but he was a little worried about building a house, so he still had to ask him.

"Do not worry."

The two people they were already familiar with didn't have those vulgar festivals. Lisko walked directly to the airport and waved his hand to indicate that the rooster could go back.

When I got on the plane, it was the familiar first-class cabin. Lisko wouldn't be stingy with himself in these respects.

Lisko took his seat and didn't have any desire to communicate with the people in the cabin.

Close your eyes and sleep for a while.

The destination this time is Reykjavik Airport in Iceland, Reykjavik is the capital of Iceland.

After an eight-hour flight, Lisko never fell asleep on the plane. Although he was sitting all the time, he was exhausted.

Lisko got off the plane. It was already night in Iceland. Lisko changed some Icelandic krona at the airport and waved a taxi with his luggage.

Iceland's main language is Icelandic. Due to its unique geographical location, and a steady stream of tourists from all over the world every year, English can also be communicated here.

The airport is about an hour's drive from the city. Lisko was already sleepy and fell asleep in the car. Fortunately, Lisko told the driver clearly the name of the hotel, so he could send it directly to the hotel, no need Toss, the day is finally over.

The hotel that Lisko booked this time was the hotel chain Reykjavik Consurat Hotel, which is owned by Hilton. Since Lisko is a senior member of this hotel, he showed his membership card at the front desk and was easily accepted. brought to the room.

When he walked past the front desk, Lisko also picked up a promotional poster of the hotel.

It says this hotel is about a 5-minute walk from Harpa Concert Hall and offers a health spa, free fitness center, restaurant and lobby bar.

Each room at the hotel has a balcony, a private bathroom, a seating area and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels.

A continental breakfast is served daily.

Lisko is still very satisfied with the environment, but the more urgent thing in his heart is to take a hot bath to get rid of his fatigue, and then order dinner and sleep comfortably.

Give a $10 tip to the hotel staff who helped with the luggage, and ask him to go to the front desk to ask for dinner.

Lisko took out his change of clothes and went into the bathroom.

There was a bathtub in the bathroom. Lisko was filled with bath water. When his skin touched the hot water, he groaned comfortably.

"No~"

The soaking in hot water quickly made him feel exhausted. After wiping his body, Lisko dried his hair and walked into the room.

Wearing a bathrobe, just as he was about to sit down and watch TV, the door rang.

"Sir?"

Lisko opened the door, and there was a dining car outside. The waiter helped push in and looked at Lisko with a smile.

When it was time to tip again, Lisko tried to avoid using the Icelandic currency he exchanged, so he had to give Zhang another dollar.

After the waiter left, Lisko was in the mood to eat.

The dinner delivered was very rich. When I was in Iceland, I couldn't help but try the world-famous Icelandic lamb.

Iceland's traditional cuisine is fish and lamb, smoked and dried fish are world-famous specialties. The reason why Icelandic mutton is famous in the world is that Iceland prohibits the use of chemical fertilizers and growth factors, and also strictly prohibits the import of meat. Therefore, all you eat in Iceland is pure Icelandic meat. Icelandic mutton is delicious and unparalleled. This is thanks to the traditional way of grazing for more than 1000 years, the sheep eat fresh grass and plants. When traveling to Iceland, you must try lamb.

Lisko first cut a piece with a knife and fork and put it in his mouth. The meat of the roast lamb was extremely tender and delicious.

Some people say that Iceland's sheep are the happiest sheep in the world. They don't know what captivity is all their lives, let alone see fences. They live extremely "unbounded" and drink glacier water when they are thirsty. Hungry eats plants and berries everywhere. In the Icelanders' own words "they pickle themselves".

Next to the roast lamb is salmon. Iceland is an island country with developed marine resources, especially fishing. Icelandic families eat fish every day. Fish is the mainstay of Icelandic cuisine. Icelandic seafood, headed by fish, is also a major economic pillar of Iceland. Cod, salmon and haddock are the most common, along with langoustine, a favorite of most local foodies.

In Iceland, the economy relies mainly on marine fisheries. Fishing provides 60% of Iceland's export earnings and employs 8% of the workforce.

So the most common food here is fish.

In other hotels, the salmon in front of Lisko is usually only served in four-star and above~www.readwn.com~, and it is only available in the morning, but Lisko is a senior member of Hilton, of course the hotel staff does not restrict it.

Iceland's salmon has made countless food lovers drool. Compared with salmon delicacies elsewhere, Iceland's can be said to be the purest". Iceland's salmon delicacies are tender and delicious, derived from pure natural fish rearing and fresh Generally, Iceland's fish ingredients are caught on the same day and are very fresh. Although salmon with high nutritional value is expensive, it is still favored by the vast majority of people.

The dessert is a unique Icelandic yogurt called Skyr. Not only is the name super nice, but the taste is also very special. When you bite into your mouth, it's like taking a bite of the glutinous soft sky! Skyr is more like something between yogurt and cheese, a very dense yogurt. It is mainly served with jam and nuts. Of course, some people eat it with olive oil. The taste is not greasy and amazing.

With so much food, of course, drinks are indispensable. People near the Atlantic Ocean are used to drinking gin, and what Lisko tasted today is a fruit gin.

Gin is also known as gin, and the main material is corn, so the liquor is golden yellow.

It is a spirit with an alcohol content of up to 40%. It is generally based on neutral alcohol, and then is further distilled with herbs, fruits, spices, etc. (usually juniper berries are the main raw materials) to extract the essence and aroma. It is gin It brings a unique aroma of rosin, leather and grass, which is very charming.

The name Lisko drinks is called Nordés, named after the coastline trade winds blowing toward the blue-black Atlantic Ocean. When Lisko saw the name, he thought of his old joke, "Drink the northwest wind."
