I’m usually suspicious when my two loves of food and tech collide. It’s probably because we don’t have a fantastic track record in Ireland, where hosts still rely on a scribbled book for reservations and restaurants regularly suffer from “no shows” because they take bookings over the phone and rely on goodwill. Whatever about the […]

It’s been widely reported in the last month that by 2030, 47% of Irish people will be obese. I decided to look at the role restaurants have in shaping our weight, and what they can do to help. During the glorious boom years we really started to learn all about the finer things in life […]

We don’t need to tell you that Dillingers is amazing. We don’t need to tell you it does probably the best brunch in Ranelagh; that the atmosphere is tight, buzzing and constantly brilliant; that the staff have got personality; or about the famous nachos. We do, however, need to tell you about the new additions […]

Ahh, brunch. The notion-filled, made-up, filler meal to which we have all become accustomed. Not all of the usual hotspots will be open tomorrow, but some troopers are keeping their doors ajar for the first few weak and weary of 2016. 1. Whitefriar Grill, Aungier Street Whitefriar Grill has long been a contender for best […]

I get to eat out a lot for my job – more than 300 times a year in Dublin. And while we’ve been sharing the best reviews, I thought I’d pick out the five stand-out dishes I’ve eaten this year so as you can try them too. Each meal we all eat is personal and […]

Let’s be honest, brunch is by far the greatest meal that’s ever been invented. The best parts of breakfast mixed with epic lunch treats you don’t normally get to eat, always at reasonable prices and washed down with fresh juices, coffee and sometimes alcohol. Throw in the social element and the fact that it’s served […]

It’s been a part of the village for as long as any of us can remember – but the Spar in Ranelagh, on the corner with Chelmsford Road opposite Dillingers, is no more. It closed earlier this week after 25 years of service, according to a notice posted in the window, after its lease came to an […]

Whenever a new restaurant opens there’s always a stampede of critics beating down the doors to get in and tell the world about it first. People love hearing about the latest hot spot, but that’s often unfair on the fledging restaurant trying to find their feet. So when it came to reviewing Luna I wanted to give it […]

I grew up eating Mexican food. My family and I would frequent the same Mexican restaurant at least two nights every week, and I’ve gotta say it never got old. The ultimate Mexican treat, for me, has to be nachos, with all that salsa, melted cheese, creamy guac, spicy jalapeños, chives, and lots of beans. They’re beautiful – and the best part is, they can be shared […]

I eat out about 300 times a year, between lunch and dinner, and for the most part the meals are okay – decent at best. Once a year, however, there is a dining experience that makes me pinch myself. And yesterday in Richmond I had that very experience. Like most people, when I think of brunch I think […]
