Restaurant Recommendation Thread - Anyone for seconds?

..

Agreed. Food in Copper Grove is outstanding.

Definitely worth a visit. Always busy too which says a lot.

Will be in Careys lane.

Go back a page on the opening/closing business thread and there's an article about it there

yeah - its like Indian fine dining, same team as behind Ritu in Carrigaline

Anyone been to Brennan's wine bar recently ? Thinking of it's a good option tomorrow, Saturday evening

Went to the little cafe at the entrance to the Chinese supermarket down Dalton's Avenue, Cornmarket Street.

Lots of various pan Asian snacks and good coffee. Very tasty and reasonable.

We were down in cork for a few days with two very young kids so with a buggy in tow we were kinda limited as to where we dined. Won’t go through all the stops but in Cobh we went for lunch in Ellen’s Kitchen, basic enough food , I had eggs Benny and herself has chorizo and chickpea hash. Food was lovely and decent quantity.

We were staying in Rochestown Park so we ate there the first night. Less said about the food the better. Massive portions but plain and flavourless. Neither of us finished ours which is rare. I had seafood tagliatelle and Mrs B had red Thai curry. That was in Suttons bar and I wouldn’t recommend the hotel either. Dated rooms and uninterested staff.

The next day we went out to inchydoney beach where the kids had a great day. Ate in the hotel. She had monkfish and prawn scampi and I had a chicken bacon and cheese ciabatta with sweet potato fries. Food really good here and would visit again for beach and lunch.

That night, we went to the Elm Tree, been here many times before and keep going back. We shared a plate of wings for starters and for main I had fillet of salmon and Mrs B had chicken supreme. I may not be familiar with fine dining but this was some of the best food I’ve had. Everything cooked to perfection and decent quantity, couldn’t manage dessert. Service was v slow even at 5:30 but it was worth the wait. Will always come back when visiting cork. Salmon photo was taken after I’d started eating so presentation was a lot better than it looks

Any good coffee or coffee shops in Ballincollig please?

Boxt is great coffee place and dog friendly. Seating is limited though

so ended up at Sano Pizza - dog allowed indoors, server got him a bowl of water straight away - super and the pizza’s were pretty good too

This was a first for us that the dog was allowed inside - we have a smallie so is quite invisible and is no shed and slept mostly through the meal so don’t think anyone even noticed him - but even for a pizza without a dog - Sano is definitely one a good place

will do , thanks

anyone tried La Cantina in the marina market? have tried the venezuelan food truck in dublin (pacheco) and loved it so would be interested if anyone has an opinion on this one?

Have always liked Bunsen, but haven’t been there for ages tho…

It’s the simplicity that I love about it. You can actually taste the burger. If you go to Son of A Bun all you’re getting is a load of toppings.
