Me and Mr Jane are going to Il Baccaro tonight, or we hope to, anyway. And if it's got the Dudley Seal of Approval, I'm regretting that I had such a big bowl of muesli for me lunch because I'll be wanting more of an appetite. Maybe I should spend the rest of the afternoon doing jumping jacks.

Yum yum yum.

I wasn't mad on Il Baccarro when I went there. They do give big portions though.

This is true. I did do a nice ten-mile run this morning, so I should be alright for grub by dinnertime. I'd better bloody be, or I'll be well miffed. I hate having such a, er, delicate constitution.

went to some italian place there opposite the porter house a few weeks ago, a whole load of us, and everyone thought it was pretty dull - nothing wrong with the food as such, just not very good - wouldnt recommend it. i think it was called ciao bella though, not sure. these might be two different places altogether.

terenure has a nonsensical number of italian restaurants for a nondescript suburban crossroads.

 

[Goodbye]

A regular haunt for me is Steps of Rome...
Pokey little joint off grafton st.
Best pizza, great pasta. very authentic... Bit of a squeese though.

Best of all, theres no faffy waiting staff and they leave you the fuck alone
