Thanks to the following restaurants for their support:
The Cottage Leitrim
Located on the main road into Jamestown Village, Co. Leitrim. The Cottage Restaurant nestles into a scenic quiet spot by the river and Weir, with parking on the road. The traditional half door entrance to the restaurant, leads into a bright, contemporary dining space. Though nestled in a quite location, The Cottage Restaurant is anything but that. With a reputation for excellence, great taste and the friendliest customer service, it’s no wonder that this little gem which is just 5 miles from Carrick on Shannon, is known not just locally or nationally but globally!
Tartare Galway
Tartare is a new cáfe and wine bar located on lower Dominick Street in Galway’s Westend. By day, it serves the best sourdough sandwiches, soups, organic salads and coffee. By night, it transforms into a hip wine bar focusing on organic, biodynamic and natural wine. The food offering at night changes too, with plates of oysters, Dexter beef, pickled fish and cured meat and artisan cheese boards. Great for a nibble and a glass of wine or something more substantial.
1826 in Adare
The rustic cottage setting and chic country décor, paired with food offering freshness, simplicity and keen pricing to match, make a winning combination. Seasonal local produce is the foundation of Chef Wade Murphy's food philosophy, so menus change on a monthly basis, and there are blackboard specials such as whole sole, braised meats and so on changing daily. Signature dishes include: Warm Chicken Liver salad, with Piccalilli, pickles and Bally greens and Head to Tail Free Range Pork Tasting Plate.
Charlotte Quay in Dublin
The latest venture by Marc and Conor Bereen, of Coppinger Row, the stylish restaurant maintains the standards for great food and a welcoming atmosphere that has made such a success of its city centre sister restaurant.
