We were passing there last night and saying we will definitely go there soon, I've never been and my friends haven't been in ages, is it very pricey ?
Starters are around 10e and mains 28/29
not a restaurant as such but we are adoring the pies from The Pie Guys in The English Market... top notch stuff.. the pickled veg and slaw sides are delicious also - pies are unreal
Actually ended up going to Joes + Bros. It's my go to place for my toasted sandwiches. Wasn't sure if they were doing a Christmas special so I checked when I was passing. They are doing the regular turkey, ham, stuffing, cranberry and also a spiced beef one. Got the turkey one. It was good in fairness- I got it on sourdough instead of ciabatta. €12.90 with the side. Thinking I'll try Grumpy Baker next.
Sort of related, but I had a Christmas quesadilla in the Black Market recently (The Burrito spot) and it was absolutely delicious.
Craving another one now!
Do they serve them hot, or can you reheat them at home? There aren't much seating options around the EM.
They are in the black market too.. Near Pairc ui Chiomh.
in the EM - served hot - but you can buy them frozen - to take home
but yes also in black market too - served hot with seating
Chicken tacos from Hana Korean BBQ in the Marina Market. Very tasty and plentiful.
€12.50
Anybody knows what's up with The Sultan down at Penrose Wharf? We passed it last night at around 9.50 pm and it was all dark and looked closed (supposed to be open till 11.30).
Has anyone tried Khyber Grill on Pope's Quay yet? The 2 reviews on Google Maps were positive.
I might take a visit soon, and will report back if I do.
P.S.: Does anyone know the meaning of the term Iqraa's? I assume it's not related to Iqraa's on Washington Street (I'm not a fan)! It must be a more general term?
"Fresh Food, Safe Food" 👌
I suspect Iqraa is the chef.
It is a name and a slot means "to read" as it was the first word said by Allah in the Koran.
Tried here last week. Really not great. Nothing tasted fresh or made in-house and it seemed rather expensive for what it was, campared to other Asian restaurants in town. For instance, the new Japanese, Reiwa, is cheaper and better tasting.
Tung Sing opening a stall in the Marina Market
^^ Christ... 🤢
It was missing a nice Chinese but I don't think Tung sing is that.
Tried Sano Pizza for lunch yesterday (Parnell Place) and was very impressed. Tasty pizzas done well and speedy service. Nicely designed space with friendly staff, and as others said, very well priced!
Love the place, my kids do too. Constantly dropping in for a few of the bake at home pizzas too.
oh wow are the bake at home good?
Ya really good, different taste to the restaurant cooked but for €5 you couldn't get a half decent frozen pizza for that.
Just saw on Twitter that Pigalle have announced they are closing! I know there were a few fans on here.
And I never got to try there... 😫
I am distraught! I was only there last Thursday…again!
god I wonder why, it was always so busy. Such a shame. Wish everyone well…all the staff were fab in there.
I just saw this news about Pigalle. Was only in there just before Christmas and it was excellent as always. Really liked that place. And they always seemed busy. I guess it's really difficult to make a restaurant viable these days. I really hope this isn't the first of many
Shame about Pigalle, is this a decision to close rather than forced? Given it always seemed busy they could have increased prices rather than shut? I'm always happy to pay when it's good and I'd always found Pigalle good!
Sad to hear about Pigalle but the last time I was there in September, I wasn't impressed. I was quite disappointed actually because the time before I really enjoyed it. The portions were really tiny and it was after getting very expensive. My friend had fish and the portion was miniscule, it was ridiculous. She should have said something but she didn't. I had a different fish dish and it was just ok, quite bland. I was just disappointed because my friends hadn't been there before and I was raving about it to them.
Post reported ;)
Tung sing is closing as well tomorrow.
Which one?
