Lunchin’ Dublin (1 Viewer)

[nuke terrorist]

foodies telling us we need to spend more time unnecessarily preaparing food or lecturing us that we don't enjoy food enough are even more annoying than I am.

Yeah can't really have butter or margarine in the house here so i just eat bread as bread for too here. It's nice - tiny bit of olive oil maybe.

Fancy bastard.

To remind myself of why I either need to bring in a lunch or buy a decent lunch, I bought a pre-packed Fresh Ways egg sandwich today and it was gank.

Bad gank. Rubbery tasteless slop.

It's about 1/8 the price too

Cali Carnitas burrito from Pablo Picante on Dawson Street. Pork, rice, cheese, beans, and salsa - with guacamole as an extra. Really nice and properly filling but always makes me miss the Little Ass Burrito Bar that used to be at that address. By far the best burrito place in Dublin at the time (during peak burrito). Pablo’s is the next best, way better than Boojum.

delicious - but a recipe for a sleepy afternoon

El Grito are the big bosses. Everything else is a pale imitation.

It's worth it.

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but if you cab handle the queues in the Visitors' Centre in the Phoenix park, the salads there are fantastic.
Sometimes (once) my wife goes in for lunch and gets (got) me a take out and brought it home, fab.

Ordered two slices of pizza from Café di Napoli on Westland Row today. One margarita and one ham and mushroom. Really good and only €3.25 per slice. Kind of want another one now.

On mexican related issues, Bounceback cafe on Thomas Street ain't half bad. Good for a bean burrito (cheap). El Grito is seconded/thirded as good for a very large greedy kind of lunch

Was out in Dun Laoghaire on Friday and went for lunch with my wife. We went to Kyoto and had three types of Dim Sum (chicken satay, teriyaki beef, and some kind of lamb), fried rice and kimchi. Think it was about €25 for the two of us. Good feed and very nice - would never have thought of lamb in dim sum before.
