One Of My Favourite Places To Eat Out!!!!…read more The Food Is Extremely Tasty and The Staff Service Is Amazing Highly Recommend D'Vine

Drogheda doesn't seem like it's exactly buzzing with interesting places to eat, and it was by pure…read moreluck that we came across d'Vine on a sunny Sunday afternoon. The two connecting dining rooms are amazing and cozy, with a big bar counter at the back, wine racks and a huge assortment of whimsical objects or artwork around the place. Upstairs there's a terrace where you can fully enjoy their tapas menu and maybe even go for a cocktail. There's a set dishes menu, a smaller tapas menu and also the specials of the day, written on a big blackboard - that our hostess kindly perched on a chair in front of our table, improptu style. In both fixed menus there are many vegetarian and/or gluten free options. The wine list was interesting enough, though not perfect. I managed to find a beautiful spanish Verdejo there, so that must count for something. We were served delicious food and the only thing I can point is that my vegetarian stuffed zucchini had a bit too much cheese, but other than that everything was good and their special of the day, salmon, was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately we were both too full to try the desserts, but at least we got to to wrap our lunch up with a nice espresso.

Best vegetarian meal I may have ever had: curry vegetables, potatoes and lentils were incredible.

I booked a late reservation here at the Muddler's Club. I came solo and got dropped off by a taxi…read more I got a little lost while trying to find the restaurant. It's pretty hidden in the alley and not going to lie...coming to a new city, let alone a new country by myself was a bit intimidating, but I found it just in time for my reservation. I absolutely loved my first Michelin Star restaurant experience. I was born in Belfast, and have never been back since I was born, so I enjoyed every opportunity to tell a server. The staff was so friendly and described every dish. I ordered the Seasonal Tasting MenuEach dish was excellent. My favorite was probably the duck and the savory mousse pastries. Food in order of serving: 1. Sourdough Guinness bread with vanilla butter and olive oil 2. Olive sponge crab and apple, chicken and caramel with some type of mousse 3. Scallops, cucumber frothy brown butter 4. Bluefin tuna tartare with avocado and heirloom tomato 5. Halibut with crispy chicken skin 6. Duck 7. Sorbet and then....my phone died before I could write down the other yummy dishes I ate! The ambience was dark, romantic, and vibey. A little mysterious because of the hidden aspect, but overall I loved my whole experience here.

My weekday dinner at Muddler's Club seemed a bit directionless…read more The food is excellent, taste, flavor combinations and présentation. That is not the concern. The space itself has a very long and interesting history, just over 40 seats have been cramped into that space. A couple tables have small glass walls to separate them and squeeze in more diners. And it's pretty loud. So loud, I can barely hear the sommelier describe her wines. There may have been music playing... but who can hear? There seems to be an attempt to elevate the bartender over the sommelier, with the menu encouraging the guests to try specialty cocktails instead of selecting whole bottles of wine. And the bartender's constant ice shaker only adds to the noise. The service is very relaxed, with servers in t-shirts and jeans, sneakers, paper napkins. And the servers seemed a bit inattentive, watching the chefs through the pass, not paying attention to guests' needs. Oh, and the server even wrote "thank you" on the printed bill... How kind. Excellent Flair. Pure Chotchkie's. For the food, I'll return. 2025 04 16. M1. 235.

This is the wine bar offering from the folk behind Michelin starred restaurant Ox (which is also…read morenext door!) I absolutely loved it here and can't wait until my next visit. For any wine lovers out there, the sparkling red is an absolute must try. We also asked the waitress to bring us out a selection of cheeses as we weren't too sure what to get. She brought us out three different types to compliment our choice of wine, and they were fantastic. The staff are very knowledgeable, so if you aren't too sure what to order, just ask. Organising my next visit already!

Recently visited here after dining at Ox (the Ox staff were more than forward when recommending you…read morevisit Cave afterwards). Very dark, but quite a cosy little place. Excellent choice of cheese and wines (I highly recommend the Aged Comté with Truffled Honey). Prices are slightly high, but if you're planning a night out dining at Ox, it's a nice convenient place to go afterwards to relax.

There are daily specials, including a daily cheesecake... That's a win! I saw smiles on two out of the five employees, so maybe it's an OK place to work, also.

