Testing Dublin

In this blog, we are sharing our thoughts about Dublin (Ireland, not Ohio). We have the following in common: we are interested in good food, and like to enjoy it in good company!

The testing will not be limited to food only. For example, we are also planning to see a Gaelic Football game together.

So this is what we have learned in Dublin!

Remark: The ratings are from 1 (bad) to 6 (excellent).

Food
"I had the homemade Pork and Apple sausage (apple was a bit lost), skillfully combined with red onions. (...) Really good food, amazing value (2 courses, 21,50€)."
"Unusually sophisticated vegetarian food, most restaurants lack the necessary inspiration, when it comes to vegetarian food; here they really put some effort into it."
"Chef doesn't seem to use salt."
Risotto pumpkin and goat cheese: "Again, tasty, but no salt. NOT HOT ENOUGH. Interesting flavour combination (pumpkin, spring onion, subtle goat cheese)."
Pear poached in red wine, with home made cookies: "incredibly delicious, wonderful!"
Drink
"Beer too warm, coffee non-descript."
Toilet
"Three stalls, soap dispenser working - and even flushing was possible!"
Ambience
"Very friendly + lively place, nice service. A bit noisy and crowded, but for our group of 4 it's great."
"Nice warm light, but really noisy."
"The greasy, dirty fan at the ceiling was a bit disgusting."
