October is a special month for cheese this year and has received the nickname of Ostóber. (Ostur in Icelandic means cheese). As part of Ostóber there will  be a cheese pop-up by Ostabúðin Skólavörðustígur at Hlemmur Mathöll involving lots of cheesy dishes and cheese tasting. 

Some of the options on offer are chocolate cheddar, Icelandic Óðalsostur cheese with honey and coffee, an aged Gouda and a new Gull Tindur cheese, matured for more than 12 months.
