Pre-arranged, practical ingredients for travellers staying in an apartment, cottage or accommodation with a kitchen.

Travel-friendly Indian grocery pack with spices, rice and lentils for visitors to Iceland

Why a pre-arranged pack can help

Visitors often need only enough spices, rice or lentils for a few meals. Large packets can be expensive, difficult to carry and wasteful at the end of a short trip. A compact pre-order pack can make cooking easier without promising a full supermarket range.

3-day starter pack

A few measured spices and pantry basics for one or two simple meals.

Family cooking pack

Quantities planned around your group size and the dishes you expect to cook.

Recipe-specific pack

Ingredients prepared for a selected dal, curry, pakoda or chickpea dish when available.

How to request a tourist grocery pack

Tell us your dates. Share the pickup day and how long you will stay in Iceland.
Tell us your group size. Include adults, children and any dietary requirements.
Choose your meals. Send dish names or a simple plan such as dal-rice, chana masala or breakfast snacks.
Approve the quote. We confirm available items, quantities, substitutions, total price and pickup time before preparation.

Items that may be included

  • Measured cumin, coriander, turmeric, chilli and garam masala
  • A suitable quantity of basmati rice, lentils, dal or chickpeas
  • Selected flour, chutney, snack or recipe-kit ingredients
  • Simple cooking notes for a selected dish

Every pack is different. Availability, brand, quantity and packing method must be confirmed before payment or pickup.

Plan around your accommodation

Before ordering, check that your accommodation allows cooking and has the equipment your recipe needs. A basic apartment may have a hob and saucepan but no pressure cooker, blender, oven tray or deep-frying setup. Choose simpler dishes when equipment is limited.

For prepared meals instead of groceries, use Indian Food Box online ordering. For ideas using measured ingredients, explore our Indian recipe kits.

Important before travelling to pickup

Indian Food Shop is a specialist pre-order sourcing service, not a general walk-in grocery store. Message at least 24 hours ahead when possible. Wait for confirmation of stock, price and pickup time at Langirimi 21, Reykjavík.
