Service was awful. The place was packed with people who appeared to be waiting for their checks. I ordered something they called "posh eggs." It was a scrambled egg with a little bit of feta cheese and a hot sauce served over toast. They decorated it with flowers. My adult daughter ordered the protein pancakes, which were leaden and smothered with peanut butter, with a banana and blueberries on top.I think she had three bites. These things looked good but weren't all that great My daughter ordered coffee, I didn't. Bill was over €50. I don't mind paying for something that's delicious, but this was definitely not it.

Last week I embarked on something I had never, in all my 32 years, tried. Not eating. For six days…read more Yes, that is six full days. Instead I drank juice. Juice for breakfast, juice for lunch, juice for dinner and even a 'treat' juice as a snack. Honestly, I was unsure if I'd be able to get through a day, never mind a full six, but I gave it a bash. Lo and behold, it was easier than I thought. Perhaps because I was so full to the brim after Christmas of stodge and booze, that going the opposite direction towards fresh fruit and veg, was actually a pleasure. There is so much goodness packed into each bottle, I felt a little like I could feel the vitamins and minerals absorb in my body, like a superhero that had been on downtime for a while, getting fueled up again for the next watch. Granted, there may be a bit of a placebo affect taking place here, but you can be sure that those very vitamins and minerals are all counted and present too. The theory of a juice cleanse is after you replace all meals and snacks with juices made from (preferably organic) fruits and vegetables, our bodies are free from toxins (or freer than they were before). We are able to ingest a lot more fruits and veg by juicing rather than eating (if you've ever seen the amount that goes into one glass of juice, you'll understand this), so this enables a lot more nutrients to go into your body. Finally that it sets you on the path of eating more healthily after the stringent period is over. Having never done any of this before in my life, I decided to go the easy route and have some professionals do my juicing for me (just to get me started ye see!) My first three days were with Juices by Ginger (review to follow), and the next three days were with Dr Juice. I would recommend going down this route if you're new to juicing - these guys have brilliant machines and know the right ratio of ingredients to make the juices palatable (unlike my attempts since) So, Dr Juice. You get a full three days worth for €60 - that's 12 juices in total. You can either pick them up in their Temple Bar quarters (Staple Foods), or they'll deliver for a tenner. There's a full 500ml of juice in each bottle, which is labeled to show what exactly is inside and how long it's good for. They also come with a little leaflet giving you some tips on the cleanse, and how to ease yourself off it at the end. Here's how the juices go: Morning: The Green Goliath. Containing spinach, kale, cucumber (though I asked for it without this most evil of all vegetables), celery, apple, lemon, ginger and spirulina. If you haven't had spirulina before, it's got quite a pungant taste, so get ready. It's got a myriad of benefits though, so it's great that these guys include it - most of the other juices I've seen literally only include fruit and veg. Lunch: Beet Boxer. Containing beetroot, carrots, apple, pear and lime. This was really delicious and a pleasure to drink Snack: Orange Juice. I found it hilarious that this is called a 'treat' juice. Mainly because it's made of more fruit than veg. It contains carrots, apples and ginger. Again, delish. Dinner: Back to ye old Green Goliath. Really filling with the good old spirulina 'kick' And how the whole cleanse went? Besides some difficult moments when "friends" were taunting me with burgers and various forms of cheese, I was surprised that it wasn't overly difficult. The juices actually fill you up considerably - much more so than any crash diet. The most important thing for me though was to feel healthy afterwards, which I do. As many others before me have reported, I slept better, my energy levels went way higher, and my skin looked great. Now to keep it up! All in all, a really great service and product from Staple Foods. If you haven't tried it, give it a go! Be sure to give them some notice though, as they are busy enough with January detoxers.

I chose my own salad of spinach, roast chicken, feta cheese, scallions, pickled red onion, pickled red cabbage, sweet potatos. Everything was layered on top of each other in the bowl unlike side by side in their photos. There was so much pickled red onion that it took over the salad. Its all I could taste. The roast chicken? Well, it was more boiled badly processed tiny pieces of gristly chicken that was covered in something I couldn't recognise. But the worst part, was those tiny little flies you get over unwashed food and fruit. At least 3 of them flying around me after I took the lid off. I was completely disappointed in this and I hope it is not the standard in their restaurants. Won't be going back or recommending.

I consider myself a bit of a smoothie expert. An aficionado, if you will. Whereas some people can…read morestick their nose in a glass of wine and tell you where it came from, what kind of grapes were used, and even who stomped on said grapes to produce said wine. I wish I could do that, but instead I've decided to focus on the world of smoothies, no less sophisticated, I assure you. So obviously, I relish the chance to try a new smoothie place. I stepped into Zumo and was pleased with how clean and fresh it felt. They had a lot of options, and as usual, most of them included bananas. Bananas are my worst enemy, so I kindly asked if any of the banana-smoothies were available sans-evil fruit and the clerk cheerfully replied yes. Good news. The ingredients they used were all fresh and real - nothing syrupy or weirdly colorful. The smoothie was delicious and filling, and it can easily replace a meal if you're not THAT hungry at lunch. My only complaint was that it was a bit small.

With a price tag of €2.50 I think they are good value. As a celiac breakfast used to be my least favourite meal but not any more !!!

I picked up a small organic Japanese salad of edamame noodles, red pepper, courgette and arame, sesame seeds and a ginger soy dressing, and a big organic fruit salad for just under €8 euro - not as cheap as a sambo, but for all organic, it could be worse. It was grand, very fresh but surprisingly bland - I expected some kick from the ginger dressing which never came through. The fruit salad was tasty and fresh. I also sampled a few juices while there as they are newly opened and still doing promotion. Pretty nice all in all. I'm curious to try some of the other breakfast (they open early - good for us office folks) and lunch offerings, and their many kinds of hummus; if they bump up the flavor a bit on the dressing and perhaps consider cutting down on all the plastic containers, they may have a regular customer here.

I really like the idea of smoothies, although walking around town with one in your hand does make…read moreyou look rather the knob. Still, they are very tasty and much healthier than any other snack that you're likely to pick up on the go. Zumo is the market leader in Ireland's nascent smoothie industry, and if you picked up a franchise in the early days, you would have made an absolute killing. The stands are tiny so they'd have eff all overheads, and your only inputs are a load of fruit bought at wholesale prices. I have two little issues with Zumo. First of all, most of the smoothies on the menu contain banana as one of the central ingredients. I imagine that this is primarily for the purposes of viscosity, as most fruits are quite watery in nature, and the banana is required to give the smoothie its pleasant thickness. Personally, I am very fond of bananas and usually eat one every day, but I find that the addition of a banana to a smoothie gives the drink an overpowering banana flavour, which renders the majority of Zumo's menu out of bounds for me. More smoothies with yogurt substituted for banana, please. And this adding a shot of wheatgrass lark? Don't be taken in by the woo-meisters unsupported claims as to the magic medicinal properties of wheatgrass, it is essentially exactly as nutritious as any other green vegtable (marginally less, as a matter of fact). And another thing, €4 for what is essentially a few bits of fruit? You're having a bleedin' laugh, mate.
