Opening a restaurant under any circumstances is no easy feat, but doing so in the midst of a global pandemic? Well, that's something few can say they've managed to accomplish.
Run by the same guys behind S.T.R.A.N.D, a luxury interiors store, Strand Fare is a brand new deli in Sandymount.

Taking to Instagram, the team shared a number of photos of the new spot also writing:
"Wasn’t an easy road & that was before the pandemic hit. But! We are beyond proud of our new baby!"
You had me at pastries.

Due to the power fault, there is no tram service operating on the red line between Smithfield and Connolly / The Point and on the […]
