My wife likes hardboiled eggs more than I do, I think she would love to have some. Thanks!
Good to know, at least there are more affordable choices should we prefer not to cook or prepare anything.
Yes hot dog! We've bookmarked it already but your firsthand experience has made me more eager to try!
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.
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.
I've never eaten cold pasta or pizza slice but they sound cool. Thanks!
Great list of examples! Yes we'll try out the restaurants a few times I guess.
Caponata is new to me, and cheese would be great!
Thanks for the detailed reply! Great list of examples help us a lot.
Thanks for the reminder, I believe anything but meat or diary product is fine, but will check again.
Pasta salad is not common in Asia, but do seems like a good choice. Thanks!
We do want some taste of local cuisine, so ready-made meals in supermarket would be awesome.
Never heard of couscous! Will do some research on this, thanks!
Great suggestions! Beans and such would be great for dietery fibre.
I will bring some food like nuts and some will be brought in grocery storea/supermarkets there.
What do you mean by customs tomfoolery?
I love bread! Though my wife, not so much. We do plan to go to supermarket, thanks for suggestions!
Ah yes, how did I forget sandwiches when I type bread? And I love sandwiches too. Thanks!

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.
However, given we will travel by day tours, I don't think fire or microwave will be readily available during the tours. We can only prepare the meal the day before or in the morning and bring with us in the tours.
We've read that peanut butter/honey with bread, dried fruit and nuts are some good options. Overnight oatmeal may be great but I'm not sure we can keep them cool enough throughout the day and if not, whether this will cause food spoilage.
Are there any other recommendations to have more variety? Thank you!

For context, I live in Hong Kong where most people drink tap water after boiling first. Some may install water filter but may still boil the water. Very few drink bottle water unless they're outside and too lazy to bring their own bottles.
Now, I'm researching whether I can drink tap water in Iceland (I'm going there in August), and while it looks like the answer is affirmative, almost no web article mention whether I need to boil the water first. People in Japan (a country I've visited a few times) also seems to be used to drink tap water directly without boiling.
The further I searched, the more it seems to me that in developed countries (like US, Canada and the above examples), tap water is safe to drink directly. Is that true? Do you drink tap water without boiling?
It sounds like a stupid question but I just can't believe what I saw. I think I experienced a cultural shock.
Edit: wow, thanks so much for the responses and sorry if I didnt reply to each one of you but I'll upvote as much as as I can. Never thought so many would reply and Lemmy is a really great community.
2nd Edit: So in conclusion, people from everywhere basically just drink water straight out of tap. And to my surprise, I checked the Water Supplies Department website and notice it asserts that tap water in Hong Kong is potable, like many well-developed countries and regions.
However, as the majority of Hong Kong people are living in high-rise buildings, a small amount of residual chlorine is maintained in the water to keep it free from bacterial infection during its journey in the distribution system. Therefore it is recommended to boil the water so that chlorine dissipates.
So, in short, I actually do not need to boil the water unless I hate chlorine smell and taste. But I guess I'll just continue this old habit/tradition as there's no harm in doing so.
