Hot Cuisine in Iceland

Iceland, the land of fire and ice, has a new tourist attraction: a massive new lava eruption spewing from the long-dormant Fimmvörðuháls volcano, on the Eyjafjallajokull glacier in southern Iceland.

And entertainingly enough, a group of Icelandic chefs are even offering a once in a lifetime gastronomical treat: a gourmet meal fully cooked on the lava itself! The menu includes lobster soup, followed by flaming lobster and monkfish with lava-cooked shallot onions, and champagne. All this—including the helicopter ride to the site—will set you back 60,000, krónur, or $470 dollars.
