Ireland's Most Exciting New Restaurants - 10 of the BestQuality informal dining may still be on the rise, but fine dining is far from dead - and, while different, the new fine dining is finding a ready niche. Many of the most exciting new Irish openings are small - perhaps less than two dozen covers - the USP for several is fire pit cooking, and all have warmth teamed with professionalism and a strong sense of place. Here are just ten recent openings from around the country that have quickly claimed ‘must-visit’ status - a meal at any ... -

HARVEST BREAKSGeorgina Campbell suggests some interesting destinations for an off-season break at this time of plenty.

FOR BREAKFAST - TEN OF THE BESTThe promise of a good breakfast is often the clinching factor when deciding where to book for a short break - and quite right too, as going the extra mile with breakfast tells you a great deal about a place and the way it is run. It’s something that we at the Guide feel strongly enough about to make it the focus of a new standalone awards initiative, and the ‘Georgina Campbell Irish Breakfast Awards 2017- In Association with Failte Ireland’ were hosted recently by Dublin&rs ... -

SUNDAY LUNCH - TEN OF THE BESTAlthough always popular, Sunday lunch has moved into a whole new phase of late and it can be a seriously classy outing, where the venue is chosen with care so that family members of all ages can get together in lovely surroundings and enjoy the very best of food - and at a more reasonable price than is usual at dinner. It’s an especially appealing proposition in spring too, as the days are lengthening - perhaps a voucher could be the perfect treat for Mother’s Day. And accommodat ... -

FOR FOOD TOURISTS - TEN OF THE BESTThere’s a growing feeling that Ireland is now ready to focus on the needs of the ‘food tourist’, as opposed to the visitor who simply enjoys good food as part of the overall experience. The true food tourist (international and domestic) will choose their holiday destination specifically to explore it through its food. -
