If you've overdosed on coffee for the day but in need of some quick energy, why not grab a smoothie…read moreto sip on while wandering around the shops in the Dundrum Town Centre. Boost is a juice bar on the second floor of the Shopping Centre, located right next to the escalator. There are lots of combos to choose from. I recommend the banana-vanillayoghurt-boost. You can also get freshly squeezed juices and as the counter is lined with fresh fruit you know you're in for a treat. Its not cheap but it sure is tasty, and healthy, and gives you exactly the boost you need to stay sane inside the mall.

Hands up, I struggle with the most important meal of the day. Im just not good with solids in the…read moremorning. Boost in DD shopping centre has a range of really tasty and smoothies to get a decent but healthy dose of sugar. At €4.50 it doesn't cost an arm and a leg and is a genuine pick-me-up plus a healthier alternative to coffee. I recommend the breakfast to go with muesli in it or the strawberry fantasy for a nice banana and strawberry mixture. I also found the fact that you get to watch the fruit smoothies being made live very a-peeling... (sorry). Well worth a visit. Could be a good way to get the younger generation to get their five-a-day!

In the morning, its just a quick stop and grab (grande latte) and then the odd time I stay for lunch (they do some really nice paninis and a fantastic club sandwich) I've been going for almost two years and the service is what really sets it apart form the rest, plenty on the menu and good for a lunch meet up!

No, your eyes aren't fooling you -there's another Cafe Java in Dublin…read more Settled on Shelbourne Road for more than a year now, this incarnation of Cafe Java maintains the same quality of tasty lunches, desserts and coffee. The single table outside is on an awkward corner, which makes for uncomfortable pedestrian-encounters when having a coffee outside, The spicy chicken wrap is still my first love, I recommend ordering it hot with a cold soda ... heaven. If there's no time to sit in the small restaurant (or if there's no seats, which is more often the case), order it cold to go with a fresh baked cookie. Java's till-side cold case stocks a few wrapped versions of the sandwiches available in-shop, but hurry down as they run out quickly (except, strangely, for the tuna sandwiches).

This new branch if Sprout just opened the day I went on Rogerson's Quay in a cool looking brick…read morebuilding overlooking the Liffey, right near the Samuel Beckett bridge on the south side. For anyone who has been to their branches on Dawson or Mount street, the food is pretty much the exact same; delicious healthy salads, customisable salad bowels with a variety of ingredients from falafel, quinoa and hummus to butternut squash, salad vegetables, meat and grains. For the custom bowel, you can choose a leafy base (spinach, kale etc), 2 vegetables, 1 grain (e.g. brown rice, quinoa), 1 protein (chicken, falafel, salmon etc) and a dressing for €8.95, which is what I usually do and find the price pretty good. They also have their own signature salads and wraps as well, plus a daily soup and 3Fe coffee! On their first day, they gave a free veggie juice of your choice, and I went for the supergreen one which was pretty good. Sprout just screams super healthy with all the green everywhere, but it's also good quality and very tasty. The inside of the cafe is very clean and organised, the seating is not a lot but I heard that they plan on expanding it soon. They also do take away. The staff are very nice and efficient with the queues, and the prices are fairly reasonable; most things being less that €10. There is a loyalty card where every 10th salad is free! Overall: A salad lover's dream! Food: 5/5 Seating: 3.5/5 Variety: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Price: Reasonable

For those who don't know Ballymaloe refers to the Allen family who among other things operate a pretty pricy place to eat, stay and/or attend cookery school. I asked for and got a generous splodge of the relish and the bread roll it was put into was very tasty too. I could have opted instead for a wrap, a panini, a bagel or white or brown bread. Phew too much choice. So they met my specified requirements. A few cheese & onion crisps on the side were very welcome and tasty too. My wife opted for a BLT without cheese, which seemed to come as standard. She had a fab cappuccino. She too enjoyed her generous tasty portion and the cheese & onion crisps.
