Milano, the Irish arm of the UK chain Pizza Express, has recently launched a new menu which was created by celebrity chef Francesco Mazzei.  Mazzei runs the Italian restaurant L’Anima in London, and has created 11 dishes for Milano.  Milano very kindly invited us along to try them out, and treated us to a very [...]

The other day I came home from work and looked in the fridge. I had nothing to eat. NOTHING. And my pay cheque is not due for another week. I was really hungry. After sitting on the sofa for a full ten-minute huff, I went back to the fridge and looked again. There must be [...]

Check out this current offer at Milano - two pizzas for €12 until October 4th. The offer doesn’t apply on Saturdays, but does include their low-fat Leggera pizza.

Secondly, something as basic as rice or noodles costs extra. These are normally included in the price of most takeaway meals, so this [...]

Gotham Cafe has been on South Anne St for donkey’s years and has always maintained a strong level of popularity.   The new website MummyMaps recommended Gotham as a good place for kids, so I suggested it when two friends and I decided to take our little girls for Saturday lunch.  It has an extensive menu, [...]