We treated ourselves to a date night down in Newcastle and we weren't disappointed. The service was very attentive and friendly, making recommendations and not overbearing rushing us through our dinner. We started with a couple of cocktails, a Juniper Orchid and a prosecco and passion fruit sorbet float. I would happily have sat here all night and just drank the cocktails! I had to start chicken liver parfait with brioche and Chutney, rich and flavoursome, and my bf had soup, I can't remember what type but there were little crispy bits of bacon, he devoured it! My mains Oven Roasted Chicken withSmoked Corn and Roast Garlic mash, I think chicken dinners can get a bit samey, but this was amazing, delicious and just the right size. We opted to stare then chocolate fondant and a few more cocktails. Although it was on the prices side it was absolutely work it and we are already talking about when we are going back!!

'An American in Belfast.'…read more Bert's Jazz Bar was a gem of a bar in Belfast. A thorough review of my Yelp would show a strong love of jazz and New Orleans, and somehow we stumbled on this gilded age bar in the heart of Belfast. Rich red velvet and a strong nod to New Orleans and the jazz age was backed up by a strong cocktail program with nods to New Orleans, NYC, London and Paris. Oh to find a Time Machine and try each class cocktail during the jazz age in each city. My favorite cocktail of all time is the New Orleans classic - Ramos Gin Fizz. Labeled on the menu as a 'one and only', this somewhat finicky and difficult cocktail came out nearly perfect and better than many I've sampled in NOLA. Would love to return for live music and food!

Got to do a wee update of my previous review of AM:PM after last night's shenanigans. This review…read moreis for Cabaret Super Club who were incidentally celebrating their 13th Birthday last night. As part of these birthday celebrations they gave an audience of 100 people plus a taster of what Cabaret was all about. The evening started with a crooner who was built in the mould of the original rat pack, he took on some Sinatra classics as well as some other classic sing alongs. The evening was hosted by the unbelievably entertaining Robert who sang all the classics and engaged with the audience in hilarious fashion (sitting in the front row I was inevitably on the end of some of his quips). Between Robert's songs there were talented burlesque dancers who wouldn't have been out of place in the Moulin Rouge. The club itself is deceptively roomy and the acoustics are perfect for these type of shows. There's not many other places in Belfast that couple eating and entertainment so if you haven't been down to the super club then I would suggest booking yourself in - you are guaranteed great entertainment and value for money.

So me and my mum and a couple of friends hit the Cabaret Supper club last night for their 13th…read moreBirthday bash. I've been to the venue before a few times for the general show and for some tribute acts. We were greeted at the door with a glass of bubbly, which lets face it kicks any night off to a good start! Seating wasn't assigned so being nice and early we managed to nab seats right at the front of the stage! (I believe you can reserve tables as well) Entertainment kicked off with a swing and blues singer who was very good. I love the style of music anyway so it was right up my street, My mum and I also got stuck in to a bottle of prosecco. It was nice but at the pricey range of some I've bought. At £32 a bottle it was good stuff, but I wouldn't be hurrying for more except on a special occasion. After the first bit of Entertainment platters of 'tappas' style buffet trays were brought round. This was a little different for me as I'd only ever eaten the full sit down dinner before in the venue (Which are great) The food was fantastic, but I think we chose the wrong seat. We had a few nibbles from the first tray and then the rest seemed to pass us by for the rest of the night. So in the end we got enough to fight off the hunger but were left wanting more. (The selection was great ranging from mini-burgers, fries, chicken goujons, pork belly and other little finger foods) The burgers especially were delicious. After food the main show kicked off. Our main host of the night was Robert Brown. I've worked with Robert in the past and I know how great a performer he is so it was nice to see other people who hadn't react to him. I was particularly impressed by the drag performer Cherrie who had an amazing voice and a great repertoire of songs, and off course the Burlesque girls were amazing. (There was a gentleman in the audience I am sure was drooling at one point and was completely mesmerised by the whole show. Also props for the girl who did the take on Jessica Rabbits scene from 'Who framed Roger Rabbit!) We finished up the second half of the show with a nice bottle of Chilean rose wine. It was nice, but again a tad on the pricey side, at £18 a bottle, just above the average and with a nice sweet bouquet it was ok, but think I'll hit the pints next time to save the wallet so close to the end of the month. Overall the Cabaret Supper Club is a great night out, the performance is great and the food is good. (I think the average price for dinner and show is around £30 per head so its very good value) Its a unique experience that will leave you wanting to come back for more. Bravo!
