During travel, what can I prepare beforehand as meal, which can be eaten without access to fire or microwave?

I’m going from Hong Kong to Iceland next month. I’ve read that everything there, including food, are quite expensive. So my wife and I have been researching on how to prepare meal or snack that we can eat during the day instead of going to restaurant....

nigelinux,

Ah yes, how did I forget sandwiches when I type bread? And I love sandwiches too. Thanks!

nigelinux,

I love bread! Though my wife, not so much. We do plan to go to supermarket, thanks for suggestions!

nigelinux,

I will bring some food like nuts and some will be brought in grocery storea/supermarkets there.

What do you mean by customs tomfoolery?

nigelinux,

Great suggestions! Beans and such would be great for dietery fibre.

nigelinux,

Never heard of couscous! Will do some research on this, thanks!

nigelinux,

We do want some taste of local cuisine, so ready-made meals in supermarket would be awesome.

nigelinux,

Pasta salad is not common in Asia, but do seems like a good choice. Thanks!

nigelinux,

Thanks for the reminder, I believe anything but meat or diary product is fine, but will check again.

nigelinux,

Thanks for the detailed reply! Great list of examples help us a lot.

nigelinux,

Caponata is new to me, and cheese would be great!

nigelinux,

Great list of examples! Yes we’ll try out the restaurants a few times I guess.

nigelinux,

I’ve never eaten cold pasta or pizza slice but they sound cool. Thanks!

nigelinux,

I understand it may sound strange. But given we’ve spent a lot on tickets, tours and accommodations, we’d like to spend less on food, which is the least important thing to us. My wife sometimes even jokes if there’s a pill that can provide all nutrition a person need, she would take that every day and forgo the ability/choice to eat any other thing.

nigelinux,

We do plan to cook at the hotel we’ve booked, but not sure what type of food are more suitable to be brought as lunch without microwave. In HK, we often cook rice and such and use microwave to reheat for lunch.

nigelinux,

Yes hot dog! We’ve bookmarked it already but your firsthand experience has made me more eager to try!

nigelinux,

Good to know, at least there are more affordable choices should we prefer not to cook or prepare anything.
