    Can you give us a bit more detail? Is it a walk in offer on everyday, any restrictions etc?

    Thanks

    well i went there on a thurs nite 2 weeks ago with a friend and she booked a table but the place was half empty (they are only new) and she saw their offer up in their window.
    basically you pick a soup out of 2 soups for first course, then there is a selection of starters (maybe 10 or 12) or a platter for 2 for the second course
    and then there is a selection of mains (again maybe 10 or 12 of them) and you get that with steamed rice (unless its a noodle dish which i got the first time) and if you want fried rice we were told its 2 eur extra or something.
    bottle of wine is grand too, first time i went we got a second one and it was an extra 17 eur for it!
    i was there last night and we just walked in got the offer no problem
    i suppose if you're planning on going and you're gonna book a table just mention it on the phone, but my friend said its on all the time.
    I ate there twice now and it was really tasty and generous portions

    I got a very similar deal recently at The Scent Garden in Firhouse, upstairs inside Scholars Pub. We're gone back a few times over the last few weeks and we've gotten two 4 course meals and a bottle of wine for under 50 Euro. Nice good and excellent value. What the scary thing is that even at these low prices, they are still not getting the business in, which is consistent with what the poster above said. 50 Euro for two four course meals and a bottle of wine, you'd expect business to be brisk at least I think...

    yes that is strange alright...i wouldnt hesitate going back again.
    Its just not advertised well....i wanted to check before going last nite if the offer was still on but its not mentioned on their site so we just walked in and ye it was on but i dont know how long its on for etc.

    On the back of this thread, I went in to Pad Thai@Shine last night with the missus. The food was fantastic I have to say, some of the best Thai food we've ever eaten (and we've been to Thailand!). The dishes were really generous - the soups are a decent meal in themselves! - and we just couldn't finish our mains. The only downside - it can be a little noisy from the bar downstairs.

    For 45 euros, this is a top deal. Will be back again soon. Thanks OP.

    I don't think the food is great in the scent garden- much prefer the chinese near the Speaker connolly (name escapes me)

    That's the China house.
    I thought the food in Scent Garden was good. What turns me off though is the gaffer tape they have stuck to the carpet in parts so they can save a few quid by not cutting out and replacing it. It looks tacky...
