A day that begins with local pastries and breads, and ends with dinner at a top restaurant, is a delicious day.

Breyðvirkið bakery specializes in selling handmade organic sourdough bread and pastries. It is open four days a week- at 7:30a.

On those days we arrive early and carry off delicious baked goods. Wednesday was no different.

Then it was off to do some local shopping. There was one shop in particular that I was interested in as it is filled with items made and crafted by local artisans.
It’s located on the waterfront.


I loved shopping here. As the young woman manager wrapped up my purchases, we had such a lovely chat. Then I walked out with a nice bagful of Faroese art!
We took an eye-popping, beautiful nature drive across lower Streymoy Island, to the sea.







During the 2023 visit to the Faroes, we learned about a wonderful local Italian restaurant. Reservations only. We scored a reservation and had one of the best meals ever!
Of course we returned.

Toscana is a small, cosy restaurant serving Italian cuisine.

Spagetti with bolognesa sauce.

Vanila icecream in orange juice.
The owner and chef recognized us as having been there before and dropped by for a short conversation. Fun!
It was a very delicious day indeed.

Delicious! I’m trying the vanilla ice cream in orange juice (or maybe just orange zest).
Cliff wants to know if you had the top down on those countryside drives.
I want that white stone wall in the artisan shop. You can bring it back for me, right?
enjoy!
