What a find and well worth the trek to Maynooth. Greene's is a bistro located beside the river on Maynooth Main Street and their food is fantastic. Nothing pretentious, beautiful locally sourced produce, served to accentuate the flavours rather than to smother if you know what I mean. I started with a greek salad with a lemon and basil dressing and St. Tola Goat's cheese. Perfect! But oh my god the main dish blew me away, Surf n'turf....a 6oz fillet steak which cut like butter and melted in the mouth, 6 very large and ever so meaty and juicy crab claws served on a bed of bacon and onion mash and a garlic butter sauce, all washed down with a very nice chablis wine recommended by our courteous waiter. The dessert I chose was creme brulee with a raspberry sorbet and it was perfect. Nice dark crisp caramel layer and perfect custard consistency in the brulee. The sorbet was tart but not sour. Sheer perfection. Now all I have to do is find an excuse to go back to Maynooth!. read more
