Why is Dublin such a shιtty city?

There's quite a lot of ethnic eateries in Dublin. Compared to say Italy where you'd be hard pressed to find very many non Italian restaurants bar McDonald's/Burger King and the odd kebab place.

''The chef there will whip you up any regional Chinese cuisine you want,"

That is not possible. Ingredients, expertise etc, some dishes aren't so easy to make, Chinese cuisine is very diverse and can be quite specialised. But I know they can do better dishes ,yes, if you ask .

Anyway why do you need to ask for the secret meal lol. I have a friend that gets half price at all the resturants, not sure if it's because she is ethnic Chinese and they all get that deal or just good at making friends.

The criticism of O’Connell St. here is specific - a breakdown in law and order has occurred in the very centre of our capital. The ‘data’ has been presented and can be experienced in person any day you like. How anybody could defend the status quo is beyond me.

I’d be more stunned by the countryside if I had the same rights to roam in it enjoyed by many other Northern Europeans. Even the Brits are way ahead of us on that.

Did you try the restaurants I told you to try yet? Or have you been to busy crying over your keyboard?

As I said you can't just whip up some dishes by asking. They need to prepare them in advance and some take a lot of effort and specialisation. There is no such thing as an 'everything Chinese restaurant ' in Asia.

For instance xiao long BAO dumplings.

Or Steamed ginger and black bean grouper .

Or Beijing kao ya.

Or Taiwanese beef noodles

Or Hong Kong Dim Sum

It doesn't work like that. Same as a French restaurant probably couldn't whip you up a decent pizza. This seems to be confusing to some of you.

I also noticed unfortunately there are very few Japanese in Ireland which probably accounts for the lack of authentic Japanese restaurants (some are run by Chinese).

PS Aobaba looks like the real deal, thx

Yeah I have never been to Aobaba. Big swing in me noodles.

And there's only a couple of streets in the capital city with semi decent Asian food. Otherwise it's a desert out there in the big city. Especially as many of us don't go into the city centre often cos it's...**** ..in parts.

I haven't eaten shite greasy Chinese food in Dublin in over 20 years, you need to sort out your confusion mate. I don't know who you are talking about.

Aobaoba looks like a bog standard Vietnamese restaurant to me. Which is equal to amazing in some folks shoes I guess.

Let's face it most of Dublin has little in the way of decent ethnic eateries, a bit in the city centre but sure a lot of us couldn't be arsed going into it very often cos of the well known issues. Dragging my family in and out of the North inner city for a meal isn't that enjoyable especially at night there. Parnell street and O Connell street being amongst the shittiest of all and an area I know very well indeed.
