I’ve a list of places the length of O’Connell Street of where I want to eat. Forest Avenue has been on that list for quite some time now. It was highly recommended to me by Barry of 147 Deli. I went there for my birthday lunch and I’m sorry I […]
Eating Out
147 Deli Breakfast
If you’ve never been to 147 Deli on Parnell St. you’ve been missing out. They do some of the best sandwiches in Dublin. They do specials every week and some of them are so unbelievably tasty that I’ve gone back the next day to get another. When they announced they’d […]
Fade Street Social Tapas Gastro Bar Review
This post has been a long time coming. Anytime anyone asks me for a recommendation for food one of my first questions is “Have you been to Fade St. Social yet?”. If they haven’t been, I tell them to go. I don’t think I can put into words how much […]
What I ate in NYC
A few people have asked me what I ate in NYC. I’ve talked about Eleven Madison Park in another post. This post is just about all the other food I ate while in New York. I’ve been to New York about 10-12 times. It’s a family tradition of ours to […]
The White Moose Cafe
I don’t think there’s a dog on the street who hasn’t heard about The White Moose Cafe. The owner, Paul Stenson, has had social media buzzing with his war on vegans, breastfeeding mothers and the gluten intolerant. Even news channels across the Atlantic have been talking about him. He’s the guy […]
Hang Dai Chinese
There’s a lot of hype lately about Camden’s street latest edition, Hang Dai Chinese. It’s a collaboration between chef Karl Whelan and Will Dempsey. Hang Dai serves Chinese dishes in a unique setting as it’s designed to look like a subway carriage which gives it a bit an edge. It’s dark lighting […]
Eleven Madison Park
If you follow me on Twitter you’ll know I went to Eleven Madison Park when I was in New York last week. I started planning where I’d go for my “fancy” meal during the summer and I had my heart set on EMP. It wasn’t easy to get a table. The tables for November/December […]
Fennel Restaurant
Following on from his late father’s success, chef Peter Clifford, author of Clifford & Sons (which is on my Christmas wish list) latest venture is Fennel in Drumcondra which opened earlier in the year. It’s located just off the Swords Road next to The Regency Hotel. Given the huge amount of […]
Banyi Japanese
Banyi Japanese is located on Bedford Row in Temple bar. Honestly, I tend not to go to restaurants in Temple Bar that often because I see them as overpriced and a bit gimmicky. However, Banyi Japanese doesn’t fall into either of those categories. I’ve had sushi delivered from Banyi Japanese a handful […]
Superfoods Takeaway
Where can you get decent paleo food on the north side of Dublin (or any part of Dublin) on a budget? Up until recently I would have said a place like this doesn’t exist. But I was wrong. Superfoods Takeaway has paleo, vegetarian and vegan dishes all for less than […]
