I wouldn't be into the desserts either.

And I'm not going to pay €3.5 for a vithit.

But, dumplings...

I loved the dim sum in YMY.
But a bit pricey.

I hadn't looked at their desserts.
Yeah, not a single temptation there.

We stopped going to ymy a couple of years ago - it just seemed to disimorove anytime we went.
Much bigger selection of dumplings, though.

Anyway, will try it and must give the pierogi place a go, too - although some pierogi can be a bit heavy and stodgy, I find.

Absolutely the same feelings TBR.

YMY seem to have gone down hill. Different menu depending on the day, but still €€€.

I haven't had any takeaway food during the pandemic though.

I dunno. Seems odd. If I can't sit down in a place, I'll just make my own dinner, thank you.

Pretty much the same. We've had Iyer's a couple of times as it's very close to us, we love the food and wish to support but if they ever offer seating again the takeaways will end for us.

I grab a Jianbing on occasion but that's eaten on the street.

Like you, I just don't get takeaway at home and I hate all the packaging.

Oh, I lie. We've had fish and chips at home from sea salt.

Oh, how was Sea Salt?

Similar quality to the Fishwife?

I love Iyers too, used to go there most Saturdays.
I just wish he shaked up the menu a bit. It's a little samey (are you listening Gautham?)

Sea Salt was very good. Every bit as good as Fish wife. The portion of fish we got was ridiculously huge but very good. Will definitely go again.

I really miss sitting in in Iyer's and the old menu, too. Some of the limitations seem odd, now.
For example, you can get samosa chat but not just samosas. Last week chili cassava was available as part of a meal deal, but not on its own. I know they are trying to simplify the work flow but some of it doesn't seem to make sense, to me.

Anyway, I'm glad they are open again, will try earlier tomorrow as I failed to get food from them last weekend!

Hopefully Ernest heeds the message from the Taoiseach that people should forget about takeaway pints .......... having the Peace Park like a Beer Garden was a joke.

Sorry all the above do takeaway food. Nobody is bothering their h*le with takeaway drinks and hanging around, have u noticed the weather lately.

Eh the weather was similar a couple of months ago and fookloads were bothering with takeaway drinks kid.

No it f*cking wasn’t, I don’t remember any ice warnings in November. Grow up.

Oh my, such aggression. Apologies if my comment upset you.

Ya I do like getting takeaway drink but I drink it at home, u know that is an option. I’m not freezing my ass of right now on the street drinking them.

OK, I might get in trouble here for back seat moderating but I really don't care.
This is a valuable thread and it will get closed if people don't stop bickering and being disrespectful.

So, can posters, please stop referring to other posters with terms like "lad", and "kid". It's really passive aggressive, rude and disrespectful.

Why the need for adding any address at the end of your posts? Is it just to poke and annoy?

There's a few posters at it all the time.
Please stop.

Also things like, "cop on", "grow up" etc.
No one here has any right to tell any other poster what to do. Attack the post not the poster!

It is indeed, got a takeaway for lunch there today. Menu is reduced somewhat but still plenty choice. Quite nice to sit on the benches on the quay in the sunshine with a very noticeable lack of traffic. If only the drone wasn't flying around all the time we were there
