Stopped in for lunch on one of the opening days and tbh was a little bit manic but that just down to finding feet, have been in since and things have calmed down. The first thing you notice when you enter is the woodfire pizza oven! then you'll start to pick up on how trendy the building is.. if Pizza isn't your thing the mosey on over to the sandwich counter and purchase a very tasty sambo.. My person favourite is the Roast Chicken & Stuffing sambo, ask for it to be toasted! nom nom & very filling which is great value at €6.95! Once again another welcome addition to the Sandyford area..

Most memorable moment? The education I received for wanting to order Sunny Side Up Eggs - which is…read morea reasonable request considering the Irish breakfast did say eggs of your choice. But this being Ireland, "your choice" includes scrambled, poached, or fried. "This ain't the Waffle House", said the server to this yankee. Not to be deterred, I asked which is the recommendation, they said to get the scrambled, which came with Irish butter concoction. Beautiful. The meal was huge - I would always recommend it as a morning meal. I thought the black and white pudding delicious and the sausages were just insanely huge in portion. Not a bad problem. I brought some back to the hotel to my daughter who was sleeping in (college student problem). I also went to the to go counter and ordered some porridge and pasty to go along with a flat white (which still has not hit San Francisco). Flat white is the right kind of coffee. This nice neighborhood restaurant is a great place to eat breakfast if you are staying at the Radisson Blu St. Helen. A short walk. Great ambience. Excellent food - just don't order sunny side up eggs :-)!

Everything was fresh, light and the bread had a good crunch to it. The sandwiches were very flavorful and filling. The hazelnuts in the broccoli salad added a lovely fresh crunch to it. The shop had lots of teas, jams and take away foods. Everything seemed reasonably priced for Dublin.

The opening of Intermission, where a rather dashing Colin 'Feckin' Farrell headbutts a young waitress! Actually when I read that back it doesn't sound so funny, but believe me it is! Apart from that, it is a really cool modern deli, great for lunches and just chilling with friends. It is a pretty trendy place, especially for a place like Rathfarnham Shopping Centre. All neutral coordinating browns and creams and whites with lots of wood, leather and glass features! Even the bathrooms are cool. The food is great too, awesome sambos and buffalo chicken pasta is really taste and only €7 for a grand size portion! Good coffee and cakes and muffins and that sort of stuff too and they don't mind if you take your time and just sip your drink and chat and chill friends!

Frango's is on the top floor of the Dundrum Town Centre and has a couple of sections to it. It's…read morealmost like a mini food hall in itself. There's a counter where you can get sandwiches, paninis and wraps and another section devoted to pizza. Then, there is a third section where you can get more of a main meal - there are hot dishes serving food like shepards pie, curry, stir fry's etc. It's a good place to go if you want a bit of variety, and would be quite suitable for young families. The food isn't amazing, but tasty nonetheless.

As was said before Frangos is made up of four different food counters. In the middle is a really…read morelarge open space with lots and lots of seating. i think this food court mirrors what dundrum is aspiring to be, its not full of commoner food like McDonalds and and pizza hut (i say this withmy tounge in my cheek!)but it has independent food counters that i have never seen anywhere else and so it is kind ofexclusive and morespecial than otherfood courts in other shopping centres! unfortunately the prioces are reflected in this too. before i start on the food i will say that i love to go eat here in the middle of summer when the sun is shining, they have to lovely terrace areas outside which are perfect for a long relaxing lunch in the sun. now, the food, as was said before there is a pizza counter where you can get yummy oven baked pizzas, they have a good "slice and a drink" deal or you can get a whole pizza frexhly made up. then there is the sandwich counter which is nothing special really, nice sandwiches, nice presentation and nice servers but just a sandwich shop at the end of the day. down the back is a coffee and bun counter, good for aquick cup of coffee if your not up for a full lunch. lastly there is an area that you can get big proper lunches, like a carvery, or pastas or things like pie or lasagne with chips. it all looks very fancy but really i dont think the quality of this food is very good at all. anyway, that pretty much sums the whole place up, great place for a long lunch but not overly exciting and a bit pricey!

All of those were special and prepared with love I would definitely return to the wine cellar. And recommend it to other travelers.

We were fortunate to stay in one of the apartment…read morerooms above the cafe and were welcomed to a complimentary coffee and pastry for breakfast during our stay. The cafe is super cute; one side is more of a restaurant scene with tables, menu, and waitresses and waiters on hand. The other side is more of grabbing something quick to eat and/or drink. I've tried the raspberry muffin. It was so fresh and good words cannot even describe it. I'm more of a blueberry muffin person but being that was not an option at the time I chose raspberry and I did not regret it. My fiancé and I also tried the Irish breakfast (I posted a pic and noted what it consisted of). So awesome! A hearty breakfast was a great way to start a day of exploring in Dublin. The next day, I tried the croissant and scone. They pretty much melted in my mouth. As you walk in the cafe, you could smell how fresh everything was. Anyway, we had planned to drive to the Cliffs of Moher that day and decided to get a couple of sandwiches and saw they had a variety of choices to choose from. I ended up creating my own sandwich; it was super delicious! Even when we ate it hours later, it was still good. We tried the Irish cheese and onion chips and it blew my mind. It's similar to the sour cream and onion here in the states but a hundred times better. I found myself looking for more onion and cheese chips during my stay in Ireland. The cafe started open later than other cafes I'm used to but we never made it back in time. With good prices and great food we probably would have eaten breakfast, lunch, and dinner there. I would definitely visit this place again if I ever get the opportunity to return to Dublin. It made our visit a truly remarkable one.
