LODO— The last four days of this month will bring to Coohils a series of Iceland-inspired dinners in a unique collaboration between Coohills owner/chef Tom Coohill and Iceland's own Hakon Mar Orvarsson. The costs of the dinner will be $65 per person, with an option to add an extra course and wine pairings for $95.
